She said: “When I got the call, it took me all of five seconds to say yes! I was a huge fan of the show back in the nineties and as an obsessive home cook, renovator and lover of helpful home hacks, I was born for this role.”

The radio legend will be joined on air by a team of expert presenters, handpicked from Australia’s best content creators.

Healthy, Wealthy and Wise was originally broadcast by Network Ten but is being brought back by Seven and WTFN Entertainment, the creators of Bondi Vet, Paramedics and The Living Room.

Viewers will be given all the best lifestyle tips and tricks from the studio and locations around Australia.
