Why I turned my back on my TV news career

12 April

Recently I appeared in Woman magazine – a small section in a feature entitled, “Meet the regret-me-nots”

My piece was headlined, “I regretted becoming a full-time mum”, which isn’t strictly accurate – rather I found myself, like many mums who give up professional life for stay-at-home motherhood, feeling a certain wistfulness for opportunities forgone. I also experienced the loss of self-esteem that many women feel when they no longer have a full-time, possibly high-flying career. In fact, when I stopped being a television news presenter, even my own mother (herself a career woman) stopped boasting about me. After all, I was just a mum now, wasn’t I?
