Fern's love of extra sleep after quitting show

05/07/2010

Fern Britton, former presenter of the This Morning show, has revealed the boost to her life no longer fronting the programme has provided - including getting more sleep.

The 54-year-old stopped presenting the show last year and believes it has brought considerable benefits.

She told Reveal magazine: "I'm having a ball. I'm behaving badly and enjoying life. I've been sleeping quite a lot.

"I feel great and people have said that I look well."

Her husband, the television chef Phil Vickery, is also enjoying spending more time with her, she added, as she does not have to stick to such a busy schedule.

Last month, Fiona Phillips, the ex-GMTV presenter, told the Daily Mirror early mornings are one of the hardest things to get used to when working on the show.
