BBC Breakfast has recently had a huge shake-up in its presenters and rota, with the departure of long-standing hosts Dan Walker and Louise Minchin.

Walker departed the show after six years of presenting, on Tuesday, May17, 2022, and headed to pastures new at Channel 5 and 5 News.

At the time, he said: “I’m really excited, but this has also been a massive decision for me because I love BBC Breakfast, I love working alongside Sally [Nugent] and I love the team there.

“But Channel 5 came with big ambitions, with big plans and I don’t think opportunities like this come round very often. I can’t wait."

Sally Nugent is now one of the regular hosts of BBC One’s morning news show BBC Breakfast. However, many wonder if the presenter is married and what days she’s on the screen.

Here’s everything you need to know.

The couple have one child together, but details of their name or age have been kept private.

While the 50-year-old presenter posts frequently on Instagram, she avoids sharing photos of her family.

In the past, Nugent has shared photos of her pet dog, a Cavapoo called Sadie who has her own Instagram account.

However, the account has been inactive since 2018.
