BBC Breakfast Sally Nugent's mystery husband and rare glimpse into stunning home

Sally Nugent was confirmed as the new host of BBC Breakfast earlier this week.

The 50-year-old broadcaster is set to replace Louise Minchin on the iconic red sofa after she left the show in September.

Sally's permanent slot alongside Dan Walker will begin on Monday - and she revealed she can't wait to get started.

She said: "I'm absolutely thrilled to become the new presenter of BBC Breakfast and bring the nation the latest news, top entertainment guests and stories that matter every week."

Away from the screen, Sally keeps her home life incredibly private - as Mirror Online reports.

The presenter has never revealed her husband's identity and the couple share one baby son together.

She took to social media to confirm that her husband bought her a beautiful "blue for a boy" vintage ring following the arrival of their son, with Sally describing the piece of jewellery as one of her favourites.

A family member who does make regular appearances on her Instagram feed is her pet dog Sadie.

During lockdown, Sally converted a room in her home to a makeshift gym, with a spin bike as she took on the Big Bike In challenge.

She shared a snap of the bike sat in the middle of one of the high ceiling rooms in her home, which also have stunning parquet flooring.

She wrote alongside the snap: "This is my before picture for the #bigbikein. No one will ever see the 'after'. Really enjoyed my 30 miles. The brilliant @louiseminchin is still pedalling. She’s doing a hundred ! #nhs#stayathome#savelives."

Sally also has a traditional piano in her home too, where she works on her musical prowess, as she learned to play Adele's hit track Make You Feel My Love with the help of a metronome.

Sally's house decor is very minimalist, but she added a sparkle to her home with stunning fairy lights, which she has wrapped around her banister.

In the day, the light from the huge window floods the stairs, whilst the windowsill is decorated with a display of photo frames, sharing some of her most important family photos.
