Megan McCubbin, 27, is the wildlife-loving step-daughter of nature expert Chris Packham, 61.The star has opened up about what it was like growing up in the spotlight, despite the term “famous” making Chris “squirm”, in an exclusive interview with Express.co.uk.Megan, who has recently teamed up with Lovat Parks, spoke about the wondrous benefits of “connecting to our wild side” this summer, as she had a fantastic experience growing up around wild animals thanks to famed wildlife expert Chris. Asked whether growing up around such a high-profile figure prepared her for show business, which seems worlds away from her outdoor pursuits, she confirmed that it had. “Yeah, I'm quite used to it,” she reflected. "I mean, if you called him [Chris] famous to his face he’d probably squirm a little bit. “But I suppose so; I’m used to people coming up to him and saying hello and being very friendly.“For me, it’s lovely - I’m just so grateful that everyone's been so welcoming to me on something like Springwatch, which people love so much.“I'm grateful that people are incredibly supportive, and they've given me that kind of opportunity.”Springwatch viewers have previously expressed their delight at seeing Chris and Megan’s effortless chemistry on screen thanks to their close relationship. Speaking about their rapport on the show, Megan said: “We have a great relationship with one another and we have a lot of fun.“I think we learn from each other in different ways.
