‘Was in pain!’ Steph McGovern’s fear filming BBC Breakfast due to undiagnosed illness
Steph’s Packed Lunch presenter Steph McGovern, 40, has given an insight into her “terrible” struggles with IBS and how it once had a huge impact on her life and work in an exclusive interview with Express.co.uk.The former BBC Breakfast star also spoke about how she has since made a new breakthrough with her health thanks to expert Dr. Julia Jones.Steph has been very open about her struggles with IBS in the past, regularly posting about the subject on her Instagram feed.The star worked on BBC Breakfast as its main business presenter from 2010 to 2019 and, while she suffered badly from its symptoms, she hadn’t yet been diagnosed with IBS.“It was horrendous!” Steph remembered, but I do what people tend to do which is to just go, ‘Oh, I’ve just got one of those tummy things, I’ve just got dodgy bowels”.“When I was doing Breakfast Telly, I wouldn't eat until I'd finished broadcasting because, even if I was starving, I'd be so worried about having to run to the loo,” she admitted.“And I would have to work out where the toilets were because I was obviously on location a lot.“So I'd be in a field or a farm or whatever, and then as soon as I finished I’d have a bacon sandwich, which is the worst thing you can have.”According to the NHS website, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common condition that affects the digestive system.It causes symptoms like stomach cramps, bloating, diarrhoea and constipation - and it’s usually a lifelong problem. Steph then went on to recall her frustration at finding that even when she tried to be kind to her body, it still wouldn't play ball.“Instead I might try to be healthy and have a smoothie,” she remembered.
