Andrea Byrne's biography

At a glance

  • ITV News presenter and broadcast journalist
  • BAFTA award winning Wales at Six anchor
  • Making Babies podcast host and fertility advocate
Andrea Byrne is a respected television presenter and journalist, widely recognised as one of the faces of ITV News. She anchors the BAFTA award-winning Wales at Six and has fronted national bulletins including ITV Weekend News and News at Ten. Her broadcast career spans major breaking news, award-winning current affairs, and high-profile interviews, including an exclusive with Prince Harry. In 2024, Andrea published her first book Desperate Rants and Magic Pants, a candid account of her seven-year journey through infertility and depression. The book explores the emotional complexities of fertility treatment and encourages more open conversations about a subject often hidden in silence. Building on her experience and public platform, Andrea also hosts the Making Babies podcast, where she speaks with guests about fertility, parenthood and wellbeing. Together, the book and podcast reflect her commitment to breaking taboos and helping others feel less alone. Andrea is a regular contributor to Cardiff Life magazine, a former presenter of current affairs and documentary series including Wales This Week and Crime Files, and a trusted host and moderator for major conferences and awards events. She is known for combining clarity and authority with warmth and relatability. She is a Patron of Kidney Wales, an Ambassador for the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Scheme, and a supporter of charities including Tomorrow’s Generation and Macmillan Cymru. She also helped introduce Mental Health First Aiders in ITV newsrooms, championing workplace wellbeing. Andrea holds degrees in English Literature, Politics and Journalism and is a Fellow of the British American Project. Away from work, she is a keen runner, paddle-boarder and yoga enthusiast, and lives in Wales with her husband Lee and their daughter. Through her writing, broadcasting and public speaking, Andrea brings lived experience, journalistic insight and compassion to topics that matter.
