Speaking about her start in television and radio to The Guardian back in 2005, she said: "After graduating, with student debt up to my eyes, I hit it lucky by winning a Search for a Star competition run by the Birmingham-based radio station BRMB.

What are Margherita Taylor's interests? 

The TV personality has previously spoken about how much she loves to travel, as she told The Guardian: "I'm about to go to the Canaries for GMTV and to Trinidad for a Radio 2 documentary. I feel like I am just starting. In the future I hope to devise and produce my own programmes, but after ten years in broadcasting, I am still having the most fun ever."

Her profile on Performing Artistes reads: "As well as recently working in Trinidad and the Canaries, Margherita has also had adventures on a road trip across the USA, swam in the Blue Lagoon in Iceland, climbed Ayres Rock in Australia, skydived in Los Angeles and shared a meal with monks at a monastery in Hong Kong."
