Clare Balding is one of Britain's leading sports broadcasters, with a BAFTA Special Award and RTS Presenter of the Year Award under her belt for her coverage of the Olympics.
This summer, the presenter returns to our screens for the 2024 Paris Olympics, heading up the BBC's coverage of the three-week international sporting event.
When the sports commentator isn't situated in the French capital for the Olympic Games or travelling for her work, she's often enjoying some downtime at her charming Chiswick home with her wife Alice Arnold and their two cats Eric and Button.
"I used to live in Putney and when we decided to move in together, Alice said: ‘we can live anywhere you want, as long as it's Chiswick.' So that was it really," Clare told ChiswickW4 of her move to the leafy London suburb.
Speaking at the 2021 Spring Lectures for The Upper Room, Clare spoke of her love for being at home. "I make sure I walk every day, so the tow path between Chiswick Bridge and Kew Bridge is very well trodden for me. I try and do five miles a day minimum… I understand much more now what I need to keep me on track."
