Television’s never been so real, honest, or unpredictable. Life isn’t perfect, so let’s not pretend it is – let’s help each other out, have a giggle, and make every show a conversation worth having so kick off your shoes and come and join me for lunch, relax with a bit of me time and let’s have a ball!”

Whether she’s talking about relationships, parenting, gossip or fashion, Vanessa will guarantee open, honest, and fun discussions. Expect celebrities as you’ve never seen them before, real life confessions, commiserations and celebrations – with the agenda set by the viewer.
