Fern reflected on the powerful moment she decided to take back control of her health.

She told the publication: ‘People often wonder when you lose lots of weight whether you’ve done it naturally. 

‘And I can look at you and say, “Yes, I have”.’

‘I had my shoulder replacement 18 months ago, and two-and-a-half years ago, when I saw the surgeon, he said, “I’m going to totally replace your shoulder, I’ll see you in a year.” 

‘I thought, “I need to get my life back on track. I need to stop smoking, stop drinking, get eating under control and stop lying in bed feeling sorry for myself”. 

‘So I started the Couch to 5k, took about 80 per cent of the sugar out of my life and started to think about what I was eating, which I had never done before.’

Five years ago, the presenter moved permanently into her Cornish holiday home before renovating it ‘bit by bit’. 

A Cornish Legacy, which is Fern’s 11th novel, took the star two years to write – twice longer than normal.
