Fans have flocked to congratulate Steph McGovern after she unveiled the cover for her new thriller novel. The Channel 4 presenter announced some 'breaking news' on her social media accounts today.

Taking to Instagram, she penned: "BREAKING NEWS. Eeeee I can’t believe it! I can finally reveal the book cover for my thriller ‘Deadline’."

She then gave the synopsis of the book, which involves someone's child being kidnapped whilst they are live on air. She signed off with: "You can preorder the book now. Link is in my biog! Also, I’ll be doing lots of book events next year so watch out for those too."

Many of her followers rushed to support her on the exciting news. Dan Walker penned: "Well… that sounds like fun!!! Congratulations Steph."

Similarly, BBC presenter Nina Warhurst said: "Ahhhhhhhhhh ! Well done Steph." Susanna Reid also typed: "Sooooo amazing."

The news comes just days after Steph opened up about menstruation. The mum-of-one shared a candid insight into her regular period leaks and experiencing crippling pain at work.

She shared her views in a lengthy 'rant' on her official profile. Steph penned: "A period drama. I’m 42. And like lots of us I’ve been having painful, heavy periods since I was 12. And that can mean hormones going wild, embarrassing leaks in public, crippling pain at work.

"Us lasses just put up with it don’t we? Now after 30 years I need a rant about it……

"Earlier this week I was on a flight going down to London for work. My plan was to go straight to a meeting (abt a new TV show - more on that soon). During the flight I could feel stomach cramps. It was day 4 of my period and I had taken painkillers. Anyway, I cracked on prepping for work, trying to ignore it.

"When we landed I stood up and suddenly felt a gush of blood. I was wearing tampon+liner and had black jeans on so wasn’t too worried.

"Then another more powerful gush came and this time I felt blood running down my leg. I looked down and saw the blood, which was now on my white trainers. I was mortified. Not only was I surrounded by businessmen I could feel more and more blood coming out."

Away from her TV job, Steph keeps her private life very much on the down low. The only details we know is that she has a mysterious girlfriend and in November 2019 the couple welcomed a baby girl.

Steph has shared very few public posts about her daughter, who’s name has never been disclosed.
