[edit] Presenting career
She has presented on the Nickelodeon channel, Five's morning programme Milkshake, It's a Knockout and currently presents BBC's Homes Under the Hammer.[2] Alexander was also one of the main presenters on the now defunct TV Travelshop Channel which was on air from April 1998 to March 2005. She is currently a faculty member of Speakers Academy.[3]
[edit] Personal life
Alexander was introduced to ex-Premier League footballer Stewart Castledine by mutual friend, radio presenter Robin Banks. She married Castledine in 2000 in Richmond, London, with Outhwaite as Chief Bridesmaid, in an event covered by Hello! magazine.[4] The couple have two children, both born in Kingston upon Thames, London: Kitty Rose (born 2002) Leo Alexander[1] (born 2005).[5] They live in Teddington, southwest London.[6]
As part of the series Put Your Money Where Your Mouth Is, Alexander bought her family a new home for £1.2 million, where she had not viewed the property (more than looking through the letter box); had a structural survey undertaken; checked the land registry; and had to change the usage from five flats.
