Although many of us might think of presenting A Place in the Sun is a dream job, former host Scarlette Douglas has opened up about the challenging side of the job, revealing that the jam-packed schedule can be hard work - while revealing the two items that presenters aren't allowed to wear despite the sunny destinations…
Chatting to The Express, the TV personality, who left the show back in 2022 before presenting Worst House on the Street, explained: "There's a lot that goes into it. It's hard work… You just about have time to drink some water. You keep going and going and going, so as much as it looks glamorous, it's actually a really difficult show." She added that it often took five days to film one 47-minute show.

While we're sure this is to go along with the presenters' glamorous dress code, we can imagine things become challenging!

She explained: "It was important to not just speak up as a woman but as a Black woman," she said at the time. "I feel great that I’ve done it. It’s taken a huge weight off because I’m career-driven.
"I don’t have to worry about getting into a relationship really quickly just because I want to have kids. Now I can take my time and find the right guy."
