KATE GARRAWAY RETURNS FOR SECOND RUN OF LIFE STORIES ON ITV

Kate Garraway is returning for a second series of Life Stories on ITV after taking over from Piers Morgan to present the long running ITV interview series last year.

Each hour long programme will be devoted to a different celebrity as Kate explores their extraordinary careers and the ups and down of the personal lives of these illustrious individuals.

Kate Garraway said (via The Sun): "Life Stories is coming back, so that’s nice... Piers is Piers, and he’s amazing, but I think it will be interesting with another series to see if it feels more like mine – rather than like I’m borrowing it from Piers."

Speaking previously about the first series, Kate said: "Everyone has a story to tell and the wonderful thing about this show is that you have the airtime to delve into the areas of guests lives that the viewers might not know about already...

"It’s also a chance to understand more about the bits we do already know about (both good and bad) and hear it in their own words."

Kate's first series saw her joined by three guests; singer Charlotte Church, chef Nadiya Hussein and ex-footballer John Barnes. All three episodes are available on ITV Hub.

Guests on the next series wil be announced in due course.
