7: June Sarpong

Round the Houses with Sarah Beeny

For the season finale of Round The Houses, Sarah's firmly in the heart of Zone 1 in London, meeting the fabulous June Sarpong in her equally amazing (temporary) home, The Library in Covent Garden.

June goes right back to the beginning for Sarah, talking about her family's dramatic move from Ghana to Walthamstow when she was 5 and how she became Kiss FM's teen presenter star after doing work experience there aged just 15. She reflects on the opposition from some of her family about her choice of career - and how she won them over with her success. June also explains why it's so difficult for British people to adapt to the dating style in the US, and jokes that drove her back to London after nearly a decade in LA and New York.

June also talks frankly about her views on having a family and about why she froze her eggs in her early 30s.
