Louise announced in June that she was stepping back from the show after nearly 20 years, as she had begun to struggle with the early morning starts.
She first appeared on the show in 2001 and moved with its red sofa to Media City in Salford as a lead presenter in 2012.
During her tenure on the programme, she covered a string of major global news stories including general elections, Brexit, the coronavirus pandemic and terror attacks.
She also interviewed famous faces including the Duchess of Cambridge, singer Billie Eilish and naturalist Sir David Attenborough.
In 2019, she hosted the Wake Up To Menopause campaign after revealing that she suffered hot flushes while presenting live TV.
She also took up endurance sport after competing in a BBC Breakfast Christmas cycling challenge and has gone on to compete internationally for the GB triathlon team in her age group.
Who is Louise Minchin's husband?
Louise is married to David Minchin.
The pair wed on June 6 1998 and have two daughters.
David is a restauranteur and investor, who according to the Mirror, has made investments in Chestnut Inns, a collection of pubs, inns, and restaurants in East Anglia.
Louise and David married in a small church in Hampshire.
Speaking in 2013, Louise said: "We only squeezed in about 50 people.
"Other guests sat outside with a picnic during the service and cheered when we came out."
Louise lives in Cheshire with David and their two daughters, Mia and Scarlett.
Thoughts on I'm A Celebrity:
Louise said: "I really hate conflicts too and I will try to be the diplomat in the Castle. But a lack of sleep won't be an issue for me.
"I am a champion sleeper and I can sleep anywhere at any time."
