Chloe Madeley reveals how her parents Richard and Judy are getting on during lockdown
The fitness star admits she's finding it hard to not see her parents on her "down days".
Chloe Madeley has revealed what her parents Richard and Judy have been doing in lockdown as she admits she misses them.
The fitness enthusiast, who has a close relationship with her showbiz parents, admits she hasn't been able to see them since the self-isolation was put into place and that they would usually pick her mood up when she was feeling down.
Chloe said, 'I miss them so much. I haven't actually seen them since the beginning of lockdown so it's been a while and I'm so close to them that it's been quite hard. 'Everybody knows during lockdown you have really good days and quite down days so normally when I have a down day I really would go see them because they're usually at home but now I can't so it's hard.'
How are Richard and Judy spending lockdown?
And with work stopped for most people, she reveals how her TV presenter parents are coping. She told ITV's Lorraine, 'They are loving it - mum is such a homebody she just wants to read and write so she is loving it and dad, is a sun worshipper so he's in the garden writing his column and reading the paper every day so he's really fine.'
Richard and Judy returned to Channel 4 last month with Richard and Judy's Book Club. Chloe continued, 'The Book Club was actually a really good thing for them to do because it gave them some work in the middle of it all to stay mentally sane but now they're just relaxing and happy and they're loving it.'
Chloe is raising awareness for Race for Life which people can take part in from home during lockdown to help raise the much needed funds for Cancer Research UK.
And in addition to this worthwhile cause Chloe revealed how she's been spending her time at home. 'I've got lots of online clients and I'm editing my next book so it's good to have something to do' she said.
