Louise Minchin suffered ‘brain fog’ due to the menopause

OHMYGOSSIP — Louise Minchin suffered “brain fog” when going through the menopause.
The 53-year-old TV presenter quit her role as co-host of ‘BBC Breakfast’ in 2021 after appearing on the show for more than 20 years but returned to the programme as a guest on Wednesday (27.04.22), where the star opened up for the first time about one incident that had a “real impact” on her.
She said: “I had physical impact, I had heart palpitations, I had tinnitus, all sorts of things. And I’m just going to give you one example because you know this has a real impact at work and I kind of feel nervous again because I never told this at the time, but I remember the brain fog is very real. It was very real for me.”
The former ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ star – who has daughters Mia, 20, and Scarlett, 16, with husband David – explained to current ‘BBC Breakfast’ hosts Sally Nugent and Dan Walker that she was once interviewing then-Chancellor George Osborne, before she had started to take Hormone replacement therapy (HRT), when she couldn’t recall the letters JCB.
Speaking on ‘BBC Breakfast’, she said: “I remember sitting where you were Sally and it makes me really nervous to tell you. I was interviewing then-Chancellor George Osborne, and he was outside of JCB factory. So very important interview on this lovely programme. I couldn’t say the letters JCB, because my brain was just went into this [fog]. I just came off that day thinking ‘My gosh, what is going on?’
“These are very real problems and that was my problem at work, but other people in different kinds of work will have similar issues. That was before I had HRT.”
