Life and career

Rosemary Winter was born on 30 August 1986 in South Shields, Tyne and Wear to Sandra (née Crawford) and Derek Winter.[1][2][3] She has an older sister Kate, and a younger brother, Kevin.[1] Ramsey met comedian Chris Ramsey when they were 14, whilst socialising in similar friendship circles and they went on to attend the same college.[4] Prior to her media work, Ramsey worked as a blue coat at Pontins, an announcer at Newcastle Racecourse and as a presenter on radio station Capital.[5] After encountering each other again in a nightclub, they began dating in 2012, and got engaged six months into their relationship before getting married on 25 July 2014. Their first son was born in October 2015.[6] In 2017, the couple appeared on the Channel 4 series Parenting for Idiots.[7] In 2018, the couple shared via social media that Ramsey had had a miscarriage when she was 12 weeks pregnant with their second child.[8] Ramsey had a minor role in the television film Death on the Tyne in 2018, in which she voiced the engineer on the radio.[9]

In February 2019, the pair started a weekly podcast titled Shagged Married Annoyed, which they co-host from their home.[10] The podcast won the Listeners' Choice Award at the British Podcast Awards along with a bronze award for Best New Podcast in 2020.[11] In July 2020, the couple announced that they were expecting again; their second son was born on 6 January 2021.[12][13] Ramsey and her husband appeared on an episode of Alan Carr's Epic Gameshow in 2020.[14] In November 2021, it was announced that the Ramseys would co-present a new chat show commissioned by the BBC: The Chris & Rosie Ramsey Show.[15] The show was commissioned for second series in June 2022.[7] In December 2022, Ramsey took part in the Strictly Come Dancing 2022 Christmas Special.[16][17] She was partnered with Neil Jones and danced the Jive to "Step Into Christmas", which subsequently scored them 39/40 points.[18]

In February 2024, it was announced that Ramsey would be one of the presenters for the Comic Relief telethon, which took place on Friday 15 March.
