Bargain Hunt returns to BBC One this weekend, with antiques expert Christina Trevanion hosting a repeat episode from Season 61.
The 45-year-old auctioneer and presenter owns Trevanion Auctioneers and Valuers in Whitchurch, Shropshire, and lives in the same town with her husband and two daughters.
On Instagram, Trevanion gave followers a look at her garden, posting a picture of herself in a white summer dress examining an immaculate floral border.
A garden inspection after the storm
"Post-storm garden inspection. The peonies, which have brought me so much joy this spring, are now sadly petal-less after the heavy rain… but almost everything else is relatively unscathed," she wrote.
Fans responded with praise, commenting: "What a beautiful garden" and "What a gorgeous view". Another follower wrote: "A perfect English garden, obviously tended by someone who knows what they’re about. Peonies are one of my favourites. Thank you for sharing."
Gardening as a tonic
Trevanion has previously said gardening has been "a real tonic and quite a distraction". She joked alongside a photo of herself among colourful flowers: "Is this middle-aged? If so, I rather like it."
She has also described life at home as "hectic". "As a busy mum of two, with a full-time job and a part-time job, I don’t get a lot of free time, so when I do, it is spent with my family and friends, in my garden, at home," she said.
"Life is pretty noisy, hectic, and good fun," she added.
Remembering her father
The Bargain Hunt host was left devastated by the death of her father, David, in 2013 after a cancer battle. In 2019, she paid tribute to him on her wedding anniversary.
"Nine years ago today, this man walked me down the aisle and technically 'gave me away'... although he would say that 'he reluctantly agreed to share me with' the (other) love of my life," she shared.
She added: "Thinking of all those with a missing piece in their puzzle, but hoping that 2020 is a goodie!"
Bargain Hunt airs on BBC One on Saturday at 1.15pm.
