BBC Countryfile presenter Vick Hope has received a wave of warm support from viewers following her return to the popular Sunday evening programme. The presenter, who welcomed her first child earlier this year, made her comeback in a festive episode filmed at the iconic Stonehenge.
A Welcome Return to the Countryside
Vick Hope, who became a permanent presenter on BBC Countryfile in March 2025, has returned to screens after taking time off for the birth of her son. The latest episode, which aired recently, featured Vick exploring the ancient mysteries of Stonehenge in preparation for the Winter Solstice. She also followed in the footsteps of the renowned artist J.M.W. Turner across the Lake District.
Sharing behind-the-scenes moments from the shoot on her Instagram, the 36-year-old expressed her delight at being back. "Lovely to be back presenting @bbccountryfile," she told her followers. The post prompted an immediate and positive reaction from her fanbase, with many commenting on how pleased they were to see her back on their screens.
Fans Express Their Joy and Support
The response to Vick Hope's return was overwhelmingly positive. In the comments section of her social media post, one enthusiastic fan wrote, "Yey love this! For you and our screens." Another admirer added, "Have always watched Countryfile but there is an extra reason now," highlighting Vick's popularity with the audience.
Further comments praised both the presenter and the episode's content. "Great to have you back," said one supporter, while another noted, "Amazing pics! You looked divine." The episode itself was described as "so interesting" by a viewer, who also thanked Vick "for such a wonderful episode."
Balancing Motherhood and a Broadcasting Career
Vick Hope's return to work follows a momentous year in her personal life. She and her husband, DJ Calvin Harris, 41, confirmed they were expecting their first child shortly after she joined Countryfile. Their son, Micah Nwosu Wiles, was born on July 20, 2025, at their home in Ibiza.
The couple shared the happy news on Instagram in August. Calvin Harris posted a heartfelt tribute, calling his wife "a superhero" and expressing his awe at her "primal wisdom." Vick herself described the home birth as "beautiful" and "powerful," surrounded by love and nature. The couple are clearly besotted with their new arrival, marking a joyful chapter as Vick resumes her television career.
Her seamless return to BBC Countryfile demonstrates her commitment to the show and its celebration of the British landscape, much to the appreciation of its dedicated viewers.
