It comes after Cat admitted that she never thought she would ‘crack’ America due to her appearance after refusing surgery when she first began working in Hollywood. 

The TV presenter – who moved back to London last year following 14 years in the States – candidly discussed being judged critically on her appearance across the pond.

According to the mother-of-two, she was told to consider getting a nose job after she landed a host position on So You Think You Can Dance in 2006.

Speaking to The Sunday Telegraph’s Stella magazine about the pressure to live up to beauty standards in May, she said: ‘I’ve still got no boobs and a nose that goes that way.’

‘When it comes to stuff like that, you’re asking the wrong woman,’ Cat added of her decision to refuse surgery. She also stated: ‘I never thought I was going to crack America.’

However, one positive habit that the star has taken back to the UK after living in Los Angeles is yoga, as she said ‘it clears my mind and lengthens everything’.

Cat decided to return to her home country with her husband Patrick Kielty, and their sons, Milo, four, and James, two, in 2020.

In November, the TV host discussed the ‘terrifying’ reason she decided to move back.

The television presenter revealed her fear of gun violence, as she touched upon the gut-wrenching moment her husband, 49, and their eldest son narrowly avoided a public shooting incident.

She described the event at the Century City Mall as the ‘catalyst’ for their departure.

Speaking to Lorraine Kelly from her north London home, Cat said: ‘The catalyst for it was definitely a moment when Paddy called me and him and Milo were stuck in a shopping mall there.

‘I had to go and pick them up and I didn’t know quite where they were. There were helicopters and police vans and news crews, it was terrifying for me. Everybody was safe and fine, but it was terrifying for me.’
