As well as fronting Love in the Country, she will be on Ireland Fittest Family this year — and she told how while she missed being on the show, she’s coming back with a “renewed sense of competitiveness”
Love In The Country’s Anna Geary has opened up about the “brilliant” new season — and how audiences will “really connect” with the “rural romantics” this season.And she told Chic how it is “absolutely brilliant” to be back with a new season — and shared what audiences can expect from this year’s singletons.
“I’ve got that for such a long time for Ireland’s Fittest Family, which has such a loyal audience — to have people genuinely interested in when it’s coming back was great. “People are really honest about the challenge. We have everybody — ages range from a 20-year-old to someone in their mid-70s. And all of them are doing the show for different reasons.
“I think what it really hammers home for me, at least, is that everyone deserves to find love if they’re looking for; regardless of your age, location or your sexual preference. “One of our older love hopefuls, he’s hilarious. He’s really honest, and really open about loneliness and how life choices have led to this point — I won’t say what it is, but when you hear it, you’ll know it. It’s so funny, he really caught me off guard when he said it.
She said, “I think there is more and more people, now than ever before, that are struggling to find somebody. Anna added that the apps aren’t for everyone — and opened up about what makes Love In The Country stand out. “I think the show’s important as well because it shows the realities of dating. It shows the wholesomeness of it — the authentic, the awkward moments of being on a date.
“The reality of dating is really different. I think it’s nice that the show shows the highs and lows of that — the award moments and those sparks, when you see two people clicking and you’re like, ‘oh my gosh, they’ve really got a connection!’ “I came back this year with nearly a new zest for it and a renewed sense of competitiveness. I didn’t think I could get more competitive, but as it turned out, I can and I have. I really missed it.
She said, “I’ve been getting to grips with being back at work full time — and obviously, having my little boy as well. He’s more active now, he’s walking and he’s more energetic. “It’s that constant, trying every day to make it work — getting to be back on Ireland’s Fittest Family and doing Love in the Country again and presenting the show — and Supercharged, my own health and wellness show, is back in November, which I’m really excited about.
