Call me Nanna! She’s the former Perfect Match host who was one of the most famous faces on Aussie TV in the 1980s. But these days, Debbie Newsome is focused on a different role: Super-Nan!
Speaking to Woman’s Day, she revealed that she’s yet to meet her grandson, Paddy George Shepherdson.
‘I’m really looking forward to meeting him, but Tara keeps sending beautiful photos,’ said.
‘Tara will be the best mum ever, and I’m going to be a good nanny!’
The former TV presenter revealed she prefers to be called ‘Nanna’ because ‘grandma sounds too old.’
