Siân, who lives in South London, joined Capital Breakfast with Roman Kemp as a co-host in 2020, replacing Vick Hope.
Speaking to Time & Leisure in 2022 about signing onto the show, which she now hosts alongside Roman, Sonny and Chris Stark, she said: “I did a demo with the two of them, it was gold and it was just easy. We clicked immediately. I left the room thinking that I want to work with those two, and then I found out later they felt the same about me so it was meant to be.”
As for her future plans, she said: “I’ve learned that you can’t predict anything really. I never thought I’d be a weather girl but I did it for six years. I never thought I would be working in gaming or as a sports presenter as I did, or even to have got into radio, and then here I am.”

She went on to say that she’d love to do more TV work, explaining: “I love having a laugh…I really hope I keep getting these opportunities because I’ve never had a plan B and I don’t love anything else like I love this. It was always my dream to do something in entertainment, whether behind the camera or in front of it.”
