Frances Tophill has become a household name in the gardening world, starring in BBC's Gardeners' World and ITV's Love Your Garden. Let's delve into her life away from the spotlight

Frances Tophill, a cherished presenter on BBC's Gardeners' World since her debut in 2016, has captivated fans with her passion for gardening. Her journey into television began during her university days, despite her lacking prior showbiz experience.

Frances Tophill's 9 to 5 job When she's not filming for TV, Frances actually has a full-time 9 to 5 job. She works as head gardener at Devon’s Sharpham Trust Gardens. “I am always keen to make sure I am working for real as well. I have to book holidays when I want to go away for filming. But Gardeners’ World has been very accommodating.”

"It was Dom and Steph’s garden before they were on Gogglebox. They lived in the house and we gardeners kept to ourselves. The apprentice – my job – did the clearing of the drains, the turning of the compost and made the tea in the mornings for the head gardener. “My degree course was supportive of me doing the TV work, but they never imagined I would ever have a career in TV and it would never have occurred to me," Frances revealed. "I was really shy as a child. When I was a teenager I used to be in bands with my sisters and found it so nerve-wracking I had to give it up.
