John Newcombe

The former tennis star, 57, will present a three-part series on the ITV show called Camper Vannabel, where she will explore North Yorkshire. Annabel said the series is dedicated to her husband Mel as the pair had enjoyed exploring the UK in the camper together and she wants to continue on that tradition. Annabel married yachtsman Mel, 60, in 1992, but he tragically passed away in May 2023 - eight weeks after being diagnosed with stage 3 cancer. On the new series, Annabel told The Mirror : 'A few years ago, my late husband Mel and I, converted an old delivery van with the idea of exploring the best of Britain together.'

After being rewarded for his most consistent season and receiving Australia tennis's highest individual accolade, Alex de Minaur will enter the Australian Open as a dual Newcombe Medalist.

Mel Coleman, Annabel's late husband and father to her three children, died earlier this year from stage three cancer. Two months after suffering from stomach pains, the former America's Cup yachtsman, who was a fan of the dancing competition, died at the age of 60. "It's been a nice distraction from dreadful," Annabel said. 'It's been fun to do something joyful and use my body to prevent my mind from being overwhelmed with so many negative thoughts.'
