Television presenter Alex Jones has revealed she believes she may be experiencing perimenopause, a suspicion heightened after an incident where she threw four pints of milk in her kitchen. Speaking on the Dig It podcast with Jo Whiley and Zoe Ball, Jones expressed her uncertainty about the onset of symptoms, noting she had her youngest child at 44 and hadn't experienced significant signs until the recent episode of rage.
Jones admitted to being slightly in denial about perimenopause and questioned if she should be on HRT. She also recalled past concerns about early menopause, as her own mother experienced it at the young age of 33 without symptoms. The presenter now finds nutrition and exercise helpful in managing what she identifies as perimenopause.
Having had her first child at 41, Alex Jones is a mother to three children: Teddy, Kit, and Annie, with her husband Charlie Thomson. Reflecting on her life choices, she expressed contentment with having children at a later age, feeling they arrived when she and her husband were ready after travelling and establishing their home. She cherishes the 'noise and pace' of family life, finding it vital and energizing.
