Antiques Road Trip's Margie Cooper's life including 'secret' career and husband
Margie Cooper, a familiar face on the BBC's Antiques Roadshow since 1985, is known for her talent in uncovering hidden treasures across the nation that would otherwise be left gathering dust in someone's attic. She also shares her expertise on the channel's spin-off show, Antiques Road Trip.
Born in Lancashire in 1949, Margie had a 'secret' career as a fashion model, gracing the covers of numerous magazines before she discovered her passion for antiques. This love was inherited from her grandmother, an antiques dealer, and led Margie to establish her own successful business which she has been running for over three decades.
In addition to being a trained journalist, Margie regularly writes columns about antiques for various publications, further establishing her status as a TV personality. Despite her public persona, Margie is known to be quite private, keeping her personal life away from the limelight.
Online sources estimate her collection of assets to be around £1.1 million, according to MyLondon.
She lives in Cheshire with her long-time husband Mick. The couple have kept their wedding date private, but it's known they enjoyed a lengthy relationship before tying the knot, reports OK!.
