The viral Top of the Pops episode comes after Anthea and her journalist sister Wendy wrote a collaborative piece in The Sunday newspaper earlier this month about the aftermath of the four-year rift.

At the time of their falling out, Anthea had just split from Grant Bovey over his infidelity and their fertility issues. Her sister, 57, was also going through a difficult time with her husband Gary Webster.

Wendy recalled, “When he [Grant] left her for the last time his PA called me to say, ‘Can you come over? Anthea is really hurt.’ There were lots of incidents like that. There was talking about everything, a few G&Ts and shouting at the world.

“It was heartbreaking: she had already been through a lot of IVF treatments and we had even talked about donating my eggs.”

Anthea added: ‘Wendy and I have never been on each other’s lips, but it was still difficult when we didn’t speak for a couple of years. I had just gotten divorced. I had put all my eggs in one basket with Grant and I didn’t expect it to blow up.

‘Wendy and Gary had problems, but it was their life and there wasn’t everything I could do about it.’

The former Blue Peter presenter married Grant Bovey in 2000, but they divorced in 2015, years after it emerged he had had an affair

The former Blue Peter star insisted her sister and brother-in-law are now ‘completely healthy’, before revealing the impetus for their reunion was their mother’s ill health.

The couple lost their mother Jean in 2022. Anthea and Wendy had resumed contact in the years before, but the former GMTV presenter insisted they would ‘never talk about’ their split.

Nowadays, Anthea, who is still close to her stepdaughters Claudia (27), Amelia (29) and Lily (30), and her sister communicate ‘every other day’.

When they finally spoke again, the sisters found they could pick up where they left off, simply because they are family.
