Nadiya Hussain, Chef/Baker, Television Personality & Author

Born in Luton to a Bangladeshi family, Nadiya has been baking for 10 years. She now lives in Milton Keynes with her husband and three children. After wondering why her father only served ice cream for dessert at his restaurant, as desserts aren’t a big feature of mealtimes in Bangladesh, Nadiya was encouraged by a school home economics teacher to develop her skills and now delivers beautiful masterpieces at family occasions. She won the Great British Bake Off in 2015 and released her first book 'Nadiya's Kitchen' in 2016. She has now released17 books including six best-selling cookbooks, which have sold nearly 1.5 million copies worldwide. Nadiya has won several awards including Best Presenter at the Women and Television Film Awards, and Personality of the Year at the Fortnum & Mason Food and Drink Awards. Nadiya has been named as one of the 500 most influential people in the UK.
