Martine McCutcheon has been unveiled as the star voiceover behind Billie and husband Greg Shepherd’s brand new reality show, The Family Diaries.
Former EastEnders star and The Masked Singer contestant Martine will be narrating the ITVBe show when it debuts on screens tonight (Wednesday 6 October).
The Family Diaries follows Billie, husband Greg, and their children Nelly, seven, and Arthur, four, as they navigate hectic family life in Essex.
It marks Billie’s latest venture since her long-running series with sister Sam Faiers, The Mummy Diaries, came to an end, with Sam quitting after seven years to concentrate on other projects.
Martine is clearly thrilled to be a part of The Family Diaries as she shared her excitement online.
Martine quickly reposted Billie’s Instagram story which announced the news to her social media followers.
Billie, 31, wrote: “Very excited @martinemccutcheon”, to which Martine, 45, replied: “Whoop! Whoop @billiefaiersofficial.”
Teasing what’s to come in the new series, Billie, who sprung to fame on The Only Way Is Essex, exclusively told OK!: “We’re so excited. It’s been a really good series to film.”
She continued: “We’ve got holidays, Arthur’s first day at school, renovating our house, our 10-year anniversary, and my mum and dad are in it a lot.”
The reality star and businesswoman went on to say that it was an access-all-areas to the Shepherd’s life.
Billie revealed: “There are lots of ups and downs, pros and cons. But what viewers like is the reality of our normal life.”
“We get so many people saying to us, ‘Thank you for putting that out there and being yourself. It makes me feel like a normal parent.’”
The mum-of-two, who recently opened up about adding to her brood, added that they have nowhere to hide and that they never hold back in front of the cameras so the viewers can get a true insight into what happens behind closed doors.
Billie explained: “This series is really raw and you get to see so much of our home life because we’re filming on our own.”
“Because it’s reality, we can’t hold back the emotions with each other, either.”
“It’s been great fun but I feel like when it actually airs, I’m going to be really nervous because the pressure’s on just us now!”
