Due to the death of her father, she left her studies and began her professional career in 1984, working for Radiocadena Española as a presenter, writer, and producer on the programs Apueste por una and Te vas a Enterar, directed by Mara Colás. In 1987 she directed and presented Las Mañanas de la Cadena Rato for Radio Torcal in Málaga.

Professional career

In 1988 she appeared in the film Zocta, solo en la Tierra se puede ser extraterrestre, directed by Joe Rígoli.[3] That year she also left radio to join Jesús Hermida's program Por la mañana as producer and musical coordinator, and later her mother's programs A mi manera (1989–1990) and Ésta es su casa (1990–1991). In 1990 she presented several programs (musicals and interviews), while continuing her activity as a music producer on TVE's Pasa la vida. She likewise participated in TVE's Christmas program Telepasión española.

In 1995 she appeared in four chapters of the Antena 3 series Canguros, playing the sister of Almudena (Ana Risueño). In 1996 she moved to Telecinco to write and co-present María Teresa Campos' program Día a día until June 1997. In 1997 she also presented the Miss Spain gala.

In June 1997, she began to present an interview and variety program called En Exclusiva, broadcast by Nou and Telemadrid. That September she began to combine this with presenting the magazine Con T de tarde on Telemadrid. This was on the air until June 2004. In September 2004 she was hired by Antena 3, where she collaborated with her mother on the morning program Cada día. That year she also presented the game show La Granja on the same channel.[4] In 2005 she returned to present the second edition of La Granja.

In 2007, she was hired by Telecinco, a channel where she continues to work today, debuting as a contributor on the show La noria. In 2009 she became the co-host of ¡Qué tiempo tan feliz! with María Teresa Campos. In 2010 she began to contribute to Sálvame and Mira quien mira. In addition, from 2010 to 2014 she presented Sálvame Deluxe (later known as Sábado Deluxe) during holiday periods. In February 2011, she led the special La Caja Deluxe.

In January 2014, she announced on the Telecinco program Sálvame that she would take a few months off from television, since she was not happy working.[6] That July she confirmed her return to television after the summer to resume her role as a contributor on Sálvame.
