“Chickstory is just into its third season and we’re joined this year by some awesome guests. It’s going really well. I have some TV work lined up but can’t spill what it is.” When not juggling media commitments, Yvie can be found in her Melbourne townhouse with her beloved rescue pooches.“I actually took it (the townhouse) unseen, which is very un-me. I was moving to Melbourne for work and asked around … the area was recommended as good with dogs.”Yvie moved into the rental property two years ago, and says it’s a good fit for now, joking any home renovations are out of the question.“I’m renting but what a great surprise it would be to pull a renovation on a landlord.”Instead, Yvie has made the house a home with vibrant colours, comfortable furnishings, and above all, good vibes.“I play music from the moment I wake up, my mornings are a ritual of music and coffee.” AT HOME WITH FORMER GOGGLEBOX STAR YVIE JONESWho: Former Gogglebox star and podcaster Yvie Jones.Where: Pet-friendly Melbourne townhouse.Favourite thing: Can I say my babies?

I think I’m finally getting her to like me.Book shelvesI love the asymmetric design, everything I put on it looks great, funnily there’s not many books there.

Sitting in my egg chair in the sun, looking at my emails and what’s on for the day is how I start my morning.
