Clare's first love has always been weather and science. She is a fully qualified, Met Office trained, weather forecaster with 20 years experience. During her ten years as GMTV's weather anchor she was in charge of the output and production for science and weather stories. She also presented many strands on travel, lifestyle and special awards. Clare remains one of the most well-known and liked weather presenters on television.
Her other main interest is sport and fitness; Clare works out regularly and enjoys kickboxing. Her first fitness DVD, 'Clare Nasir's Boot Camp', was released in late December 2010 and has become best selling.
Clare is an ambassador for the Princes Trust and a third party advocate for the nuclear energy industry. She is married to Chris Hawkins, presenter on BBC 6music and they have a 20 month old daughter, Sienna.
