Further, her nurturing and affectionate side came in the front when she shared that she is the Aunty Moe who spoils her lovely four nieces and nephews and said,
“I’m the one who’s a VIP at Toys’R’Us. I spoil them. Outside of work, those kids are my whole world.”

Something about her career
Further talking about her career as a sports presenter Mel revealed and said,
“I never look at myself as a woman in sport, I know that clearly I am, but I bump into people from school who say: ‘It’s nice to see you’re doing this (as a job) because you were always so obsessed (with sport).’ That’s nice. I consider myself a sports fan just like the menI work with.”

And recalling the controversy shestated the fact that everyone had an opinion on it and she can handle herself she said,
“I kept my head down through all of that because it was crazy. It was just an interview. I can handle myself, I’m fine. Everyone seemed to have an opinion so I just went the other way.”
Further, pointing out her passion which is important for her, and commenting on Chris Gayle she said,
“I know I’m on TV but I’m not about that at all. I’m not in it to be famous and the extra attention horrified me. I love what I do and I’m passionate about it and that’s what’s important. I’ll come across (Gayle) again. It’s work. There’s no problem.”

Knowing all the issues about her personal and professional life, we can say that Mel is an undoubtedly strong woman. She is a source of inspiration for many young girls for they all look up to her.
She expressed her feeling of joy as she said,
“I had it at the Allan Border Medal recently. A mother came up to me and said, ‘My 18-year-old daughter looks up to you,’ and that killed me. I was almost crying, but it was beautiful. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t float around saying, ‘That’s the impact’ but I’m just saying that for anyone who doesn’t see that women should be working in sport and that it should be a blokey boys’ club, it just doesn’t resonate.”
Mel McLaughlin has a failed marriage lingering in her past but that doesn’t mean that her marriage in the future would be a failure too. And there always remains the hope of Mel finding her “Mr. Right” with whom she can fulfill her desire of becoming a mother with children and family along with years of marital bliss.
