Clare Balding is ready to fill the dog-shaped hole in her heart! 🐾 The beloved BBC presenter, known for her Wimbledon coverage, is planning a surprise for her wife Alice Arnold—but it’s a secret! Clare and Alice faced heartbreak after losing their Tibetan terrier, Archie, in 2020. Now, Clare feels the time is right to welcome a new furry friend. She’s even keen on getting two poodles! 🤫
