Lesley Anne Biography – Lesley Anne Wiki
Lesley Anne, 59, is a hairdresser from Kent and a contestant on The Great British Bake Off (GBBO) 2025. She’s been baking since the age of 10, inspired by Nanny Mable and Auntie Joan, who taught her the basics and sparked a lifelong passion.
Despite a love for classic old-school bakes, it’s never the ‘same old’ with her modern and fun designs. For her, baking is all about comfort, creativity and making people smile, especially when it’s served with a cuppa and a chat.
Lesley’s been a hairdresser for 45 years and the clients that come to her salon always expect a lovely slice of cake along with their trim. She has high hopes for her Granddaughter Mabel, who she expects to be able to do a curly blow-dry and bake a batch of cookies by the time she is 5.

Lesley Anne Great British Bake Off
Hairdresser Lesley Anne is a contestant on Series 16 of The Great British Bake Off on Channel 4. The bakers of GBBO 2025 will be competing against each other in the famous baking tent, under the watchful eyes of judges Paul Hollywood and Prue Leith, alongside hosts Alison Hammond and Noel Fielding.
Reflecting on special moments from the series, she remembered hosts Alison Hammond and Noel Fielding arriving in the tent to tell the contestants what they would be baking for the first time. “I had a big cheesy smile on my face,” said Lesley. “I was still in disbelief that I was there, it felt like I was in a dream, and I would wake up at any moment.”
