After being rebooted by Channel 4 last year, Changing Rooms<\/a> returns with its second season this week as Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen oversees the re-design of homes across the UK.<\/p>\n

With 2LG Studio\u2019s Jordan Cluroe and Russell Whitehead being joined by two new designers Micaela Sharp and Whinnie Williams, the upcoming episodes will treat home-owners to the \u201ccreative and sometimes unexpected\u201d make-overs that the show has become known for.<\/p>\n

Beginning in Tunbridge Wells, the Changing Rooms team will be helping Eddie and Lotta and their neighbours Charlotte and Stuart transform each other\u2019s homes \u2013 however, fans will notice that host Anna Richardson is missing from season 2.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s everything we know so far on why Anna Richardson is no longer hosting Changing Rooms and who will be replacing her.<\/p>

Why has Anna Richardson left Changing Rooms?<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Channel 4 confirmed that Anna Richardson would not be returning to Changing Rooms for season 2 with the first-look photographs of the new episodes.<\/p>\n

While Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, Jordan Cluroe, Russell Whitehead and Tibby Singh feature in the promotional pictures, as well as new designers Micaela Sharp and Whinnie Williams, Anna Richardson does not.<\/p>\n

The Naked Attraction host has not issued a statement on stepping down from the show and Channel 4 has not explained why Richardson won\u2019t be presenting season 2.<\/p>\n

RadioTimes.com<\/a> has reached out to Channel 4 and Anna Richardson for comment.<\/p>\n

Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen said about returning to the show for season 2: \u201cLike Arnie in The Terminator and Jack in The Shining, Changing Rooms is back smashing down the doors of the nation\u2019s most \u2018meh\u2019 interiors to let the colour and excitement of full fat decorating in.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cHaving loved every minute of last year\u2019s revival that coincided with The Changing Rooms Silver Jubilee, I\u2019ve got some spectacular, nay superhuman, transformations planned. This season, the world\u2019s most iconic home show returns to its ensemble roots with Whinnie Williams and Micaela Sharp adding their own particular design DNA to the established aesthetic gene pool of myself and Russell and Jordan, which will guarantee that, in every episode, viewers will be able to always expect the unexpected.\u201c<\/em><\/p>\n
