This is evident in her interactions with people and her clean media record, in a world where celebrities have all kinds of scandals on their trail. Read more;
If you have heard of Anita, these questions must cross your mind every so often. If you haven’t, then I believe you must be such a busy person, too busy for media, because Anita Erskine has this presence that can’t go unnoticed once she is on air or the moment she walks into a room. Anita is a phenomenal woman, a modern African woman that uses her programs mainly to empower and inspire women around Africa. In the media, she is a voice to reckon with. The most beautiful thing about the biography of Anita Erskine is that she knows the power of sacrifice, the meaning of patience and persistence. Everything she has/is today, is something she worked for, something whose price she has paid.
Anita later attended Trent University, Canada, where she acquired a Bachelor of Arts degree. She specialized in Cultural Studies after which she dived into the ever competitive world of media and keeps getting better by the day. Anita Erskine husband of 9 years (Yes, the 9 years of Anita Erskine marriage is part of her success story!) is called Regis. Anita describes him as the best husband alive, her reality checker. On marriage, Anita advises that couples stay away from judging each other if they want to grow old together. Anita and Regis have two kids aged 8 and 7. Although young, these kids are Anita’s greatest fans and completely understand her type of work. They know that mummy has to be ways at times working. How beautiful pure, unconditional family love can be! It’s good that Regis hold the family together when Anita has to be away working, and he doesn’t complain. I think that is awesome, a heaven-sent husband he is!
While Anita’s great works and achievements are an open book, Anita Erskine and family is a different story. Her family is her treasure, a gem that she keeps far away from the prying public eye. Sometimes when you are a public figure it’s good to draw the line, keep to the lanes as a small misinterpretation of your public life can easily break the people dear to you. In Anita’s life, family is what keeps her going. She is quoted saying “Sometimes, I am out for more than two weeks and my husband takes care of the two children and never complains. He motivates me and always tells me to go in for the best. He is indeed heaven-sent and I love him so much.” There are no news as to whether there has ever been an Anita Erskine wedding, but Anita is a happy wife and mother. She has experienced the joy of belonging in a complete family since her childhood and now in her own family. If having a happy close-knit family alongside a roaring career is not the utmost level of success, I don’t know what is! Read more:

Every Ghanaian was happy when Bola Ray, one of Ghana’s finest announced that Anita Erskine would be joining him as a co-host in the popular Starr Drive show of Star FM. However, at some point Bola left the show and Giovanni Caleb joined to help Anita carry on with the show. Anita Erskine Starr FM story ends here, with the exit of Bola Ray from the Starr Drive show. Anita said that it was Bola she wanted to work with and exited when he opted out because the show lost its meaning to her. Many people needed to know why she had left such a great show and she said that she only got into the show to work with Bola. The two had a dream of forming the greatest force in the Ghana airwaves. His exit triggered hers. Anita was quoted saying, “When Bolanita was dissolved, my spirit went with it.”If you were a fan of Bolanita and never got answers, there you go! Bola didn’t keep his part of the deal to make something huge with Anita and it broke her heart.
Anita once worked at Viasat 1, hosting The One Show. During this time, there were rumors that she was not getting along well with colleague Joselyn Dumas. It was alleged that these two even used to have heated arguments in the office. This was so widely spread that when Anita left Viasat 1, word went round that it was because she could not blend with Joselyn. Anita has, however, denied these claims at past times, saying although they are not exactly best friends, they have no fight between them. “I was tough on Joselyn Dumas and she will testify to that because she had huge potential. We have best of respect for each other. I can never understand where I and Joselyn Dumas having an issue came from,” she said. In the course of her work, Anita Erskine has won an award of radio and TV personality and also the Female Presenter of the year in 2017. Her efforts could not go unnoticed.
Currently, Anita is the owner of Reverbgy, a strategic development company. She is also a Master of Ceremonies and a keynote speaker, gracing many important occasions especially those involving girl and women empowerment seminars. Did I mention that Anita Erskine can also act? Well, she truly is multi-talented as Anita acts at times, and very well at that. She has featured in one movie produced by Yvonne Nelson dubbed “Singles and married”. She even got awarded for the role she played in this movie. According to Anita however, acting is not in her bucketlist. It is not a business she plans to do as it needs lots of time and commitment which she never has. While being interviewed at one time she said, “I will leave that to the professionals because serious as I see acting, you need people who will commit all their time and attention to it.” The popular media personality says she might consider doing music at some point. Nobody saw this coming! Well, I suppose it’s still not a surprise as Anita Erskine can be so many things. Come to think of it, her outspoken nature and ability to communicate well to large audiences can qualify her to be a musician. She once said she is a collection of many dreams in one person, and it’s so true. We are far from getting Anita Erskine’s final profile update. Like her father she fights on and never gives up.
In the spirit of empowerment, Anita hosts The One Show and also +233 Discovery where she hosts celebrities with inspirational stories. That is how much this beautiful African woman has surrounded herself with positive energy! The media personality believes that you are who you surround yourself with. That sounds like her customized version of “Your network is your net worth.” Put either way, the truth can’t get better than this.
Over the years, this fabulous TV host and entrepreneur has embraced the beauty of an African woman, choosing to have a curveous body as opposed to the popular slim for celebrities. It also can’t pass unnoticed that Anita prefers to darn African print attires and jewelry, which always brings out the best in her. From her shows, associations and involvements, it is obvious she has a special attachment to the African girl and woman empowerment. As if her shows were not enough to advocate this agenda, Anita has taken it upon herself to visit lady forums and directly talk to women on how to explore their full potential. At some point when she was called to work with Starr FM, people whispered that it was her women advocacy spirit the station was looking for. To this she said; “It has nothing to do with women empowerment, though I still can cascade my views through should any such need arises. What this is all about is me and what I have to offer. “The mogul has been named the black Messiah of African women and she unapologetically wears this tittle with confidence and pride. She loves being there for women, doing what she can to help no matter how small.
At the moment I will not say I am rich but very comfortable where I am now but in five years’ time I can call myself a very rich woman." This was Anita’s response when asked if she would consider herself rich in an interview. If you asked me, I would say The One Show presenter is very rich. The response clearly shows her potential to rake in more money hence most people would consider her super rich. Well, not to this super ambitious lady who is a go getter. She is headed for the stars and will stop at nothing less. With her businesses doing that well, Africa’s richest women won’t be mentioned without Anita’s name as part of the list in five years’ time. That is her dream in fact and we can only wish her the very best.
