ITV has announced today a raft of brand new female focused factual documentaries, set to air on ITVBe later this year. 

“At ITV we’re committed to depicting real-life stories for our viewers, in an authentic and truthful way- tackling important issues, myth-busting and providing important insight to create and instill change," Amanda Stavri, ITV’s Commissioning Editor of Reality TV said. "These four equally brilliant documentaries would not have been possible without Jacqueline, Nicola & Ella, Hannah and Tanya’s support and bravery, and so we’d like to pass on our thanks to them for sharing their personal experiences to help raise awareness and bring these real-life issues to light.”

"Me & ICF" by Rare TV and The Gold Studios, follows British Olympic boxer Nicola Adams and her partner, model Ella Baig as they go through IVF treatment and pregnancy.

"Me & Breast Implants" shows Hannah Spearritt as she investigates Breast Implant Illness and asks important questions about Breast Augmentation surgery following her own augmentation surgery she had back in 2013. In "Me & ADHD," Tanya Bardsley was diagnosed 6 weeks before her 40th birthday with ADHD, and is recently dealing with her son's diagnosis.
