Graeme Richards from anchoring live time prime news to practicing martial arts, Graeme Richards is a man of every moment.

Having presented on almost every South African television and platform and having conducted interviews with local and international superstars in sport, lifestyle and entertainment, Graeme has sustained an admirable level of success.

Currently based in Cape Town, Graeme is co-host on the live daily breakfast show Expresso, broadcasted on national television to around 1.4 million viewers daily.

With almost two decades of experience, Graeme has enjoyed a career on live television and on stage as an actor, MC, voiceover artist and model.

With this, comes the honour of having interviewed internationally recognised stars such as Anthony Anderson, Boris Kudjoe, Carly Rae Jepson and South African greats such as Alain Prost, Francois Pienaar, Gary Player and the Arch Bishop Desmond Tutu.

Not stopping at small screen success, Graeme has also had the privilege of having had feature roles in a number of international movie releases; most notably the R100 million budget film, Starship Troopers 3: Marauders.

He has also been in numerous international television commercials for prominent brands such as Coca Cola, Nokia, Volkswagen and Sun International.

Using the city of Cape Town and its natural surroundings as his playground – as well as being a lifelong martial arts practitioner – Graeme is most definitely in-tune with his physical well-being and he participates in every sporting event accessible to him, from the Two Oceans Marathon, the Cape Town Cycle Tour, Weskus Marathon, Cape Town Rugby 10’s and even the odd white-collar boxing event.

His physique has won him notable attention from the fairer sex with two nominations for as ‘Sexiest Man’ bestowed upon him by Cosmopolitan Magazine in 2016 and 2017.

Graeme Richards represented the month of June in the Cosmopolitan Sexiest Man Calendar for 2017.

A philanthropist above all else, Graeme has played a direct role in raising millions of Rands and an even greater amount of trade and promotion for many charities; a mission he continues to support each and every day.

Graeme Richards utilises his profile to uplift people around the country, from rehousing street children in Hillbrow to massive CSI sponsorship procurements that have year-on-year literally raised tons of stationary and meals to feed hundreds of children, as well helping them grow as inspired individuals.

After being asked about his limits, Graeme Richards answered: “I am game for anything … well, anything except kissing a man (again) and shark cage diving!”
