Andrea Jean McLean (born 5 October 1969) is a Scottish journalist and television presenter who works on ITV Daytime.

Her bubbly personality and journalistic training brought her to the attention of various producers, resulting in her presenting shows such as the first series of Our House for UKTV Style,[5] and as a guest panellist on Loose Women for ITV.

After announcing her decision to leave in November 2008, McLean was replaced as GMTV weather presenter by the BBC's Kirsty McCabe.

In June 2019, McLean and Feeney celebrated the site's first birthday with a party attended by website contributors and special guests such as Amanda Lamb, Jo Malone and Brenda Edwards.
