Daughter of former Manchester United & Scotland footballer Gordon McQueen, Hayley has experienced life both in front of and behind the camera as well as behind the scenes within the beautiful game itself.

In her current role as a Sky Sports News presenter, Hayley McQueen thrives from being part of a live news environment and is regularly used to break the biggest stories, presenting the busy 5 hour popular day slot.

She is now part of the Sky Sports presenting team on the much watched Champions League coverage & occasional presenter of Football First.

She has since anchored many outside broadcasts from locations around the world.

A journalist first & foremost, Hayley has gained a reputation as a respectable broadcaster shying away from men's magazine shoots in order to maintain a wholesome respectable image & in turn longevity in her career.
