Bio
Bianca Rodrigues-Perry is an award-winning entrepreneur, foodie, presenter, author and influencer from Leamington.
Bia’s journey of reinvention began when she left behind her family and a high-flying marketing career in 2009, emigrating from her native Rio de Janeiro, now newly married – her future devoted to what became her new role as mum of three.
But it was also to signal the start of a turbulent period in her life, spending much of her pregnancy battling crippling sickness and post-natal depression, a series of health scares involving her children and the death of a family member who tragically took his own life. Her book is dedicated to him.
It’s Bia’s combined passions of cooking and entrepreneurialism that eventually became a lifeline – even going on to win Couple’s Come Dine With Me on Channel Four. Buoyed by her early business success of running a thriving food delivery service during lockdown, it was in January last year that she stepped out of the shadows of her busy Cubbington kitchen once more, and into the limelight. The Bia’s Kitchen brand was born.
Since then Bianca and her Bia’s Kitchen Show, which is streamed on YouTube, have won the affections of a loyal and growing audience, even winning the entrepreneur national awards, recognising the enterprise and compassion she has shown in her work with local businesses.
