Lidia Torrent Anca (b. 1994) is a Spanish television presenter and contributor. She is known for having co-presented First Dates (2016-2023) with Carlos Sobera.

Early life and education

Born in Barcelona in 1994, as the daughter of the presenter Elsa Anka and Miquel Torrent, Lidia began studying criminology, but decided to leave to start a training in advertising, marketing and public relations, and start her professional career as a journalist.[1][2]

In the summer of 2019, she began a relationship with footballer Jaime Astrain. They had a daughter together in November 2022.[3]

Professional career

Torrent began her television career with Mediaset España, first as a contributor to Gran Hermano 15 (2014). Months later she began collaborating on the program Pecadores, presented by Monica Martínez on Cuatro.[4][5]

She became a co-host of First Dates in 2016 alongside Carlos Sobera, whom she replaced as host when she was away from space.[6] She remained on the show until spring 2023, when she left to focus on other projects.[7] In addition, she was also a collaborator and presenter of spin-off programs: First Dates: Cruise (2020–2022) and First Dates: Hotel (2024).[8]

In 2016, it was announced that she would be one of the hosts of the New Year's Eve on television for Mediaset España.[9] In January 2022, she was inducted into the final hour gala of the reality show Secret Story: The House of Secrets to replace Lara Állvarez.[10] That same year, she made a cameo in the film The Key Game, directed by Vicente Villanueva.[11]

In January 2025, she made her debut on Spanish television as a contestant on the program Bake Off: Famous in The Oven.[12]
