Sandra Barneda i Valls

Sandra Barneda Valls (born 4 October 1975) is a Spanish journalist, television presenter, actress, and writer.

Sandra Barneda was born in Barcelona on 4 October 1975. She holds a licentiate in journalism from the Autonomous University of Barcelona's Faculty of Information Sciences, and is also a graduate of the Barcelona School of Theater.

She has worked at Catalunya Ràdio, COM Ràdio [es], RNE4, TVE Cataluña [es], Antena 3, Telemadrid, 8TV, TV3, La 2, and Telecinco, as well as writing for El Periódico de Catalunya, Elle and Zero.

In the early 2000s, Barneda began to take some acting roles, joining the cast of the play Aprobado en castidad [es] in 2001, and appearing on television series such as Al salir de clase [es] and Javier ya no vive solo [es].

On 4 May 2009 she premiered De buena ley [es] on Telecinco, a controversial program which used actors to recreate court cases without advising viewers that they were dramatizations. She presented this with Alberto Herrera, who was replaced by Emilio Pineda [es] on 21 July, when the show's graphics and set were also changed.

On 1 May 2010, Barneda took on the role of presenting issues to be discussed on La noria [es], succeeding Glòria Serra [es].

In early 2012, she became co-presenter of El gran debate [es], a new show on Saturday night presented by Jordi González, where she remained until its cancellation in August 2013.

On 10 April 2013, she published her first novel, Reír al viento. On 21 December of the same year she released her second book, Cómo construir una superheroína.

In the summers of 2013, 2014, and 2015, she hosted El programa del verano [es] with Joaquín Prat, replacing Ana Rosa Quintana.

From April 2014 to August 2016, she presented the Telecinco evening program Hable con ellas [es] with Alyson Eckmann [es], Natalia Millán, Beatriz Montañez, Yolanda Ramos, Rocío Carrasco, Marta Torné, Alba Carrillo [es], Mónica Martínez [es], and Soledad León de Salazar.

From October 2014 to June 2015, she presented a new Telecinco debate show on Saturday nights, titled Un tiempo nuevo [es].

On 15 October 2014 her novel La tierra de las mujeres was published.

From September 2015 until March 2016, she presented the sobremesa program Trencadís [es] on 8TV.

In January 2016 she began presenting the Telecinco reality show Gran Hermano VIP on Sunday nights.

From 2016 to 2018, she led debate segments on Survivor Spain, replacing Raquel Sánchez-Silva.

In December 2014, Sandra Barneda came out as being in a relationship with another woman, in response to a question from actor José Corbacho [es] on Hable con ellas. In a 2016 interview she spoke about previously having lived with presenter Tània Sàrrias, though denied rumors that they had been married. On Lesbian Visibility Day in April 2019, she and partner Nagore Robles [es] (who had been a contestant on Gran Hermano VIP) posted pictures of themselves kissing and publicly affirmed their support for LGBT rights.
