Megan Heintz

Work or writing background leading to expertise

Megan is an editor for In Touch and Life & Style, though her writing sometimes appears on Closer. She began her journey as a junior editor in May 2017 and was promoted to associate editor in December 2017. She accepted her current role, senior editor, in November 2018. In addition to editing dozens of stories a week, pitching ideas to the exec. ed and posting on In Touch and Life & Style‘s social media pages, she also manages to find time to write a few pieces of her own. If you click on a story about OutDaughtered or Little People, Big World, chances are, Megan wrote it.

Every Tuesday, you can catch Megan on In Touch‘s weekly podcast, “Dishin’ on the Duggars,” where she and her fellow gals dish on, well, the Duggars. Who is pregnant this week? What stupid thing did Derick Dillard say on Twitter now? We’ve got ya covered. 

Other career highlights include meeting the casts of Teen Mom/The Bachelor and filming a commercial for the MTV Movie Awards with Karlie Kloss. Turns out, Megan’s not a very good actress.

Education
