Busybody announced: ‘Fruit’ (7)
I believe the answer is:
meddler
'busybody' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'announced fruit' is the wordplay.
'announced' indicates a 'sounds like' (homophone) clue.
'fruit' becomes 'medlar' (apple-like fruit).
'medlar' is a homophone of 'MEDDLER'.
(Other definitions for meddler that I've seen before include "Interfering person" , "Interferer" , "One tampering" , "One interfering" , "One who interferes" .)
