Good afternoon.
Good evening.
No.
People listen whilst they're getting ready.
I do.
Oh, so, okay, okay, okay.
Good morning, good afternoon, good evening.
You're just giving people a general...
Yeah.
It's actually good afternoon for us. Yeah, we normally film, okay, okay. Good morning, good afternoon, good evening. You're just giving people a general. Yeah. It's actually good afternoon for us.
Yeah, we normally film right in the morning.
We just had a lovely girls' lunch.
I had a cheese straw.
Yeah, your lunch was so random.
She picked up something else from another place as well.
Well, you know what I should have just done?
I should have just got the beef slices and the egg.
And I looked at them and I thought, no, I kind of want a pastry.
Oh, you wanted protein with your salad?
Yes, yes, yes. That's what you said on the voice note. I was like, I don't know what she's I kind of want a pastry. Oh, you wanted protein with your salad? Yes, yes, yes.
That's what you said on the voice note.
I was like, I don't know what she's on about protein with a salad.
I'm like, there is no salad that she's got.
Yeah.
I was like, I'm going to leave her to that.
I know, it's just too complicated to involve you with that.
Right, guys, Gail's avocado on toast.
It's breathtaking.
I don't know what the sourdough is.
It's like grain grain grain the avocado
is mixed with pesto and then
they have this tomato relish which I actually don't
often have because I think I'm really acidity
acidic
excellent with the gale sausage roll
normally my sourdough
wasn't that thick today but normally it's like
this thick it's like a whole loaf
it's lovely I go and buy
it sliced from them fresh,
put it in the freezer,
and then it's my toast every morning.
A grainy, nutty sourdough.
There's nothing better.
I agree.
I also love a rye bread,
like a really grainy one.
That one you had the other day that was like cake.
Where the hell was that from?
Oh, right.
That was keto bread,
and it was from Planet Organic,
and it was made of like eggs, nuts, coconut oil.
Oh, my God.
Like it didn't have carbs in
it was genuinely the most phenomenal thing so delicious but hard to make that savory like
actual toast i agree maybe with almond butter would have been nice but i don't want to have
my marmite and my butter on that no it was a cake and i didn't really want to toast it because it
was so moist it would also crumble crumble crumble on that toaster and then yeah i burnt bits i know
also like sometimes you just need a bit of that yeasty, you know.
Sometimes you just need pure bread.
Yeah.
I would go as far to say bread might be my favourite food.
I often think about this.
I'm like, one item of...
You went through a phase of never eating gluten or bread.
Yeah, because I just don't think I'm good with certain things.
But I found, after going to the Mayo Clinic, it's not gluten.
It's wheat, isolated wheat. I'm really allergic to. mayor clinic it's not gluten it's wheat isolated wheat
I'm really allergic to
so sourdough's fine
sourdough's fine
it's just wheat
which is in quite a lot
of things
but you know what
we live and we learn
so what's been
going on there
ooh
we've got on the list
Victoria Beckham
1050
I actually saw this
all over Instagram
it's phenomenal
she looked phenomenal
what I will say is I liked like the reposting of the old vogue interviewer she was very funny
and she was like oh am i wearing a microphone is it turned up because you know i found back
you know i've had it before where people just turn to soon to turn off my microphone and no one can
hear me she's so funny funny you don't see enough dry just so dry everyone says that she's the funniest
person ever and i'm like we see very small amount of snippets i basically go off the fact victoria
beckham's so funny from other people's words but i would like to see much more of it but i guess
that's part of the attraction to the beckhams it's just all very mysterious right well nicola peltz
and victoria seem to be best friends and it's really giving me vibes like they just are like
hugging and kissing and dancing and i'm like imagine how cool that'd be that'd be so cool to
have your stepmommas vb oh my god no when all the spice girls were there that was a vibe i did see
that and david was like doing videos of it quick you and i didn't realize evil angoria biggest fan
is harper sevens godmother it's Harper Harper Seven
I never know why
they hash
so
I don't know why
the fuck there's a seven
on the end
it's the weirdest thing ever
does someone even know that
but why if they
called their daughter
double baron
that's literally like
me like naming
my dad like putting
his first business
at the end of my name
yeah
like Melissa Box
it's so true
well in fact you could have been a bit more creative Victoria anyway and it's so true well in fact
you could have been
a bit more creative
Victoria anyway
and it's the hashtag
Harper7
I'm like
yeah
since when
I always knew it was Harper
I don't know what this is
going on
maybe they're trying
to make everyone know
it's 7
have you seen
those videos
of the Italian batch
whatever it's named
and it's like
celebrities
like picking the names
of their kids
it's like
so I named my first kid
like washing up dish because you know I thought it was quite unique and it's like names of their kids it's like so I named my first kid like washing up
dish because you know I thought it was quite unique and it's like just celebrities name their
kids like super unique names I think just to be different so they were probably like what can we
call our girl yeah that no one else is gonna have this name Harper's a nice name I was a lovely name
my get name list for my kids is wildly long like every name sometimes i just hear the sound of a word and i'm
like onto the list and then a week later i'll look back at it and i'll be like what was i thinking
you know what i mean yeah yeah yeah it's so like marble not bad uh marble though it's like a dog's
name isn't it is it marble isn't marble that is a name yeah maybe I don't know everything's a freaking name
these days
candy
that's porn star
vibes
Jamie just wants
Jamie
for every child
that's very
traditional
they have every
child the same
and they use
their middle name
and that's what
they call them as
that's why like
sometimes people
keep like generations
like their names
are all the fucking
same
right I need to
tell you something
guys
it's like Charles
the third
and you're like oh god Jamie's got middle name like throughout the family grant
has to be in the middle name i love the name grant grant okay maybe it's the middle nose and
maybe i'm getting it mixed up i think so because that would be very very odd georgia georgia georgia
georgia for me not really a girl thing. Only men. Wow. Sexist again.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Listen, so I'm walking down the street and bump into this amazing woman.
You know Sam McAllister, who was the woman who orchestrated the scoop, like, you know,
the movie The Scoop.
She orchestrated the Prince Andrews interview.
Bump into her.
Boss bitch.
Amazing energy.
What did you say to her?
I know who you are.
She said hi to Jamie and then we introduced ourselves and
like she was like so nice to my mom like alpha great energy boss bitch vibes and i was like
well done oh my gosh need to talk to you need to talk to you baby reindeer have you watched it
because i literally was about to text you go melissa don't watch it because you're like me
it made me feel have you a vile no no, no guys. Why? I felt scared,
like I wanted my dad and my mum.
Like Jamie wasn't cutting the mustard,
like I felt horrified.
Why?
So I thought it was going to be a comedy,
light hearted.
Right.
It's really not.
It's so dark and twisted.
It's obviously,
you know,
you watch things on TV
and you see sex scenes
and you see whatever
and obviously you see like murders,
all those awful things on TV. you see sex scenes and you see whatever and obviously you see like murders all those awful things on TV but this was intimate it was like the dark depths of a mind that you just
don't want to know any humans gone there and it was that really realistically on your TV like it
was too much for me. Does people die? I won't go into it because I don't want to do any spoiler
alerts but something about it is so disturbing.
It's the only way I
can describe it.
And it's called
Ladybug.
It's called
Baby Reindeer.
Baby Reindeer.
Reindeer.
Stalker.
Quite good.
Oh god.
Reindeer.
Is that you?
You've given me
goosebumps on my legs
and I don't even know
what the fuck you're
talking about.
Martha.
So am I going to be able to have my nights off from Toby after this or no?
You cannot watch it.
My mum was like, she watched it.
She was like, I fell.
Why are you making me want to watch it?
I know this thing.
Jamie watches TV as we go to sleep
because he'll go to sleep at like one
and I go to sleep at like ten.
I couldn't sleep through it.
It was that disturbing.
I was like, you have to turn that off.
But I heard everything.
So then I was like this, watching it all night.
So would you say it's more of a thriller or is it horror?
Disturbing.
Just disturbing.
Disturbing.
But is it jumpy?
Not really.
Or is it just like, am I actually fucking watching it?
It made me feel a way that I've not felt watching a TV show for a really long time.
Like I...
Like you're peculiar.
My mum said I hated every second of it, but I couldn't take my eyes away from it.
And she was like, I felt anxious two days after.
Is it creepy like Hannibal Lecter
sort of
no it's a true story
about a stalker
it's about a stalker
a girlfriend stalker vibes
anyway then Jamie
had like
this really sketchy
nightmare
every single night
that he watched it
that me and him
like broke up
and it was
all really weird
maybe I don't watch it
actually
I don't think
it sounds like
something I'd enjoy
I genuinely thought
Melissa no
guys you just wait till you hear this piece of juicy inside goss.
Taylor Swift dropped new album.
Guess what the pub is that the album's named after?
Five Minute Walk from our studio.
Yeah, that's the manager.
The team here at Jam Pop Productions go for lunch there every Thursday
if you want to pop in and say hey to them.
So it must be quite a legendary pub. Is it cool she must have been she's probably but she's probably
been all around the place but what a random place Vauxhall I know it is of all places extremely
random like I don't know why that pub is so good like maybe they sell really a beer or something
what do you think maybe we need to go and do a little d a little um recce dickie diver recce
Taylor Swift her relationship history is fascinating
elon musk she's fascinates me she's still with um fit rugby boy interesting yeah so her new album
thoughts we were just discussing this i love it i wasn't overwhelmed you know what i recently
have been confirmed i'm going to taylor so i really deep dive into it. I think I'm a full-blown Swifty.
Her music,
I've always loved it,
I've always known it
but like,
because you guys play it.
I actually didn't walk around London
with it in my ear
because I'm kind of a podcast girl
or country music.
But Taylor Swift,
I know.
I don't,
my sister's like diehard fan
and I've never downloaded it all.
Now I'm listening to it every day
and I know it's breathtaking. I'm quite jealous you're getting never downloaded it all now I'm listening to every hour and I know
it's breathtaking I'm quite jealous you're getting to discover it all for the first time
it's 10 out of 10 it's really great but like my favorite song is actually that one what is it
called end game I wanna be your end game yeah listen so Anne Hathaway guys has come out and
said princess diaries 3 is looking to be in a good place, but the sequel for Devil Wears Prada 2 is unlikely.
Okay.
Devil Wears Prada's, oh, it's so good.
If there was a two, but I don't think it'd compare.
Can't compare.
But Princess Diaries, bring it back.
Oh, my God.
Can we just speculate slightly for a second here? Do we think that she's going to be like with child
or have two kiddie winkles?
And it's going to be like her young child's going to be training as a princess.
Is it going to sort of like
go full circle moment?
Don't worry about it.
Producer over here.
Director and story writer.
Yeah.
Because otherwise,
where else is the storyline going to go?
Unless she's going to be separated
and she's going to find love again
with a new person.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
I think it's going to be three kids.
All three?
Yeah, three.
And one of them's going to be like 13
and it might be like a childhood.
And it might be like the actual storyline
would actually be more about the kid
and Anne Hathaway would just be more of like
along the lines of like the grandma vibes,
like how Julie Andrews was for her.
Yeah, do we think Julie Andrews is dead at this point?
She's still alive in real life, right?
Yeah.
She fucking better be in it.
I know, you know what I mean there.
She also does the voice for Bridgerton,
so I'm like, she must be still going strong
with her acting career.
She's just an icon.
Melissa,
should we go into
some dilemmas?
Yeah.
Hey Sophie and Melissa,
I'm 23 and currently
travelling around Australia.
After finishing uni
and love listening to the pod
during my travels,
it reminds me of home
and it's great company
doing the long journeys.
Whilst I've been travelling, I met a guy on Hinge hinge i didn't think it would be anything more than a fun traveling
romance but we ended up getting along so well our first date ended with us kissing on the beach
whilst the sun was setting it was so romantic over the next few weeks we went on more dates
and things got more serious we'd only known each other for six weeks but we decided to go on a mini
holiday together so we could spend more time just the two of us.
I already have my flight booked back to the UK for the start of summer, but since meeting this boy, I'm questioning everything.
I really, really like him. I've never felt this way about anyone before.
Stay there.
We had a very painful goodbye in Melbourne where we left each other as I started travelling again.
But he wants to come back so we
can be together so here's the dilemma should I go back to Melbourne enjoy one final month of this
wild one travel romance or do I leave him behind and avoid the pain of saying goodbye all over
again part of me thinks you only live once so maybe I should just go back and see what happens
but I know he wants to stay in Australia and I want to go back to London.
Any advice would be super helpful.
I would, if it's summer and you're still travelling, I would go have one more month.
I'm not sure, I'm not sure, I'm not sure.
Or if you don't want to move.
But what's up with moving to Australia?
She doesn't want to.
But she might.
Is that the question?
She doesn't want to fucking move.
I would then go back to London if you're gagging to see him.
You book a flight and you go back.
You know what?
We can make long distance work, okay?
He can do... Australia.
Time difference.
But
maybe you can convince him to move to London.
Yeah, I part... They're not that different.
I know, maybe you could do six months there, six months here.
I think she should go back. I think, what a shame.
They probably won't be together if she leaves.
You're not going to be like, oh my god, it's my one...
Like, you're just going to fight through the pain instead of you spending that
final month in melbourne oh because i see you're still traveling during that month could you not
both go to like thailand and travel around thailand for a month so that you're just like
it's very very separate to feels well i think this is more it doesn't matter where they are
i think it's more so the goodbye has to happen again the feeling is going to get more intense
it's going to be a whole other month spent together.
I think go.
You live once.
I personally think go.
You're thinking about whom you've written in the dialogue.
Your heart's telling you to go.
Just go.
You're young.
You literally live once.
I also think at the end of that month, you both might change your mind about where you want to live and where you want to be.
Also, with newlyweds, we always get people writing in being like,
I fell in love with this guy traveling or like when I was 20
and then we couldn't be together because our past didn't like arrive.
And then 40 years later, we got divorced from our husband.
We bumped into each other again.
And I'm like, what the hell?
My friend, her parents are divorced and her mom has a new boyfriend.
And they were together, I think when she was like 19.
And they like rekindled their love.
And like, he's like like I've never remarried
and he's like I just never loved anyone since your mum.
I know.
And he lives in Australia.
She's moved to Australia to be with him.
No, no, I can't cope.
I know.
I can't.
I've never loved anyone since your mum.
I would literally be like I love you.
I wish that like someone felt like that way for me.
It's like, do you know what I mean?
It's so,'s so unromantic
but it is just so unromantic some relationships and you just fall into them you're like yeah
right about time we move in together by the time I get you a ring let's go right because it's the
timeline there's no like I never got over you do you know what I mean like you have the potential
here this could be the father of your children, the love of your life.
And, like, this could be the start of a great love story.
Although I understand the need to be sensible.
And I think that is important to take into consideration.
However, Sophie's right.
You only live once and you're young.
So just fucking...
Yeah, you only live once.
And also, like, what's one month?
Imagine you don't go just because you're worried about, like, goodbye.
You've missed one month of amazing memories.
Like, that just doesn't add up. And also, if you've already done the goodbye,
like, you can do it again.
Yeah.
It's like a second breakup.
There's no break enough for me.
Get your ass out to Melbourne immediately.
Back that flight.
Yeah.
Keep us updated.
Updated?
Keep us updated.
Because it's important.
Yeah, we just need to know.

Dilemma 2.
Hey, girls.
I've been single for over five years and recently went on my first amazing date in what has felt like forever.
We ended up spending the whole evening together in a pub and getting along so well.
He was charming, interested in what I had to say to say kind and genuinely had smiling from start to end at the end of the
date we had a kiss and he said that he definitely wanted to hang out again we've been chatting every
day since the first date and whilst it's been great to keep in touch the messages haven't got
me excited the chat has been quite safe with lots of small talk which isn't really my vibe
we had our second date and again we both had a really good time.
During the date, he said that he isn't actually quite shy and reserved,
which has made me understand why he's so far played it safe.
But this isn't something I'm used to.
I really feel a spark and I think he does too, but I want to up the ante.
I don't want to scare him away from being too forward,
but how can I get him to take the reins a bit?
I'm worried if it stays safe that it will go to down and I just don't want to scare him away from being too forward but how can i get him to take the reins a bit i'm worried if it stays safe that it will go down and i just don't want that to happen
you're gonna have to take the reins and over time he'll get the confidence yeah and learn to take
the reins i agree he might just be quite shy which is fine if there's a spark that's what you fucking
need yeah and if he's a lovely guy i think you're in for a lovely situation here i do think there's
something like obviously don't settle and i don't want it but there's something, like, obviously don't settle
and I don't want it,
but I do think girls, like,
I don't know whether it's Tinder or whatever,
like, people are like,
there's a blue list
and, like, a tick box
and it's like,
if there's a spark,
there's a spark.
Like, it doesn't matter
about this, that and the other.
You know what I mean?
Totally.
I so agree.
I also think sometimes
if you're quite a confident, like,
force of a woman, that can sometimes subconsciously make him take a bit of a backseat in terms of doing things
because he'll feel like you're doing it. Do you know what I mean? Like it sometimes like takes
you. Yeah it will just intimidate him a little bit. So I think that's okay. I think you just
have to let him build up his confidence and it will happen also i think you know have a couple drinks pay him some
compliments and like build up his confidence a bit more show him that you're okay with upping
me auntie and then maybe he'll be like oh she's down for this yeah don't definitely don't be like
no straight away don't also bring it up like i want you to be more handsy or like whatever because
that might also make him feel like
oh that makes me feel
insecure that you're
like telling me
what to do
totally
you have to be quite
tactical in these scenarios
and also it's such early days
it's only been two days
yeah like I actually
think if a boy was
upping the ante
I like slow steady
at that point
I don't
I just kiss them
yeah I've seen Melissa
she's
she like
grind grind grind snog I was like I literally draw to the floor, I've seen Melissa. Maybe you've seen me in action. She's like, grind, grind, grind, snog.
I was like, I literally draw to the floor.
Guys, you've got to think that.
When I met Melissa, she was in a relationship.
She was in a relationship for a long time.
Single, out.
I was like, oh my God, this girl's got me.
It actually felt really weird.
You know when you feel like you're doing something in front of your parents.
I literally felt like that.
And then they just went away, obviously.
I didn't feel that embarrassed because I just carried on doing it.
But sometimes. That was actually, I was like, I didn't feel that embarrassed because I just carried on doing it. But sometimes...
That was actually...
I was like, I didn't know where to look.
God, I know.
Really sorry.
I'm terrible.
I do think that's what you've got to do, though.
But sometimes you just have to, you know, just, you know, use your feminine power.
I don't know.
The power of the pussy.
Go for it.
The power of the pussy.
And it is powerful, you know?
Yeah, I think also you obviously are quite a confident gal
feeling it you're feeling it I just think yeah it's probably not always here but just
get a bit drunk you'll be loving it I'm excited
hey girls I'm getting married in a few weeks in Mauritius I'm on Roaccutane so I can't get
a natural tan so I'm having to either fake tan or get a spray tan my question is what do I go for
and will it go patchy by the time it's my wedding I'm worried about being hot and nervous and
getting fake tan all over my wedding dress especially as it was my mum's I know you're
both fake tan queens so if you have any tips on what I can do then I would be so grateful
it really depends how far in advance to the wedding you're getting to Mauritius.
You cannot get a spray tan a week before.
You will have to wait till you're there and fake tan the night before.
Or two days before, I would do.
And I would recommend the Tanlux Express Ultra Dark Mousse.
It's pink, so it comes out as a mousse and it's like clear and it develops but it
develops quickly and I and it is the best color it's phenomenal I mean you don't really I don't
really I see on your chest and I did it I did that like five days ago and it's just like a lovely
golden color it's very natural it's not too much I also know on maracutane your skin can maybe get
a bit dry so really overly moisturize leading up to it so your skin's really hydrated moisturize your ankles a little bit on
your knees elbows like around your armpits it's a big one and i would maybe do a little bit like
in your cleavage because it can take i don't know why it gets stuck that bit it does it gets stuck
in like your pores it's bloody stuck everywhere it's a bit annoying but moisturize then as before you're doing it like don't wash that moisturizer off oh no absolutely
not and then I would maybe wait five minutes and then what I do is with this tan I do two pumps on
each area so two pumps on the calves as in two pumps one calf two pumps other calf same on thighs
then I do a pump on each butt cheek because you want to get all around there you don't want to
be in your bikini like the next day after the wedding or whatever just do it everywhere and
get your mum or your sister or whoever your barista is to come in and watch you do it and
just be there hands on deck and I would do this either the day before or two days before and that
will actually be so fun and then in the morning you wash off um but don't forget to wear a mitt
absolutely wear a mitt absolutely wear a
mitt and when you do your hands do it really lightly i just do whatever's left on the mitt
and put a fuckload of moisturizer on your hands before yeah and then get a makeup remover put it
in between your hands like this and just do that like a wipe a wipe yeah just rub and go all around
the wrist part all around your nails mean, or the hand thing.
Sometimes I do a spray.
Oh, yes.
We have our lovely face mist.
There's so many options of face mist.
I wouldn't use the body fake tan on your face.
I would use a spray.
Totally agree.
And moisturise loads before you do the spray.
It's all about moisturising.
Same as the neck.
And the back of the neck.
Don't forget the back of your neck.
Because I don't know if your hair's up or anything like that.
That's a bit of an error.
And I know it sounds weird. I would also maybe put some moisturizer in
your ears because sometimes with those mists you can get fake tan on your ears yeah it doesn't
look great so I would do that practice now you've got a while practice yeah practice practicing that
keep doing that 100% and also make sure there's no fake tan do you think that the clear fake tan is a bit hard because you've got no guy colour
I don't know what it is
about that
right
fucking express me
it is the best thing
ever
and within an hour
you can see your skin
changing colour
so it's express
how long does it
it starts happening
after half an hour
your skin starts turning
but the great thing is
because there's no guide colour
do you wash it off
you don't have to
no
unbelievable
it's unbelievable you don't leave with like this dark thing all over it off? You don't have to, no. Unbelievable. It's unbelievable.
You don't leave with like this dark thing all over you
that you're like then have to rinse off.
You put it on, you look a bit pale
and then throughout the night you just get golden
and glowing and glowing and glowing.
It's absolutely gorgeous.
How often do you do this?
I need to start.
I only do it if I've got something
so I have to take photos on Saturday.
So I did it on Thursday.
And then I had to get,
and I got my legs out and it looked great.
It's honestly just,
it's the best, easiest tan ever.
Okay.
But definitely practice.
If you need removal, go to Bondi Sands, get the tan removal,
bring it out with an exfoliating glove.
Yeah.
Put that all over you and you're going to be sweet.
The instructions are on there.
But just make sure you're in good practice and you'll be absolutely fine.
It's not like a super dark tan, so you'll just be lovely and glowy,
which I think is what you want. You don't want to be like so fake tanned and like
i agree you know and like that you're sweating and then it stains on your dress that's not going
to be good you're gonna be beautiful please send us photos of your wedding best wedding
congratulations marisha as well stunning location okay dilemma four
hey Sophie and Melissa
I really need your advice
I've been married to my husband
since last June
however we've been together
11 years
wow
in January this year
he went on a stag do
in Thailand
I was already apprehensive
about this
given something
that happened with him
in Thailand
quite early in our relationship oh no he was aware i was nervous and visibly upset about him going he
gave me reassurance and eventually went on his trip well since he's come home i found his phone
that he has downloaded tinder within 24 hours of leaving the house no he also had an sti checked
booked for when he came back.
Oh, well, you have to dump him.
I don't even need to read the rest of the dialogue. No, normally he's a goner.
You have to get, I'm really sorry, divorced.
See you later.
I confronted him and he said he got brave
and downloaded Tinder but never used it.
Brave?
No, you became a cheat.
I became brave?
You got brave.
What, do you want to tap on the head for it?
I ate Battle of Hastings.
Like, what the fuck?
Are you joking?
And he needed the STI test because a stripper put her tongue in his mouth,
so he was right.
Oh, yeah, and my dad's the king.
Are you fucking okay?
Funny enough, he had booked a urine STI test and not quite believable.
I honestly don't know what to do and have no one to talk about it.
Whilst I was looking on his phone,
I also found emails from a porn website he uses often
and pays for cams and chats with the girls on there.
I've told him for a long time that I don't agree with this
and he has always told me he's deleted his account.
Apparently not, as yesterday he found his bank statements
and in the last few weeks he's spent £200 on them.
You've got a divorce.
You need to... Oh, and on top of it, we have just got on them. You got a divorce. You needed a divorce.
Oh, and on top of it,
we have just got back from a trip from a family friend's wedding
and he went out two of the nights until 5.30am
and I found that out he was in a strip club
whilst I'm asleep back at the hotel.
Where do I go from here?
Okay, you need to call a lawyer.
Yeah, get your ducks in a row.
Yeah.
Parents, friends, support system around you.
You do not... Sorry, the stripper, porn,
like that's one thing. He cheated. He cheated. He downloaded Tinder. He cheated.
And he got an STI check. He fucked someone.
And probably a stripper.
Probably a few people. We're done with this. We are done with this. And you deserve so much
better than that. Fuck that. You sitting at home being just a lovely human being and he's doing
that. I don't, I know it's really hard because you've been together for 11 years and that's a
lot of memories and I feel like because you've been together for so long you'll just be hanging
on to like in the wake of like that going on you'll just be romanticizing basically everything
that's gone on in the relationship and almost romanticizing all his fuck-ups.
Yeah.
Because that's just what we do.
Like, why the fuck do we do that?
Like, oh, they only did it because of this.
And you almost... You just felt brave.
You almost, like, make excuses for them.
And it's like, no.
No.
He is going to be like that for the rest of your relationship.
And either you're going to be okay with being married to someone
that's going to cheat on you and every day goes to Thailand
or leaves the house and gets brave and downloads Tinder
and does whatever he, you know?
I mean, it's the fact that he's called it getting brave.
I just called it brave.
That's such an insult.
I got brave.
I had the balls to do it.
I had the courage to do it.
Because I'm so unhappy with you.
I was brave enough to do it.
Be brave and leave me if you don't want to
because you clearly don't have any respect for me
and you don't want to be with me.
So you're the least brave.
You're a coward.
We hate him.
Hate.
Fucking pig.
He's a pig.
You pack your bags.
An STI, right, I'm sorry.
It's also unsafe.
Like, it's not, it's unsafe.
Imagine he gives you a fucking STI.
Also, just don't even waste your breath on this guy anymore.
Like, he literally has zero respect.
He's an awful guy.
Awful.
I'm so sorry.
The fact that he was 24 hours, he couldn't wait to do that.
I know that's a hard truth.
Yeah.
You know what?
It's not even like he's been traveling for like nine months and he got really lonely
and men sometimes do fucking weird things.
Sorry, 24 hours.
God, fuck it.
It's literally like he's gone gagging.
Yes.
Yeah.
He's clicked that iCloud button.
Yeah. You know the cloud with the arrow? The moment heging. Yes. Yeah. He's clicked that iCloud button. Yeah.
You know the cloud with the arrow?
The moment he left the house.
Yeah.
He's at the airport.
He's in Wetherspoons having a beer at 6am.
He's gone, Tinder.
Yeah.
Swipe.
Literally picture it.
Swipe.
Yep.
With his gremlin little beer slurping on him whilst he's chuffing a sausage in his mouth.
He's set his location to whatever.
He's vile.
He's set that location to wherever he's staying in Thailand.
Do you want to be married to that?
You deserve so much better.
And because you've been there for 11 years,
you feel like you have to stay and you fucking don't.
Amen, sister!
I'm so good at giving advice.
You know what's really bad?
I just feel like if...
Obviously, if I was in that scenario, I'd be able to leave.
No, you would leave that fucker.
But it's really hard.
It's like easy to give advice.
It's really hard to take advice on board when you're in those scenarios. But it's really hard. It's like easy to give advice. It's really hard to like
take advice on board
when you're in those scenarios
and I appreciate that.
But it's not going to be easy
but trust me
you'll be so grateful
you've done this
rather than have kids
with him down the line.
You're tied to him forever.
Like look back on it
and be like you know what
he probably will teach you
a lot of lessons from this.
You would have had
some great memories
over the 11 years.
Yeah.
But you leave that.
You leave it at that.
You leave it.
That's it.
And you be strong.
They were good memories
and that's it.
