Summary
Louise has a foot fetish fan club?! Apparently so. It also reminded her of the time Lily Allen tweeted about her back when she was on Made in Chelsea… and let’s just say Louise was not pleased. Then we turn to Molly-Mae, reflecting on her announcement of her second baby. We share our thoughts on navigating pregnancy and public life, and the difference in how Ryan and Louise experience sharing personal news in the spotlight. Louise opens up about how emotionally challenging it was to come to terms with her changing body, shifting identity within the world of social media. We also address the adoption comments we’ve received, explaining why it’s not the path we’ve chosen right now and why that feels right for us. And we end our conversation discussing declining birth rates and why blaming women…looking at you, Steven Bartlett…isn’t helping. Louise shares how her work is actively challenging outdated ideas, and Ryan reflects on why it’s so important for future generations. -- (00:00) Coming up on this episode… (00:30) Louise’s secret foot fan club exposed (02:45) Why did Lily Allen tweet about Louise?!
