Instagram post 2191717852355255313_537862275 Anyone else feeling emotionally and physically exhausted with the load that is motherhood at the moment? My husband commented I need a holiday the other day-think I need a solo flipping holiday. Can’t wait to head home to my folks over Christmas so I can be a child myself again. Sending love to all my fellow mamas holding everything together. I see you, I hear you, I am you ❤️. Illustration by epic talent @designsbykarina of a photo by creative hero @takenword for @metro.co.uk . Thank you both 🙏
Instagram post 2190723493565205561_537862275 The @metro.co.uk came to photograph us in our rented apartment in Windsor if you fancy a snoop around (Link is in the bio). Brexit has prevented us from selling our house in Yorkshire but hopefully we’ll sell next year and buy in Berkshire. More pics in the piece. Thank you Jerry @takenword for your super pics and being such a joy to work with 📸

Loving this pic with my boy as we pretended to be tourists in our home town of Windsor earlier (a PR once posted me an unsolicited gift addressed to ‘Honest Mum, Windsor Castle’ the postman kindly redirected to my PO Box as he recognised the name. Two queens reside in Windsor now 🤪. Too funny 😂) #ad
Instagram post 2187315765345801437_537862275 My new column is out in seriously gorge glossy @berkshirelifemagazine’s festive edition with mentions for @katiepiper_ @meatlessfarm @rspublichealth @itvnews @skynews @thejellylounge and @fafaspitauk. I share my journey back to being plant-based from veggie post watching eye opener The Game Changers and What the Health (have you seen them?) as well as discussing Brexit and child obesity on the box and more! Buy it as always, in all good supermarkets in Berkshire and Buckingham or subscribe...Oliver was excited to see it on the tills of our local M&S today when we popped in for bread ❤️. Well done @sarahrodiedits on another stellar issue, I love writing for you guys 🙌
Instagram post 2187099065774105623_537862275 We love our library 📚 so much and not just because they have a copy of my book MUMBOSS in there 🤪! Photo here from my morning homeschooling Oliver in the children’s area (what I don’t know about the Tudors now nobody knows let me tell you) and beautiful baby Grace @maricabamboo @bambooflowersuk joined us too. Look at the cuteness here as Oliver reads to Gracey. He just loves babies and keeps asking for one (and a dog)! I’ll miss my boy madly when he starts school again soon but we’ll always have the precious memories of the past 3 weeks together. What a resilient, caring and self-motivated child. (More about what’s been going on, on the blog honestmum.com 💻). He’s definitely taught me more than I’ve taught him ❤️
Instagram post 2185740104860920631_537862275 Christmas reading sorted. Thanks to my book editor @jillianlefort @piatkus_living for these thought-provokers 📚 out soon! (#gift #ad). What are you reading at the mo?

Instagram post 2183812400553089704_537862275 *Saturday night*...The best night with my best mate Will who I’m accidentally twinning with here 🤪. I actually counted the years we’ve known each other tonight (while feeling 100 years old) and it’s been 20 years!!! We met during our uni days in our late teens on a Saturday job at Tiger Tiger (we spent most of the time dancing to be honest so think we got sacked early on) and have been inseparable since 👫...I share so much about the sisterly women in my life here but I’m just as grateful for the incredible men: my husband @peter_broadbent, my pals and colleagues who deserve some space and appreciation (even though I have to wrestle them for pics because literally all the men I know are camera-hating shy guys 🤷🏻‍♀️). Well, Will is getting another square tonight as it’s been a while (and I can’t believe people dmed me last time I shared him here to say you know him, what a small world we live in). So some friendship milestones first: Will coming with me to an MTV audition I didn’t get, being able usher at my wedding, letting me mother him before I became a mum (he always says if it wasn’t for me he would never have eaten at uni), a million nights out, revising in the park, trips to the National Portrait Gallery (Will told me at 19 one day I’d feature...still waiting) and so much more. I love that we share so much history (the uni years were pretty wild and re-living the madness always makes me smile). Seriously though, Will has been there for me through so much. Too many times to mention in fact but I’ll mention one I’ll never forget and that was Will talking me through my big thyroid op step by step, pre surgery (he’s an anaesthetist) to help prepare and calm me and then calling me from the US as soon as I was out of theatre despite his crazy schedule during his fellowship at Harvard, spending an hour reassuring me when I felt frightened by the drugs’ side effects. I feel so grateful to Will for his unconditional love and enduring friendship and most of all, his crazy dance moves. Thanks to my one in a mil Will who makes life better ❤️
