This week we’re celebrating Christmas – with a twist! I’m joined by the wonderful and charismatic food writer, Tom Parker Bowles. Some may know his mother – Queen Camilla, some may know his brilliant writing, and some may have purchased one of his NINE books!

Tom popped round for a coffee and chat and spoke all about his favourite Christmas traditions, what Christmas looked like in the Parker Bowles household as a child and what his mother still puts in his stocking!

I, of course, had to ask about Christmas at The Royal’s! He told me about his time with the Royal Family last Christmas, what they eat, drink and of course how they celebrate! This was a fascinating conversation discovering a little about our incredible King Charles and his love of food, tradition and family. Thank you Tom for coming on!

This is also sadly the final episode of Season 12 – and what a season it’s been! Thank you to all of my guests and to all of the listeners and viewers; this has been the best season yet and I appreciate every single one of you! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and I’ll see you in 2026 for another season!

I’m so excited to be working with Wayfair.co.uk for season 12! Why? Because just like great food, a beautiful home should be full of personality, quality, and joy.

So, get it out of your head, and into your home with Wayfair.co.uk.

I’m joined by Sadie Frost for this week’s episode! Sadie is an actor, producer, director, fashion designer and now a qualified yoga teacher. Making a name for herself in the 90s, Sadie was part of a pop culture movement during the hedonistic Britpop era. These days, she’s more likely to be found in a jivamukti studio, eating clean and plant based, and living a life somewhat slower than the noughties! It was so great to catch up on her life, how food has played a part and what the future holds!

Today I’m joined by my dear friend and star of The Real Housewives of London, Amanda Cronin! I’ve known Amanda for about 15 years now and seeing her light up my screens as the stand out star of Hayu's first-ever original series has made my life so much better!

From an idyllic childhood in Hampshire, to the bright lights of London, Amanda is a go-getter, a strong, fierce, determined and resilient woman.

She’s the CEO of Amanda Caroline Skincare, a mother and entrepreneur and now a TV star! In the episode we cover it all; her days as a model in the 90s, her love of caviar (and her caviar dealer!), her experience on the show, her issues (or are there?!) with Paddington!! IYKYK. And of course, her food memories, her specialities in the kitchen…. And her favourite crisps! Enjoy!

I’m joined this week by the gorgeous Sian Welby. She’s the host of the Capital Radio Breakfast Show, appears regularly on This Morning, and is a real bundle of joy and positivity! She popped over for a chat over a cuppa (apparently I made a good one!) and talked all about her upbringing in the East Midlands, her hustle from a young age to become a presenter (she filmed her first online show in the dressing room of New Look!), her time as Channel 5’s weather girl (obsessed with this!) and what it felt like to get the call from This Morning – her dream job!Sian is also a new mum like me so we really bonded over how we’ve tackled being working mums, especially in the same industry. I left the conversation feeling really inspired and full of happiness. Sian is a real girl’s girl and I absolutely love her energy!

This week I’m joined but one of the most inspirational women I’ve ever met; Fatima Whitbread. As an Olympic javelin champion, and world record holder, Fatima’s lifestory is one that will blow your mind.

Behind all the global success, Fatima’s start in life was not for the fainthearted. She was abandoned by her birth mother as a small baby and subsequently spent her childhood in the care system before being fostered. She has experienced it all, but has used her platform to fight for a better care system in the UK. Through her charity, she tirelessly campaigns for changes to be made, sheds a light on the realities of children in care and undertakes extreme challenges in order to raise money and build awareness.

Fatima is resilient, strong and a force to be reckoned with. This conversation was raw, honest but also full of hope. Please support all that Fatima does by visiting: https://www.fatimascampaign.com and help support where you can.

This week I’m joined by Jussie Smollett; actor, singer and all-around creative soul. Jussie is no stranger to the spotlight, since his first big break back in 1992 in The Mighty Ducks. He’s most known for portraying Jamal in Fox’s Empire, however, Jussie has also faced the dark side effects of fame. In 2019, Jussie was the victim of a hate crime in 2019, but he was then charged and found guilty of staging the attack himself, getting 150 days in jail before the guilty charge was notoriously overturned in court.

In this chat, we cover it all; life as an actor-singer, his time playing such a breakthrough role on Empire (he played a black, gay man), his new music and album (which is out now!) – but we also address the situation he found himself in, in 2019. This is a sensitive topic in which we had to be careful how we discussed it, but I hope it gives you an insight into Jusssie’s thoughts and feelings, the experiences he endured and how he has reclaimed his life back. This is a conversation about growth, reinvention, truth and love. Enjoy.

The gorgeous Helen Goh joins me this week on the sofa. As the pastry recipe developer extraordinaire, and long time member of the Ottolenghi family, Helen has been creating delicious bakes for over twenty years.

As a trained psychologist, originally from Malaysia, Helen marries culture, heritage and childhood memories in her recipes. Her first solo cookbook, Baking and the Meaning of Life has just been released and is not only full of fantastic recipes, but also stories and ideas behind the link between psychology and baking.

We discuss her childhood growing up in Australia, meeting Yotam Ottolenghi, and she gives her baking tips and tricks. Helen is such a joy to be around, so I hope you love this episode as much as I do!

This week I’m joined by one of the greatest voices this country has produced, Alfie Boe! As one of Britain’s most celebrated tenors, his career has spanned opera, musical theatre and pop. He’s won a Tony, played Jean Valjean in Les Misérables too many times to count, and has performed at sold out arenas around the world.

Alfie came over to discuss new music, the life of an operatic singer, how he broke into the industry, and – wait for it – he tries to shatter glass through the sound of his voice in my house!!
