DOUBLE DIGITS FOR DJ
It was DJ’s birthday last week and it was so nice to celebrate with her.
We went shopping at the Trafford Centre and had a really special day together. It was so nice to spend time with her, because I’m usually working on her birthday. After the Easter holidays she will have a party with all of her friends, complete with balloons and banners.
DJ is really growing up, but she’s my youngest and I still think of her as my baby. She’s such a mummy’s girl and I’ve really mollycoddled her, although I’ve done that with all the kids. I can’t believe she’s reached double digits!
SENDING MY LOVE TO HELEN
Helen Flanagan has opened up about going into psychosis after a reaction to medication she was prescribed when she split with Scott Sinclair. Good on her for being so open. It’s so hard being a mum. Say what you want about “D-listers” like me, but we get it from all angles, having to juggle constant criticism with parenting and relationships. Having children is the hardest job in the world. I have five and constantly worry about them all. The fact that Helen went and got medication is good too. When I split with my first husband, I self-medicated and that sent me into psychosis, so she’s doing better than me.
A CELEBRITY SCANDAL
The biggest story I’ve seen this week is all of the allegations surrounding P Diddy.
There are some big stars involved and he is being accused of sex trafficking, sexual abuse and rape. He has denied all of the allegations.
It’s mad that things like this aren’t in the press more, I always seem to find out on TikTok. If the allegations are true, it’s just awful.
It is worrying to read about. I think there is a lot more to come out when it comes to big
