Like ships in the night we both chase our dreams, with a little boy in the middle who craves only for us to all be together, all the time. I took 3 months off work when Duke was born, and then i worked. And I worked and I worked. And I have kept working for the past 5 years to prove i wasn’t broken or beaten or damaged. But the time has come to stop. And just be a mum. And maybe admit that I have been damaged. And it’s time to heal. Really heal. And also just be his Mum. My one and only responsibility. The best one there is. 💜
Always try and remember how your younger self would feel about where you are today. Even though my 40 year old self has two busted ankles, a sore back & neck and a blotchy half dissolved spray tan- my younger self is peaking. ✨
When I told my neighbour I was doing this show she said ‘so….what are you, the star???’ So after being filled to the brim with confidence after her comment, I set off onto this very challenging physical journey. I have loved getting to learn ballroom dance with @mr_craigmonley. Also everything hurts.
Bye Melbourne. You know you’ll always be my number 1 girl. Also travel tip for flying alone with a two year old, 6 bags and a pram? Don’t. 🫠
The Grand Finale is tomorrow night! This cast were honestly the most supportive and kind people. What a bunch of charming humans. We cheered each other on, and comforted each other when things got rough. They all inspired me with how hard they worked. Ballroom dance is no joke. It’s hard and gruelling, and the schedule was nuts. And nobody was anything other than generous and classy. But nobody had my back like @mr_craigmonley. My Kevin Costner. 💜 (by this point I was held together by sports tape and hair extensions and I smelled like tan and sweat- it wasn’t pretty 💁♀️)

Not a day goes by that I don’t feel grateful to science/miracles for bringing Duke into the world and making me a Mum. I have learned so much from him. And I am in constant awe of the person he is. He takes life by the horns every single day and just will.not.stop (unless someone puts that hideous show CocoMelon on and then he is transfixed). But I know that Duke had to fight to get to this life, so I wont begrudge his fighting spirit now. One of the highlights of motherhood for me is at bedtime, when he asks me to sing Baby Mine. And I know that the song, in my arms, brings him comfort and he feels safe and I cannot articulate what that means to me. Mama is always here forever more. *also parenting is hard*

Just taking a moment to celebrate this man on his big opening of Beauty and the Beast tonight in Sydney. Lumiere means ‘LIGHT’ and that is @rohanmbrowne. The hardest worker, an incredible showman, an amazing company member and, most importantly, an adored Dad and Husband. Duke and I are so proud and happy for you Ro🕯️ (he is still the most handsome person I’ve ever seen)
Please never stop saying ‘LELLO’ for yellow. Please never stop asking ‘do you hear it?’ While holding your finger to your ear for every single plane that flies through the sky. Please never stop asking for cuddles and Eskimo kisses all day and night. Please never forget how much your Dad and I love and cherish you. Please never stop saying hello to every person you pass on the street. Please never stop being who you are in your soul and know we will accept you. But….. Please start to sleep or I will break.
Dancing With The Stars kicks off on Sunday 18th June on 7. You can see @mr_craigmonley drag me around the dance floor. He was the best teacher and had my back like a boss. I was so lucky. Thanks to @kelleyabbey @meechellebarr @xtcostume @martin_bray (and teams) for helping me get out there every week. Plus the rest of the cast who were absolute legends. (This amazing purple dress by @_zhivago_ 💜)
No better feeling than watching your beautiful friends get hitched. The love and generosity radiating off you both was just glorious to witness. Here’s to forever Jazzy & Shan. 💜

Yesterday Duke came to work with Mum and Dad and this is him hearing us on the tannoy and promising to be ‘berry quiet’ if he is allowed backstage. This video makes both @rohanmbrowne and I cry. Our little boy is growing up. 💗
Gave us chills! 👏✨ #DancingAU
💙🧢💙 I knew I loved you before I met you.
I’m just giving an #internationalwomensday shout out to the queen that is @chrissieswan (my new bff). This podcast is so refreshing. It’s the reason we have all been in love with her for all these years. She is wise, she is fun, she is generous and she is committed to living a joyful life. (Also I adore the men on this pod too, and the way they are so respectful and thoughtful and gentle). Who inspires me? A woman who is living as her authentic self, and spreading joy as far as the eye can see. That’s you C.S. 💜
