Speaker 1: Two Teas in a Pod with Teddy Mellencamp and Cambridge Edge.
Speaker 2: Hi guys, welcome to another episode of Two Teas and
Speaker 2: a Pod with myself, Teddy Mellencamp and Tamborridgage.
Speaker 1: Is she in the twat seat today?
Speaker 2: I don't think she's in the twat seat. I think
Speaker 2: she's just in two Teas in a pod.
Speaker 1: But we're gonna put her in the twat hot seats.
Speaker 1: She has a lot of questions.
Speaker 2: And she's just twatty enough for us. I think we've
Speaker 2: got Stanbarry. She's born and raised in London. She now
Speaker 2: resides in Dubai with her husband, former Room Madrid soccer
Speaker 2: player Sergio, and her three children. She has so many
Speaker 2: luxury luxury brands, and she also has a relationship podcast
Speaker 2: called Divorced Not Dead. But we have a lot of questions,
Speaker 2: from pregnancy to fights to facelifts. I mean, it goes
Speaker 2: on and on, So let's let's dig right in. Oh hello.
Speaker 3: From my closet.
Speaker 1: What time is it in Dubai?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 3: Ten fifteen at night night? Yes?
Speaker 1: Yes, oh, thank you for doing that. I mean I
Speaker 1: would be in bed by ten, but well.
Speaker 3: I mean I'm in my closet in my bedroom. So
Speaker 3: I'm just gonna roll out of here into bed.
Speaker 1: If do you look so pretty and you're all glammed.
Speaker 2: One of my favorite appreciated from this last episode is
Speaker 2: when sergeys like, honey, honey, you smell so good, and
Speaker 2: you go you're like completely deadpan and you go body odor.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, he gets such a bad rap. Like, honestly,
Speaker 3: at the end of Housewives, there's going to be a
Speaker 3: safe as Sergio fund He's actually he's loving life. We
Speaker 3: have a very nice live. Poor Sergi.
Speaker 1: Oh he's fine. You guys are very entertaining, and I
Speaker 1: wanted to probably have your own show.
Speaker 2: Oh well yeah, your own pregnancy show. But I just
Speaker 2: do want to say this because I want to ask
Speaker 2: you a little bit about Sarah and Sergio's relationship about
Speaker 2: this book.
Speaker 1: Oh, you're just going to go right in, Teddy. Yeah,
Speaker 1: of course you have no fore play. You're not gonna
Speaker 1: warm her up. You're just going to go right in.
Speaker 2: No standary doesn't need four plays. She just wants to
Speaker 2: get right into business. Who did it happen? Was before?
Speaker 2: Was at lista Milan? Like there's been two times? Or
Speaker 2: that starts to pick up and be like there's a chemistry, there's.
Speaker 1: This between him and Sarah. There are people people are
Speaker 1: thinking on the ground that there's some chemistry between them,
Speaker 1: And what do you have to say about that?
Speaker 3: Well, I mean she's a sexy girl. Let's face it,
Speaker 3: she's gorgeous. You know, Sergio is much happier with women,
Speaker 3: he always has been. Sarah is very like him. She's
Speaker 3: quite soft. They always sort of gravitated towards each other.
Speaker 3: I'm not a jealous person. If Sergia didn't wants Sarah that,
Speaker 3: you know, she's that right there. I don't think so.
Speaker 3: She couldn't be said for a week, but you know,
Speaker 3: I and that's actually sort of petered out a bit
Speaker 3: now we're like a year on. But you know Sarah's
Speaker 3: I guess they're the same age they got on, you know,
Speaker 3: compared to the other girls when we're filming and everything.
Speaker 3: I mean, she was like the most sane person to
Speaker 3: get on with, wasn't she.
Speaker 2: She seems like them. I really like Sarah, but Tarma
Speaker 2: and I have different views.
Speaker 1: I feel like one of them, you can't did Teddy
Speaker 1: can't even get her name right.
Speaker 2: I call her Sarah.
Speaker 3: Sarah that's right.
Speaker 1: Is that right? Is it Sarah or Sarah Sarah?
Speaker 3: Really here? I think?
Speaker 1: But because it's okay, Yeah, most of the girls call
Speaker 1: her Sarah Sarah.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's no aige on it. It's Sarah Sarah.
Speaker 2: But Mike question is in regards to to pretty much
Speaker 2: any of it, any of the relationships that Sergio's built
Speaker 2: throughout the show. I don't really think you care.
Speaker 3: No, No, I really generally don't. I actually like Sergio
Speaker 3: to have his friends. I have no problem with him
Speaker 3: having someone to talk to. I don't like it if
Speaker 3: it's twisted against me, you know, I'm really I like Sarah.
Speaker 3: I have no problem with Sarah. I don't feel they
Speaker 3: crossed any lines. You know, I do. I Well, the
Speaker 3: only thing I didn't like was when Sarah did start
Speaker 3: sort of saying that again, I'm too hard on Sergio
Speaker 3: or whatever. But like, Sergio has been been with me
Speaker 3: since he was twenty four, and I'm tough on everyone,
Speaker 3: you know, everyone in my life. I'm just a no
Speaker 3: bullshit person. If you want to be all airy, fairy
Speaker 3: and fluffy, maybe Sarah is a better person to sort
Speaker 3: of give him the news wants to hear. But you
Speaker 3: know he's he's been with me for five years and
Speaker 3: he doesn't show any signs of wanting to know.
Speaker 1: Obviously he loves you to death. One thing that did
Speaker 1: bother me with Sarah is that she went to Sergio
Speaker 1: and kind of complained about you to him, and I
Speaker 1: thought that was just that was that was a bitch move.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I never like that. I mean, I don't
Speaker 3: like women in general going to the husbands yea, talking
Speaker 3: about wives, like what are you expecting the husband to do?
Speaker 3: And that's where it is now because obviously, once I
Speaker 3: put my foot down over that relationship, if Sarah and
Speaker 3: I aren't getting on, Sarah's gone. That's just going to
Speaker 3: how it is that relationship. That relationship lasts as long
Speaker 3: as I give it permission to last.
Speaker 2: Right, And so is that where you currently stand? Without
Speaker 2: giving too much away, I know that you guys have
Speaker 2: now whatever she said, broken bread with one another and
Speaker 2: supposedly gains are getting better. But are things not better?
Speaker 3: They're a bit there's still I think we need reunion
Speaker 3: to be honest, They're still they're not what they were.
Speaker 3: And you know, tensions are very high with Sarah. Like
Speaker 3: we say, one thing we try and make up and
Speaker 3: then it just implodes again, and I, you know, I
Speaker 3: do feel like the whole as what you're watching now
Speaker 3: doesn't really stand for what Sarah preaches. So I find
Speaker 3: that so hard to marry the person she says she
Speaker 3: is to what I'm watching on TV.
Speaker 2: But that's exactly what I've been saying. Sometimes when everything
Speaker 2: that you speak about is about you know, forgiveness and
Speaker 2: grace and then and life, then sometimes there is a
Speaker 2: really different side to that person, which is why they're
Speaker 2: doing all those things.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I don't know, but just watching it on
Speaker 3: TV now makes me very uncomfortable because if you like
Speaker 3: and love everybody and you want peace and love and
Speaker 3: you know, come buy our for everybody, but then you're
Speaker 3: backing one person that's literally calling a woman in front
Speaker 3: of you, I see you next Tuesday.
Speaker 1: And she's a hypocrite.
Speaker 3: Well it was a hypocrite and you're saying it's because
Speaker 3: of alcohol.
Speaker 2: But also she did something when she was at I
Speaker 2: think it was like maybe brooks Son's birthday where she
Speaker 2: like leaned down and she was like that she's on fire,
Speaker 2: and I like, did this man.
Speaker 3: At high five? What she's doing to Stanbury? How is that? Like,
Speaker 3: you know, she's condoning what Brooks is doing to me
Speaker 3: all the way through, which I just don't understand. It's
Speaker 3: like she's actually high fiving it. At that point, we
Speaker 3: don't have a problem. I didn't think we did. I mean,
Speaker 3: you know, I still don't know what made her turn
Speaker 3: other than my friendship with I am.
Speaker 1: So she's fake. She's using the spiritual thing and loving
Speaker 1: everybody and healing as a storyline.
Speaker 3: No, because she practices it in her home life. But
Speaker 3: I mean she does. Yeah, she's always she's on a
Speaker 3: spiritual journey now, so I don't I don't.
Speaker 1: Know what she's doing. Her actions are not spiritual.
Speaker 2: That's that's my point, my point.
Speaker 3: No one else seems to see it. I am saying
Speaker 3: it till I'm blue in the face and everyone's looking
Speaker 3: at me like I'm crazy.
Speaker 1: Now I see it.
Speaker 3: I'm going nuts on screen, you see me. In fact,
Speaker 3: I've been on Ladies of London as you just started watching,
Speaker 3: and all of these other shows. I've never lost my
Speaker 3: ship ever, I lost my shu. I'm like, what am
Speaker 3: I watching? What can't everyone to see today?
Speaker 2: I'm on a spiritual journey, but I'm also can be
Speaker 2: a little bit crazy, and I'm on the spiritual journey
Speaker 2: because I've had anger in my life or I've had
Speaker 2: heard or I'm doing whatever, and I'm trying to do
Speaker 2: the work to not be that way.
Speaker 1: Either you're all in and you're not, or you're.
Speaker 3: Not everybody else. You can't be half in and then
Speaker 3: you know, say you're going to heal everybody, Like if
Speaker 3: Brooks is healing requires all of us to get hurt.
Speaker 2: Since yeah, Brooks really cares about any of this shit,
Speaker 2: or she's just trying to stir the pot.
Speaker 3: I think Brooks is fine. Don't you fine? Do you
Speaker 3: do you really see Brooks in a healing session? I
Speaker 3: mean really, I.
Speaker 2: Feel like Brooks with the sage in your house really
Speaker 2: gave me rage.
Speaker 1: We're gonna we have to get into the Brooks at all.
Speaker 1: But I want to ask you real quick, I did
Speaker 1: I watched Ladies of London years ago when it played out,
Speaker 1: and then I'm like, I'm want to rewatch it right
Speaker 1: what it was so good? What happened? How did it?
Speaker 3: I haven't even rewatched it. Genuinely, it was really really
Speaker 3: hard for me at the end. As we went on,
Speaker 3: it was more and more of my family, and I
Speaker 3: just think I got tired and I you know, for me,
Speaker 3: when I left, I think it was quite hard for
Speaker 3: them to continue.
Speaker 1: So you left and then the show like, oh okay,
Speaker 1: that's why it ended. You left.
Speaker 3: I mean, you know I would assume because you know, I.
Speaker 1: Mean, you just didn't do well, you laugh, to move
Speaker 1: to Dubai with your ex husband. Correct, Yes, yeah, I
Speaker 1: had a.
Speaker 3: Bit the show and then my ex husband got you know,
Speaker 3: his job. It was in is in Kazakhstan, still in Kazakhstan,
Speaker 3: and he just said, why don't we try It's a
Speaker 3: two hour flight versus I think thirteen hours from London.
Speaker 3: You know, he was doing it every two weeks and
Speaker 3: missed half of our kids growing up, Like you know,
Speaker 3: that's why I was always on my own. So he
Speaker 3: decided to move here, and he thought we could be
Speaker 3: more of a family. Well that's slightly back.
Speaker 1: Are you guys on good terms?
Speaker 3: Yes? Really good terms? Thanks?
Speaker 1: Well we ever see him on Dubai?
Speaker 3: I don't, I don't. Look he didn't like reality TV
Speaker 3: when he was married to me. I doubt he's stotting
Speaker 3: back on now, but not. You know, he's fine, he's
Speaker 3: signed for the kids. You know, he's absolutely fine with
Speaker 3: all the rest. He understands things that are a show
Speaker 3: that you know, but no, I reality. He has a
Speaker 3: very different kind of world. He's you know where he works.
Speaker 1: Do we see your boys this season?
Speaker 3: Do you see my son's good question? I maybe once
Speaker 3: or twice, very very rare. You know, they're fourteen and
Speaker 3: it's embarrassing for them at school. They're not into it.
Speaker 3: And I don't force my kids ever. And just like
Speaker 3: we laugh at Lisa malamb because she always tells me
Speaker 3: I'm the world's worst mum, and I'm like, you have
Speaker 3: children that are five and six that will follow you
Speaker 3: around dressed up like the von Trapp family ages.
Speaker 1: They don't want to be part of.
Speaker 3: It, part of it unless I paid. It cost me
Speaker 3: way too much money.
Speaker 1: Fourteen fifteen sixteen is a very tough age for teenagers.
Speaker 3: It's embarrassing. They've blocked me. They've blocked me on all
Speaker 3: my social media. They're not on Twitter. My son said
Speaker 3: to me the other day, your TikTok is the most
Speaker 3: humiliating thing I've ever seen.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that sounds that tracks my kid's that same way. Spencer.
Speaker 1: Spencer will not be on the show.
Speaker 3: He's just that's and that's okay.
Speaker 1: And I'm fine with that too.
Speaker 3: I am. I don't need them in the show. It's
Speaker 3: it's a it's a forty plus year old woman's show.
Speaker 3: I'm not good with it fighting yelling, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2: And do you think as you're kind of, you know,
Speaker 2: going going through all this, we're seeing the highs and lows,
Speaker 2: how much of it do you think that we're seeing
Speaker 2: that feels authentic? Because right now the issue that I'm
Speaker 2: having with all this stuff with Telene, with everything with Brooks,
Speaker 2: we saw in the last episode, we saw a couple
Speaker 2: of pans to like Toleene filming last season or whatever
Speaker 2: it may be, Like do you think she owes Brooks
Speaker 2: anything about being on the show or do you think
Speaker 2: it was one of those situations like how you have
Speaker 2: any one of your friends on the shows?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't think. You know, Look, it's very difficult
Speaker 3: as a person coming when you invite a person on,
Speaker 3: It's always a tricky situation because you know, I think
Speaker 3: on some small part of you hopes that they're going
Speaker 3: to be your friend. Right, you all kind of need
Speaker 3: a friend. I mean, out of everyone, I would love
Speaker 3: to have a friend on the show because nobody particularly
Speaker 3: loves me. But you know, it never pans out that way.
Speaker 3: So Tarlene, I'm actually really impressed she came in and
Speaker 3: did what she felt she hasn't It was never about me.
Speaker 3: I think that there was a lot of frustration coming
Speaker 3: into the show. I think Brooks started manipulating her before
Speaker 3: the show to try and have her on side, and
Speaker 3: it just backfired. But no, I don't think Tarlene knows
Speaker 3: her a kidney or anything for getting her on the
Speaker 3: show right now.
Speaker 1: Was she a guest of Brooks at that time, Yes.
Speaker 3: Yes, she came on. She just came as a guest
Speaker 3: and in the fashion show of Lisa. I think. But
Speaker 3: you know they when they do look for new housewives,
Speaker 3: as you know that everybody puts names into that.
Speaker 1: I said that earlier on the pod.
Speaker 3: When you come from a small place and this is
Speaker 3: not this town isn't that big, there aren't that many
Speaker 3: to jews from everybody everybody, so sign you know, I
Speaker 3: think my housekeeper was asked to be a housewife at.
Speaker 2: Some point, speaking housekeeper. Hold on, no, oh, taking up
Speaker 2: your housekeeper. We have to get into Michael. Michael why
Speaker 2: is it that everybody's saying that Michael pays for your lifestyle,
Speaker 2: your house, your housekeepers, But like what, just give us
Speaker 2: the history.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, you know, I met Michael. I was
Speaker 3: the face of his brand here, so that's that's how
Speaker 3: I met Michael. So I mean thinking about it because
Speaker 3: I was racking my brain and Michael does. He's like me.
Speaker 3: He's very dry. He makes funny jokes. Maybe they're not
Speaker 3: so funny or maybe you don't understand them, just like
Speaker 3: you don't, and he'll always you know, he employed me
Speaker 3: as the face of Cosmosearche. So I have technically worked
Speaker 3: for Michael for the past nearly five years as a
Speaker 3: brand ambassador. I guess you could say he partially pays
Speaker 3: my bills, you know, but no, in this country, first
Speaker 3: of all, I have to prove, like I can afford
Speaker 3: a mortgage for the next twenty five years, so every
Speaker 3: piece of your income. I think you guys saw I
Speaker 3: did to run on a treadmill, everything like that. Michael sixty,
Speaker 3: you couldn't even get a mortgage here if he wanted to.
Speaker 3: It works very different from the US, and I don't
Speaker 3: think anyone would sign a loan for not even my
Speaker 3: own mother would sign a mortgage for me for twenty
Speaker 3: five years, frankly, But you know, I think that's the
Speaker 3: only thing that she could be referring to. Ianne is
Speaker 3: actually going to clear it up, because ian just said
Speaker 3: she was being bitch and Brooks had told her that
Speaker 3: again over the phone, and Iane is ian she likes
Speaker 3: to you know, repeat, and we weren't great friends then,
Speaker 3: and she's like, she said, she feels terrible for seeing that.
Speaker 3: I mean, she actually only said that he pays for
Speaker 3: my housekeeper. And I think it was just a poor joke.
Speaker 3: And Brooks has like literally said things last I was
Speaker 3: given the house, I can't catch.
Speaker 1: A oh, she can't keep her story straight. And all
Speaker 1: I know is all roads lead back to Brooks.
Speaker 3: Did you him out to Michael after Michael's furious because
Speaker 3: he said, you know, the one thing from him, he
Speaker 3: feels like it makes him look like a terrible friend
Speaker 3: and that he looks like you know, and he would
Speaker 3: never say. He actually wrote something really funny to me.
Speaker 3: He said, if I wouldn't confide in Brooks in my
Speaker 3: dog's vacation diary, let alone, let alone this anything about you.
Speaker 3: So you know, Yeah, he's really upset obviously because he
Speaker 3: feels like he feels like it makes him look bad
Speaker 3: and he doesn't get a void right to rely. But
Speaker 3: he said that's the only thing he could think of,
Speaker 3: and then he goes bitch. Technically, I guess I did
Speaker 3: pay your bills.
Speaker 1: But you know, there you go. Now, Brooks, what is
Speaker 1: going on with her this season? Is this truly who
Speaker 1: she is? Or is she just trying to do the most?
Speaker 3: What I'm saying all along, like this is like as
Speaker 3: I said last year. You know, last year I had
Speaker 3: it all. I was fighting forget Michael. Last year it
Speaker 3: was Nadia, the woman that owns where I lived, gave
Speaker 3: me the house that this every You know, she's always
Speaker 3: been trying to discredit me, and that's I think that's
Speaker 3: what triggers me, not what she's saying. It's just like
Speaker 3: I work so hard, I think. You know, if you
Speaker 3: see my Instagram, you guys see I'm always working. I
Speaker 3: Am not sitting on my ass so to be always
Speaker 3: have to sit on that sofa and tell people that
Speaker 3: I work. And I'm never going to be the.
Speaker 1: One that's fifty thousand dollars sofa.
Speaker 3: The one that I know well exactly that no one's
Speaker 3: allowed to sit on except the dog, my dog. But
Speaker 3: you know, that's what triggers me, not the words. It's
Speaker 3: just that I'm my god, I wish someone would pay
Speaker 3: my bills too. But yeah, I think that that that's
Speaker 3: the one thing she does. She just puts things to motions.
Speaker 3: She throws things out there, and she doesn't care what
Speaker 3: it leads to, what it kind of disrupts in your life.
Speaker 3: It's nuts, absolutely well, I think Teddy. You know, last year,
Speaker 3: didn't she say that Ianne's husband has another wife and
Speaker 3: kids in another country that she doesn't live with. I mean, so, frankly,
Speaker 3: Michael paying my bills is small comparison to that. So,
Speaker 3: you know, I don't know how she.
Speaker 2: Went on a whole thing, a bravo con about he
Speaker 2: lives in Ohio. He's never actually why.
Speaker 3: Son isn't her, you know, the whole thing, So you
Speaker 3: know it is. It's just at this point you just
Speaker 3: kind of have to roll your eyes and go, okay.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So the moral of the story is, guys, just
Speaker 1: don't believe anything Brooks says.
Speaker 2: But do you does she always blame it on being drunk?
Speaker 3: No, she she doesn't think she's drunk.
Speaker 2: She but she's sawing us sleep sometimes.
Speaker 3: Oh my god. She absolutely blames on production. She said
Speaker 3: she didn't drink at all. And by the way, it
Speaker 3: was so funny because she was friends with Nina Ellie
Speaker 3: and she had told all of them that she wasn't
Speaker 3: drinking this season. And I was like, I was again
Speaker 3: going nuts because they weren't filming with her, and I'm like,
Speaker 3: oh my god. She she can't give her eyes open.
Speaker 3: She cannot. Like we first stepped on, she was like, gone.
Speaker 1: How did you feel about her gas lighting Toleine and
Speaker 1: saying at the end of your party, you're drunk. Stop drinking,
Speaker 1: you're slurring your words. And she wasn't.
Speaker 2: Well, we don't know were either of them drunk at
Speaker 2: that point in time.
Speaker 3: No, I mean not, I don't know if Brooks was,
Speaker 3: but Tarlene was, you know, not drunk and slur. I
Speaker 3: mean everyone had been drinking, but not in a bad way,
Speaker 3: like not crazy. Just you know, there was no slurring
Speaker 3: on her point. I think Tarlena pushed it and pushed
Speaker 3: during that dinner. There was just I was sitting in
Speaker 3: between I could hear Brooks going fake, fake, fake, and.
Speaker 1: Then she lied. She's like, I was talking about you.
Speaker 2: How long were you guys add that dinner before things exploded?
Speaker 3: Oh my god, I had friends from la over to.
Speaker 1: And you had down there from a real housewife of Chester, right.
Speaker 3: Zach Cheshire. Yeah, I've known from years and years in London.
Speaker 3: That's the thing, you know. She can try and discredit
Speaker 3: me as much as she wants, but you know, I've
Speaker 3: been My whole life has been shown on TV for
Speaker 3: so long. It's quite hard to, you know, to discredit
Speaker 3: who I am. Dawn has also been my friend for
Speaker 3: fifteen years. So yes, she moved to Dubai. But no,
Speaker 3: the I think it started well, started with Brooks walking
Speaker 3: in with her nail technician, and then saging my house
Speaker 3: and then yeah, on and on and on. I mean
Speaker 3: where do I begin.
Speaker 1: That sage bothered me so much because it puts off
Speaker 1: smoke in your brand new house. Your house is white
Speaker 1: and bringing that and I thought, there's nothing ruder than that.
Speaker 3: And it's a brand new house, like you. I want
Speaker 3: to my house. I'll sage my house.
Speaker 1: Some people don't want smoke in their house if it's
Speaker 1: cigarettes smoke, sage smoke, Yeah, any of that.
Speaker 3: I don't like sage. That's not my vibe, you know,
Speaker 3: But that was just the beginning. Like I didn't know
Speaker 3: what to look at, the sage or the guest.
Speaker 1: But that's my question.
Speaker 2: Do you think that she brought the guest solely because
Speaker 2: to me, when you bring a guest that you know,
Speaker 2: like one, it's like a dinner party where you had
Speaker 2: written down names and you know it was inappropriate anyway.
Speaker 2: But you bring a guest that you know is going
Speaker 2: to just have to sit there and be your wingman
Speaker 2: the entire time, and no one's going to talk to
Speaker 2: and no one's gonna sweet. Like I almost think it's rude.
Speaker 3: It is rude, awful for her.
Speaker 2: That's not even just for you. It's terrible to the
Speaker 2: person having to sit there feeling like an asshole.
Speaker 3: The girl standing in front of me, and I didn't
Speaker 3: know what to say. But it's not like I couldn't
Speaker 3: even whip up her some more food because it was
Speaker 3: an actual plated dinner, so she had it. Someone else wouldn't.
Speaker 3: It was, But no, Brooks brings somebody to every single
Speaker 3: event because she cannot handle stuff on her own. She
Speaker 3: needs back up, and that's it. That's all. It is
Speaker 3: someone to sit there and say you're right. And it
Speaker 3: happened off camera too. I had my birthday and I
Speaker 3: called her just before and you'll notice she was you
Speaker 3: owing pretty much the I mean, apart from Lisa, because
Speaker 3: I didn't invite her. But that didn't come because I said,
Speaker 3: you cannot bring anyone, and she said, well, I don't
Speaker 3: have a boyfriend. I said, but this, you know forty
Speaker 3: of my close friends. That's it. I just want my friends.
Speaker 3: I don't want, you know, rent a crowd in my house.
Speaker 3: I you know that she knew everybody. It's not like
Speaker 3: she doesn't know us. She doesn't need to bring a friend.
Speaker 3: She's not going somewhere completely alone. Right.
Speaker 2: And also, just you just mentioned Lisa's name, who you
Speaker 2: didn't invite. So I had said something on the previous
Speaker 2: part and Tam was like, Teddy, why are you manifesting
Speaker 2: bad shit? Like what in my gut? I feel like
Speaker 2: we're about to get some sort of a blow up
Speaker 2: between Lisa and her husband. Am I wrong? You don't
Speaker 2: have to tell me any details.
Speaker 3: You know? I I I actually don't know because I
Speaker 3: didn't film with Lisa very much. And I was just
Speaker 3: as shocked as the rest of us to see that
Speaker 3: that part with I am discussing her marriage, I had
Speaker 3: no idea.
Speaker 1: I mean, to me, they seem cute together. Opened I
Speaker 1: really like to support. Obviously, she wears the pants in
Speaker 1: the family, she orders the meal, he gets pedicures like
Speaker 1: it's it's a different vibe than most.
Speaker 3: And well, I mean that, you know, she says that
Speaker 3: I I boss Saudio around, So there you go.
Speaker 4: Well you do what I do, you know, Yeah, but
Speaker 4: sometimes men you wear the pants sometimes, but sometimes men
Speaker 4: need to be bossed around.
Speaker 3: So honestly, if he didn't like it, he would tell me, yeah, doesn't.
Speaker 3: He's actually happy, believe it or not. We're really really
Speaker 3: working well together the most.
Speaker 2: Why doesn't Why didn't you and Lisa film very much together?
Speaker 3: Lisa and I have a very volatile relationship. I think
Speaker 3: I've tried a few times. I wanted to really try
Speaker 3: and get on with Lisa, but we just don't connect.
Speaker 2: I just Colleen implied that she's faked. Do you agree?
Speaker 3: Yeah? I would agree. I mean I find her hard
Speaker 3: to find anything to connect on that feels real to me,
Speaker 3: you know, when you know what you say. I've had
Speaker 3: a bad day in my you know, maybe I had
Speaker 3: a bad business. No, no, no, mine's perfect. Okay, great, all right, yeah,
Speaker 3: if you don't. He tells us not to talk about
Speaker 3: her husband, her business, her life. Yet she all she
Speaker 3: does is talk about what a bad mum I am.
Speaker 3: My husband needs to be a maternity closed apparently, And
Speaker 3: imagine if I said that about her, you know, like
Speaker 3: she just she can dish it. She definitely cannot take it.
Speaker 1: Take good?
Speaker 2: Does everybody go to Bali?
Speaker 3: Everybody went to Bali?
Speaker 1: I can't wait to see that episode. We did a
Speaker 1: Bali cast one year and it did not go well
Speaker 1: for me. But let's change gears to your daughter, your
Speaker 1: beautiful Yasmin. She's been very vocal about her feelings towards Sergio.
Speaker 1: I feel like you and I can have a one
Speaker 1: on conversation on your podcast about this, because, as you know,
Speaker 1: Eddie's five and a half years younger than me. We've
Speaker 1: been married eleven years now. But I came into it
Speaker 1: with three little kids, one grown one, and they don't
Speaker 1: always have the respect for Eddie that they should, and
Speaker 1: nor will they ever because they it's always like, that's
Speaker 1: not my dad, that's my dad.
Speaker 3: All right, definitely going to have to have you on
Speaker 3: the podcast to do this. It's been really hard, you know.
Speaker 3: I think Yasmin, well it was a year and a
Speaker 3: half now, so I think Yasmin also has grown up again,
Speaker 3: you know, from then, and they grow so quickly, so
Speaker 3: I think she feels bad that she did that on screen.
Speaker 3: You know. Also it's that age where they kind of
Speaker 3: think they're cool, they say things maybe they shouldn't.
Speaker 1: How old does she know? Eighteen eighteen, that's hold My daughter.
Speaker 3: Is, yeah, sixteen and a half. So when she felt that,
Speaker 3: and you know, they're just coming into their own you know,
Speaker 3: they snap back, and you know it's difficult because he
Speaker 3: cannot snap back, and you know, especially when you've got
Speaker 3: cameras involved, there's also a bit where I can't you know,
Speaker 3: we can't all snap at her and tell her what
Speaker 3: even you're all, you know, when the cameras are there,
Speaker 3: you're all cringing, going shit. But it was a really
Speaker 3: difficult time and she thinks she's being cute and funny
Speaker 3: and it's really not and you can see and it's
Speaker 3: very very difficult, very difficult because if he snaps back,
Speaker 3: then you know, she goes running to her father as well,
Speaker 3: and then it becomes a thing. So look, I defy
Speaker 3: anyone with a blended family, as you say, and teenagers that.
Speaker 3: And it's with the age thing because she feels that
Speaker 3: Sergio is closer to her age than mine and she
Speaker 3: thinks our relationship is ridiculous anyway, which I understand too.
Speaker 3: I have to give all of all of these things
Speaker 3: a thought because you know, teenagers and young kids. Of course,
Speaker 3: I'm sure they make fun and I'm not a normal
Speaker 3: mom in a normal job, and.
Speaker 1: You just have to give it time. You know, Eddie's
Speaker 1: been in our life for fourteen years. In the early days,
Speaker 1: Sophia was only like four years old and when we
Speaker 1: got together and she was very close to him, but
Speaker 1: as she got older, it came into well, he's not
Speaker 1: my dad, Like why I don't have to like listen
Speaker 1: to him, you know, and every time and open his mouth,
Speaker 1: it'd be like her face.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they always blame them for the father not being there.
Speaker 3: That's really it. And you know, they think if like
Speaker 3: my sons, they think, if Sergio wasn't there, I would
Speaker 3: be back with their father, and that's just not true.
Speaker 3: And that's the problem.
Speaker 2: You know, you said this, Susan, which I didn't realiz
Speaker 2: is the time you said, you know, I think it
Speaker 2: was during COVID or something, but that it was two
Speaker 2: weeks after that essentially, you know, you and your eggs
Speaker 2: broke up that Sergio is there. Can you explain to
Speaker 2: us that timing just a little bit, just so we
Speaker 2: can kind of.
Speaker 3: We were separated, not divorced, So I was living downstairs
Speaker 3: and Jem was living upstairs. So we had essentially agreed
Speaker 3: to do whatever we wanted, right and we see how
Speaker 3: we felt at the end, you know, so we kind
Speaker 3: of gave each other permission to have asked no questions,
Speaker 3: and you know, see how we did. Anyway, I met Sergio,
Speaker 3: but again in my mind that he wasn't the reason
Speaker 3: I left. He was, you know. It was just not
Speaker 3: great anyway. But obviously the kids don't know. They knew
Speaker 3: I was living downstairs, obviously, but they didn't know our
Speaker 3: agreement or I think, you know, they always thought we
Speaker 3: would just get back together. But you know, and then
Speaker 3: COVID hit, and yeah, the father, their father moved out
Speaker 3: and Sergio came to visit, and so Sergia was just
Speaker 3: there very often all the time. You know what I mean,
Speaker 3: coming back and forth and then he moved in. So
Speaker 3: for them it was very quick and I regret that.
Speaker 3: But I do have friends also that have waited a
Speaker 3: year and a half and the kids had the same reaction.
Speaker 3: So you know, I don't that.
Speaker 1: Was my situation.
Speaker 3: It was.
Speaker 1: We didn't move in for I think almost three years,
Speaker 1: but there was still was just the.
Speaker 3: Part so it. You know, I don't want is better,
Speaker 3: I really don't. I just I don't think there's ever
Speaker 3: a nice way to wrap it up. You know. I felt,
Speaker 3: having watched my girlfriends do it, that if you just
Speaker 3: rip off the band aid, maybe or just they'll just
Speaker 3: get over it faster. But I think it's just it.
Speaker 3: It's the same.
Speaker 1: You know, it's never easy.
Speaker 2: It's not easy. And for people listening, do you think
Speaker 2: that there's like one thing, because I think all of
Speaker 2: us have been like this in our marriages. Yeah, you know,
Speaker 2: I think it's impossible to put in that you that
Speaker 2: it didn't and your opinion do you think was like
Speaker 2: the final like the straw that broke the camel's back
Speaker 2: with your ass?
Speaker 3: I think for me, when I knew, I was happier
Speaker 3: out of the house than I was in it. I
Speaker 3: was always looking for a reason to escape. Always. You know,
Speaker 3: if I could have a business trip, I would be
Speaker 3: on that plane. And then I just felt like I
Speaker 3: was missing so much of my children's childhood. And I
Speaker 3: also think if I look back at that time, that's
Speaker 3: why I can always see a woman in crisis.
Speaker 2: You know.
Speaker 3: I was drinking too much. I was partying too much.
Speaker 3: I was flirting. I was like, you know, I was
Speaker 3: like a party animal. Like most of my friends in
Speaker 3: LA didn't even know I had a husband, you know
Speaker 3: what I mean. I was a completely different human. And
Speaker 3: you know, I think whether it's a midlife crisis or
Speaker 3: I don't know what. I've been married eighteen years. I
Speaker 3: wasn't happy. I was acting out, and I think they
Speaker 3: just came home one day and I was like, you know,
Speaker 3: the guilt I felt of trying to then go home
Speaker 3: and be this perfect mom and like forget about you know,
Speaker 3: being wild, you know, drunk somewhere else and then pretend
Speaker 3: to be something else. I was like, I guess, can't
Speaker 3: live like this, like two different humans that didn't marry,
Speaker 3: you know, that doesn't connect. Yeah, So you know, once
Speaker 3: you're sick of that you would just realize you just
Speaker 3: have to make the leap. There's no going back.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I have a suggestion for you. Yeah, get Sergio
Speaker 1: a robot baby and let him take care of it
Speaker 1: for two weeks and it might change his mind.
Speaker 3: It is.
Speaker 1: I did that for Eddie. It literally like, you have
Speaker 1: to take care of it. You have to when you
Speaker 1: go to the grocery store, you have to take this baby.
Speaker 1: It's cooked up to a computer, it cries, it goes
Speaker 1: to the bathroom. You need to feed it, you need
Speaker 1: to do all that. I mean, I personally at night
Speaker 1: would stick it in the couch underneath the cushions because
Speaker 1: I'm not getting you have to get up in the
Speaker 1: middle of the night with it.
Speaker 3: It's like, because he came home from dinner the other
Speaker 3: night with his father and they've gone out, just the
Speaker 3: two of them, and he came back into the bedroom
Speaker 3: and he goes, I want a baby, and I was like,
Speaker 3: oh my God, like this, like I was hoping his
Speaker 3: father would talk him out of it, and I'm like,
Speaker 3: I agree because he's only seen a baby like from Afar.
Speaker 3: And they come over for a minute and they look
Speaker 3: really cute, and then that you know, the way again, Like,
Speaker 3: I absolutely think the Astra baby, I've got to reach
Speaker 3: out to them. I wonder if they would you should.
Speaker 1: It is so amazing because it's like having a real
Speaker 1: baby and just say, you know, it's your Joe. Here
Speaker 1: you go for two weeks of your life. You take
Speaker 1: care of this baby, everywhere he goes, everything he does.
Speaker 1: The baby comes fast.
Speaker 2: I love that we know that Sergio's behind the camera
Speaker 2: right now.
Speaker 1: It is connected to a computer, so if you don't
Speaker 1: feed it, it's going to rate you if you're a
Speaker 1: bad parent.
Speaker 3: Do you hear that it rates you, darling? Yes, you're
Speaker 3: doing yes, happening.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, please keep us posted on Sergio's rating.
Speaker 2: After two weeks, I'm going to reach.
Speaker 3: Is it on Instagram?
Speaker 1: I'll find it. I can't remember, I'll look for it
Speaker 1: and then I'll send you.
Speaker 3: The information gift gift you can give me.
Speaker 2: And I know we're running out of time, but we
Speaker 2: need to ask how you and I on went from
Speaker 2: liking each other at all to not liking each other
Speaker 2: at all this entire season to becoming close.
Speaker 3: Through the season. Look, it started after reunion and we
Speaker 3: did sort of chat, and I think Andy and everybody
Speaker 3: had said, you know, you guys have got to like
Speaker 3: get on at some point, and we kind of realized
Speaker 3: it couldn't get worse than it was. And then, you know,
Speaker 3: it was a slow ride. We didn't trust each other,
Speaker 3: we didn't really like each other, and then as we
Speaker 3: got to know each other, you'll see, and you'll see.
Speaker 3: That's why I'm saying when you ask me, when she's
Speaker 3: saying all these things, you know she regrets everything, because
Speaker 3: you know, she sees we really do have a real
Speaker 3: relationship now and we really do get on. And she's
Speaker 3: a great human And I really understand all these things
Speaker 3: that annoyed me so much about her, the ridiculous sort
Speaker 3: of way she is. I understand why she is the
Speaker 3: way she is, and why she needs that attention and
Speaker 3: why she craves it and and in the best, in
Speaker 3: the nicest possible way, and unlike some of the other girls,
Speaker 3: And so I got to know who she was without
Speaker 3: the noise of the others. And so over time you'll
Speaker 3: see us just getting stronger and stronger.
Speaker 2: Who do you think you're actually closest with on the
Speaker 2: cast right now? Yeah?
Speaker 3: Iane and Tullen, Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1: Without giving too much away. What can the fans anticipate
Speaker 1: to see the rest of the season.
Speaker 3: Well, I mean it's a bit like Girls Gone Wild
Speaker 3: in Balley. I think, you know, a lot of fun.
Speaker 3: You'll see me let loose, and I hope that you
Speaker 3: see a more natural me than I was last season,
Speaker 3: because I think I was a deer in headlights and
Speaker 3: i'd done two rounds of IVF, I was moving house.
Speaker 3: So you're going to see the real me, and I
Speaker 3: really am sort of enjoying it now and having such
Speaker 3: a such fun with the girls, And hopefully as much
Speaker 3: as there's the drama, you'll see the lightness and the
Speaker 3: sort of you know, and why we all do housewise,
Speaker 3: because we do have some really really good moments as
Speaker 3: well as the bad. If it was all the bad,
Speaker 3: none of us would be there.
Speaker 2: And you don't have to tell us exact date, but
Speaker 2: around how long until you guys think you'll film the reunion?
Speaker 3: Oh, we'll give you August, okay, And.
Speaker 2: Who, if you were to guess, would be in the
Speaker 2: first two seats?
Speaker 3: Oh God, I don't know this year. Well, I'm hoping
Speaker 3: me obviously, and I am, but.
Speaker 2: If you're getting along that'll be hard because then you'd
Speaker 2: be the first two seeds.
Speaker 1: I feel like Brooks might be first dates.
Speaker 2: I don't think she's going to be first seed. I
Speaker 2: think she's at the end.
Speaker 3: I really don't think she's going for first I mean
Speaker 3: I don't think she's going for the first seed. I mean,
Speaker 3: you know, does a new beat Tyleen? Could she be
Speaker 3: she's done?
Speaker 1: You know a lot of not normally not normally well,
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 3: Frankly, I don't know.
Speaker 2: It'll probably be you, Tolene and Chanelle on one side,
Speaker 2: Sarah Brooks and Lisa and the other right, I mean, yes,
Speaker 2: the order unclear, and I just I.
Speaker 3: Can't imagine there won't be some sort of physical altercation.
Speaker 1: Oh Jesus, well, I had one, I know, Jesus to go.
Speaker 2: I have one last question. They said that you cannot
Speaker 2: like fight and have loud music in the streets of Dubai,
Speaker 2: so like leaving your party. But can you smoke?
Speaker 3: Six? Yeah, yes you can, because we.
Speaker 2: Saw Telene smoking a sig out there, and I was like.
Speaker 3: You can smoke in restaurants here. It's like by Goshville.
Speaker 2: Really yeah, oh my gosh. Anything else you want to
Speaker 2: tease before we wrap out? You were such an amazing interview.
Speaker 2: We're so grateful for you. Thank you.
Speaker 3: No, no, I think that's it. I'm really excited for
Speaker 3: you all to see it. I'm really enjoying watching it,
Speaker 3: even if it's you know, like you know, difficult to film.
Speaker 3: I'm really enjoying it this season. I like you as
