Summary
We’re hooked once again on the new series of The Traitors, so it felt only right that we sit down with Season 3 champion, Leanne Quigley for a chat on all things motherhood (and reality TV!)
Leanne’s story is truly remarkable, and with so much to unpack we've divided this episode into two parts. In this first episode, Leanne opens up to Gi about her IVF journey with her partner Sophie, and the incredible moment they discovered they were expecting twins.
She also shares the intense experience of giving birth three and a half months early, along with the challenges that followed and subsequent hospital visits.
Tune in for part 2 this Thursday - you definitely won’t want to miss it!
