Summary
On this week’s Ask Me Anything, Abbey and Peter are back with another batch of your dilemmas and confessions. From the struggles of life after sport and breakups that cut deep, to navigating big career changes and whether it’s ever okay for kids to sit on iPads during a football match, nothing is off-limits.
Abbey opens up about her hair recovery journey after a salon disaster, while Peter gives his no-nonsense take on love, regret, and why the honeymoon butterflies don’t last forever. There’s also chat about their trip to see Oasis in Dublin, parenting two kids under two, and even a heated debate on Adidas vs Salomon.
Expect hilarious tangents, unfiltered honesty, and surprisingly wise advice from the couple who prove that love, laughter and the odd eye-roll go hand in hand.

| 0:00.0 | Today's episode is brought to you by H&M and their new kids collection. Honestly, I blink and |
| 0:04.9 | suddenly none of the kids' clothes fit anymore. Trousers turning into shorts overnight. |
| 0:10.2 | And don't even get me started on what they actually want to wear. If it doesn't pass the |
| 0:14.1 | style test, it's a no-go. That's why I love H&M's new kids collection. It's of the moment and |
| 0:20.5 | the girls are obsessed and it keeps them |
| 0:22.9 | comfy too. There's lots of great pieces, trousers, sweatshirts, knitwear, skirts, dresses, everything |
| 0:28.5 | they need now it's getting a bit cooler. And the best part is the price. You're not panicking |
| 0:33.2 | every time someone has a sudden growth spurt which our house feels like that every other week. |

| 1:00.7 | shoot kicks in? Yeah, you've got to make the most of those moments. That's why I love |
| 1:05.0 | Starbucks chilled coffee. It just lifts up the everyday. Like when I'm stuck in traffic on the |
| 1:10.0 | school run or dragging myself out for a walk, one of these and the mood is lifted. And the best part? You can stock up your fridge at home, just grab them from the chill down next time you're doing the food shop. There's a whole range too, something for everyone. Exactly. It's a simple little pick-me-up that fits right into your day. Starbucks chilled coffee. |

| 1:35.9 | So Pete, some cracking shows. |
