I don’t think it’s unreasonable for whoever is better or enjoys cooking more to do most of the cooking even if they are also the one working full time, as long as the other person pulls their weight with the other house stuff.

If it was the woman working full time and still doing all the cooking most wouldn’t bat an eyelid as sadly lots still seem to think that it is a woman’s role to cook regardless if they work or not. I went through a phase of reading Mumsnet threads and was astounded at how common it seems that even if both parents work full time, the mum also does all the school runs, cooking and cleaning while the man plays PlayStation and goes out golfing. Worse still is that in these threads often the women would say they feel guilty if they ask their husband to do something, even if she’s exhausted and just can’t cope anymore. Like, wtf? I agree that sadly it is often women that hold back women’s rights.

Anyway sorry to digress...back to Kate. I find it really horrible how she calls Noa potato? It doesn’t really sound like an endearing cute nickname like little peanut or something, it sounds more like an insult to me eg calling your little baby a lazy couch potato.

I think it's more the way she screeches it in the poor baby's face, it just rubs me up the wrong way. I'm partial to silly names too to be fair 😂

Do we really need a BB post every single year in May and then another one in August on the anniversary of the final?? 🥱🥱

I hated her in BB, really unlikable and try hard. Started to follow her when I was pregnant at the same time and thought she’d mellowed a bit and seemed fun - wrong! She’s an insufferable car crash watch now.
Like an irrelevant child star that still trots out their catch phrase in their 40s to cling to fame - it’s not funny and mostly just sad.
She’s trying to be the person she was at 21 at 41 with a baby. The obnoxious ladette thing was a moment in time that’s passed, let it go Kate, it’s embarrassing.

Why does she have to post about Big Brother every year? When do you stop? On this day 53 years ago...

I called my kids "a bit of a potato" to describe their lack of ability to do anything for first few months. But it definitely was not a term of endearment, nor would I have posted it about them on SM ☺

Sorry if already been said - I’m catching up and don’t follow KL anymore on IG - but has she taken the baby to any classes / mum and baby groups? Might help her meet other mums... things are pretty much back to normal with them at least where I live, been taking my 10 week old for a few weeks now... great for bonding with baby too

Or is she avoiding because she couldn’t film there?

Didn’t she originally say she’d be going back to work after 3 or 4 months? I mean I hope she doesn’t though. If I can afford to stay off (pauper) then she can. If she says she needs to go back because of the money it’s bollocks.

For some reason I thought it was 8 weeks but clearly I was wrong or she'd be back at work now. I am dreading the dreary interview she did the other day - it's going to be all about her and how Noa made he life hell.

Kate does not look particularly happy in Boj last story!! I was going through her Insta a few days ago and she was always out socialising and Boj was her main priority (plus those ratty dogs) and I do think now that Noa is here, Kate resents her and she desperately misses her old life.
On the odd occasion for a few minutes now and again most parents probably feel like that towards their kids but I think Kate always feels like it and you can tell just by looking at her.
I think she will be back at Virgin mid June.

I listen to Virgin Radio because I am stuck in the 90s/britpop, her afternoon show has been so pleasant with Gabby and Amy standing in for her. Gabby was pulling in record listening figures for the slot. I wonder how easy it will be for Kate to go back to the radio. If it becomes the Kate "my baby....." show it won't be long for this world.

She looks OK - I get the feeling he is very controlling and moody.

Side note: I can't stand men who reply for their GF's. She is perfectly capable of doing so herself.
