I wonβt give too much away but itβs a deep look at abusive relationships, the seedy world of show business & mental health & eating disorders #booksky

Whilst I know heβs his own person I would so love to sit and read a book with him without him completely having a meltdown. Help.

Donβt get me wrong, weβve had people show up for us, my colleagues especially have been incredible but the distinct lack of celebration cards & messages are a stark contrast to the birth of our daughter. #adoption
21.11.2024 09:13 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0This! Especially thinking about these things lately. Comparing my birth story to my #adoption story, people seem to really shy away from asking & supporting even though I can honestly say adoption much harder than growing your family biologically. We needed you all more than ever, be there for us.
