Show Notes
Louise and Ryan are back from Antigua and they have some BIG news…👀 After two years, Louise finally found her missing engagement ring. Which raises the question… is marriage finally on the cards?
They also debrief the trip, from both Leo and Big Mike’s testing moments to Louise almost breaking her sobriety, there’s a lot to unpack. They talk about managing their IVF journey while away, and how it shifted their whole approach to the holiday. It also opens up a conversation about how holidays look different now they’re parents, which leads to an unexpected debate… should pubs be allowed to ban kids?
And with marriage back in the mix, they get into prenups. Practical or unromantic? And is it something they’d actually consider…they get into a little role play to figure out what they really think!

More from He Said, She Said
"Maternity system is fundamentally broken." It's a headline that understandably caught the attention of parents across the country last week. Following the publication of the landmark maternity report, Louise reflects on her campaigning for safer maternity care, unpacks what the findings really mean, and explains why the appointment of a Maternity Commissioner marks a significant step forward. Despite the alarming headlines, her message is clear: women should come away feeling hopeful, not fearful.
This week, Louise and Ryan share an exciting update on their fertility journey, opening up about where things stand now and the possibility of welcoming a baby next year. They reflect on the emotional highs and lows along the way, with Ryan sharing a powerful moment of acceptance as he talks about finally feeling at peace with the surrogacy journey.
This week we're joined by relationship expert and Celebs Go Dating coach Anna Williamson. As Sam and Pete's former dating coach, we had to get the inside scoop on what they were really like behind the scenes, and Anna shares a few stories that Louise and Ryan may not have heard before.
This week’s episode is a special Father’s Day edition, and one Ryan certainly wasn’t expecting. What begins as a conversation about fatherhood takes an emotional turn when a surprise message from his dad leaves him completely speechless, and the whole room fighting back tears.
