Lauren’s back from her family holiday, and while the hotel might have been gorgeous, returning home to a house with no electricity, a defrosted fridge and a period from hell was definitely NOT part of the plan! Meanwhile, Ashley’s convinced she’s being ripped off left, right and centre, from an eye-watering carpet cleaning quote to £150 nail appointments. Are people taking advantage, or has she just got more money than sense? The girls also get into a VERY controversial debate: if you cheated on your partner just once, would you confess or take it to the grave? Plus, fake lifestyles, AI-generated Instagram pictures and dating profiles that look NOTHING like the person behind them. Is anything we see online even real anymore? And this week's dilemma sees the girls tackle a jealous, controlling partner, a shocking threesome request and the difficult decision of whether to walk away from an 11-year relationship.
