✨ A night without dog hair, shampoo on my leggings or bum juice in my hair? What is this sorcery?! 😂
Last Friday I swapped my usual grooming attire for a green carpet and had the absolute honour of attending the Stand-Up Comedy for M.A.T.E. launch event at the O2, in London Toooowwwnnnn — raising awareness and vital funds for men’s mental health. 💙
As many of you know, I’m widowed — my small hooman Maxie doesn’t have a dad around, and that’s something I feel, deeply. I worry about who he’ll talk to as he grows up… who’ll guide him in how to open up, express emotions, or just be vulnerable without shame.
That’s why this night, this cause, and this charity hit me right in the heart.
I’ve followed Social Laughs for a while now — his humour is brilliant, but what I love most is his honesty. He’s on a recovery journey too, and juggling work, home, and family life just like me. I’ve always really connected with his content… so to see him absolutely smash it on stage (standing ovation and all 👏) was just incredible.
I also did my first ever interview with the lovely and Aleah (both were SO kind and welcoming). And yes, I helped Nathan from Married At First Sight find the toilets — no task too big or small for the Lovemud Dog Lady 💅
Was I starstruck meeting actor Perry Benson?… Not exactly… because I had no clue who he was (oops - Sorry Perry). But we chatted loads and he was genuinely lovely. Mental note: Google your celebs before the event, not after. 😅
And in true newbie fashion, I asked one of the paparazzi snapping away to take a photo on my phone. She had no idea who I was… but she was polite and compliant!😂
Huge love to everyone involved — what a night. Comedy, connection, and a powerful reminder that talking saves lives. 💬💙
Thank you if you’ve read this far and spotted zero floof mentions! Those that follow me for more than just dog hair and chaos - I see you and I’m grateful 🙏
