Is watching porn cheating?
Thursday, October 1, 2026 • Duration 30:14
What would you consider to be cheating today? The physical betrayals, sure, but what about liking other people’s thirst traps? Subscribing to an OnlyFans creator? Sexting with an AI chatbot?
At a time when we can connect with more people in more ways than ever, it’s arguably never been easier to keep secrets, cheat, or even just have a little flirtation. So, if you’re finding it hard to trust in relationships and feeling confused about what even counts as cheating anymore, you’re not alone.
This week, Millie and Clare are digging into the modern definition of infidelity, including a hotly discussed topic on social media: Is it cheating to watch porn?
What do you think? Let us know in comments, reviews, and over on socials @CosmopolitanUK!

GK Barry asks: How do you have the ‘what are we’ chat?
Thursday, September 24, 2026 • Duration 44:48
The very hilarious GK Barry is our question-asker this week — and she’s asking Millie and Clare about a conversation we all dread: the ‘what are we’ chat.
Yep, we’re discussing how you go about defining a relationship, and when is the ‘right’ time to do it. No one wants to get stuck in a perpetual situationship, but how soon is too soon for the talk? How can you broach it? And how can you handle it if you don’t get the answer you want?
Millie and Clare get into it all — and stick around to the end to hear GK’s thoughts. Then let us know what you think in the comments and on socials @CosmopolitanUK!
GK Barry’s brilliant new book, It’s Giving Life: A Guide to Surviving and Thriving, is out now!

How much sex is ‘normal’ in a relationship?
Thursday, September 17, 2026 • Duration 31:59
Whether we’re adapting to a post-honeymoon stage dip in our sex lives or going through a bit of a dry spell, most of us, at one point or another, have likely been hyperaware of how much sex we’re having with our partners — and even fretted over whether it’s ‘enough’.
But how much sex is ‘normal’ in relationships? Is there even such a thing as a ‘normal’ amount of sex? (Spoiler: no!) Millie and Clare are getting into these questions and more, discussing why we should be focusing less on how often we’re having sex, and more on the kind of sex we’re having — and the intimacy we enjoy outside of the bedroom.

Is it ever okay to check your partner’s phone?
Thursday, September 10, 2026 • Duration 40:33
Be honest… have you ever sneakily gone through your partner’s phone? What did you find? How did you feel after? Did you regret it, or were you vindicated?
Whatever the reason for it, loads of us have been guilty of having a cheeky little look at our partner’s phone. But, as one reader is asking Millie and Clare this week, is this kind of snooping ever really justified?
It’s a juicy topic — and Millie, Clare, and Amy have v different opinions on it. Let us know what you think in comments, reviews, and over on socials @CosmopolitanUK. Safe space, we promise!

The Girls Bathroom ask: Can you ever trust a cheater?
Thursday, September 3, 2026 • Duration 41:45
Sophia and Cinzia from The Girls Bathroom podcast are this week’s question-askers! And they want to know: can you ever really trust someone who’s cheated before? Or is it true that once a cheater, always a cheater?
Millie and Clare unpack it all and from every angle — from dating someone who’s cheated in past relationships to being the person they cheat with to recovering from infidelity in your own relationship. Stay tuned to the end to hear what Sophia and Cinzia think…

Are you parenting your partner?
Thursday, August 27, 2026 • Duration 34:31
Do all the house chores fall to you? Are you the one who books flights, buys birthday cards, or remembers to renew the car insurance? In short: do you feel like you’re parenting your partner?
Well, you’re not alone — this week, one reader is asking Millie and Clare what to do when you’re sick and tired of raising your significant other.
If this sounds familiar, we want to hear from you! Are you stuck in this dynamic, feeling resentment? Have you managed to shake it — and, if so, how? Or maybe you like parenting your partner... or do they parent you? Let us know in comments, reviews, and over on socials @CosmopolitanUK.

Love Island’s Jasmine: Does ‘treat them mean, keep them keen’ actually work?
Thursday, August 20, 2026 • Duration 40:20
Love Island season 13 runner-up Jasmine G Müller is our question-asker of the week! In the villa this summer, Jasmine became a fan fave for speaking her mind and putting the boys in their place.
When strong women assert themselves like this, they can often be dubbed ‘intimidating’, ‘mean’, or ‘off-putting’ (@ Aidan) – but, as the age-old trope goes, ‘treat them mean, keep them keen’, right? So, this week Jasmine is asking: Is that good or bad dating advice? And listen up for a guest appearance from a certain Kavan, too (too cute).
Then head over to Instagram @CosmopolitanUK to see Jasmine take the Cosmo Quiz! And let us know what you think in comments and reviews.

Your friends hate your partner. Should you listen?
Thursday, August 13, 2026 • Duration 35:39
Your friend is criticising your partner or just flat out dislikes them… should you listen? Should they listen if you don’t like theirs?
Millie and Clare get into all this and more, with a little surprise appearance from one of Millie’s closest friends, KISS Breakfast host Chloe Burrows.
Let us know what you think in comments, reviews, and over on socials @CosmopolitanUK: is honesty always the best policy? We want your take!

Olivia Attwood asks: is ‘don’t settle’ just a toxic ideal?
Thursday, August 6, 2026 • Duration 33:57
Olivia Attwood is our August digital cover star — and this week’s question-asker! Off the back of a big break-up, the presenter, podcast host, and Love Island alum is asking Millie and Clare whether ‘don’t settle’ is realistic or toxic relationship advice, and if the ‘perfect’ partner can ever even exist.
Read Olivia’s cover story on Cosmo here, and let us know what you think about the idea of settling in comments, reviews, or on our socials @CosmopolitanUK. And don’t forget to tell us what you want Millie and Clare to discuss next!

Are you dating a narcissist?
Thursday, July 30, 2026 • Duration 36:48
At some point throughout your dating history, you’ve probably labelled an ex a ‘narcissist’, right...? Maybe they loved the sound of their voice a bit too much or had a habit of putting people down to big themselves up? Yep.
Well, you’re not alone. These days, the term is everywhere on our socials, to the point it kinda feels like all of us are becoming narcissists. And, in some ways, we probably are: our current dating culture basically encourages self-obsession and selfishness — whether it’s how we curate and obsess over our dating app profiles, our tendency to ghost each other, or our sometimes misguided prioritisation of ‘self-care’ above all else.
But what does it actually mean to be a narcissist? What’s it really like to date one? And what impact is our culture of egotism having on our ability to connect with each other?
Millie and Clare dive into all this and more on this week’s episode, as we hear from a reader who thinks she might be dating a narcissist right now, and one who already has…
Have you ever dated one? Or are you a little self-obsessed in dating (no shade here!)? Let us know in comments, reviews, or over on our socials @CosmopolitanUK. And hit us up to tell us what you want Millie and Clare to chat about next.
If you’re worried you’re experiencing narcissistic abuse, you can find more information via Cosmopolitan here, and can contact The National Domestic Abuse helpline, run by Refuge, for free 24 hours a day on 0808 2000 247.
