Real Housewives’ of London Juliet Mayhew opens up about life on and off camera, from her 20-year marriage to Anthony ‘Tiggy’ Mayhew to the reality-TV rows that require “crocodile hide”. She reveals why modern dating would terrify her, and how her ‘Shakesperian’ family keeps her grounded. Juliet also talks treatments, make-up, solo trips, her Aussie soul and British heart, and admits a Housewives finally is far scarier than performing on the WestEnd stage and why Portia the dog is the real queen at home…. In this candid conversation with Siobhan Wykes, Juliet shares the extraordinary story of how she first met her husband, why he knew she was “the one” long before they officially met, and how heartbreak with a former fiancé unexpectedly led her to lasting happiness. She reflects on the challenges of balancing family life with reality television, why her children always come first, and the advice that helped her survive the emotional rollercoaster of filming. Juliet also reveals the three qualities she believes every successful relationship needs, why transparency is essential, and the dating red flags she’d tell every newly single woman to watch out for. She discusses life behind the scenes of The Real Housewives of London, watching herself back on television, coping with public confrontations, rebuilding friendships after filming, and why she’s learned not to explain herself when accusations fly. The conversation also covers beauty treatments, confidence, career failures, travelling alone, her love of Australia and Britain, life as an actress before marriage, and why independence has helped keep her marriage strong. Plus, Juliet takes on the Suddenly Single Honesty Box, revealing everything from her guilty pleasures to her dream date, favourite parties and why she’d happily go to the theatre on her own.

He’s been married for 28 years to one of the most successful Page 3 girls of all time, Linda Lusardi. Now both actors and panto season favourites, Sam opens up about their marriage, before he is joined by his wife to set the record straight on love, life – and the reason for their firm belief in psychic mediums. Sam reflects on growing up as the youngest of eight children in Liverpool, his early love of music, and the unlikely story of how his dad nearly became The Beatles’ driver. He shares how a packed audition at Pineapple Studios landed him his first musical role, before a successful career in Brookside, Coronation Street and Emmerdale. He also reveals the heartbreaking moment his mother died while he and Linda were on honeymoon, why family has always come first, and how the couple first met during a pantomime that changed both of their lives. The conversation turns to their remarkably strong marriage, why Sam believes no one ever really wins an argument, and the secret to staying happily together after nearly three decades. He also speaks candidly about playing controversial roles, the homophobic abuse he received after Brookside, and why taking on one of Coronation Street’s most notorious storylines was a risk worth taking. In one of the episode’s most emotional moments, Sam relives the terrifying experience of nearly losing Linda to Covid. He describes believing she had died in hospital, the extraordinary nurse who reunited them, and why that experience strengthened their shared belief in spirituality, psychic medium June Field and the possibility of life beyond death. Linda then joins the conversation for the Suddenly Single Honesty Box, where the couple reveal the secrets behind their enduring relationship, dating before apps, whether they’ve ever checked each other’s phones, their funniest dating disasters, favourite memories together, and why companionship becomes even more important than passion as the years go by. They also chat about family life, starring in separate pantomimes, their talented son Jack’s success in Miss Saigon, and why, after 28 years together, they’re still each other’s favourite person.

Best known as the youngest member of Bucks Fizz, Jay Aston talks about her days in the band alongside Cheryl Baker, Mike Nolan and Bobby G, the infamous coach crash that changed all their lives, being single until her late 30s, believing The Land of Make Believe is a place we would all be happier to live in – and why she’s finally singing with Cheryl Baker again… Jay was just 19 when Bucks Fizz won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1981 with Making Your Mind Up, complete with one of the most memorable costume reveals in Eurovision history. What followed was extraordinary: number-one singles, millions of records sold and international fame – but behind the smiles and sequins, life looked very different. Jay tells Siobhan about the devastating 1984 coach crash that left bandmate Mike Nolan fighting for his life and ultimately contributed to her decision to walk away from Bucks Fizz. She reveals how, at just 23, she found herself caught up in 13 lawsuits, lost her home and discovered just how little money the band members were actually making from their huge record sales. She also opens up about her life away from the spotlight: meeting her husband David in her 30s, his wonderfully low-key proposal, why their marriage has lasted and why romance for them can be as simple as walking the dogs or sitting together with a glass of wine. Jay also speaks candidly about her 2018 mouth cancer diagnosis, the subtle warning sign on her tongue that eventually led to major surgery, and why the experience changed the way she thinks about health, ageing, Botox and cosmetic treatments. Plus, Jay reveals how a phone call from Cheryl brought her back to The Fizz, whether her daughter might follow her into showbusiness, the £20 stage costume that almost launched a Topshop fashion career, and the piece of advice she has carried with her since childhood: take risks, because chances are you’ll never regret them. And, of course, Jay takes on the Suddenly Single Honesty Box of Truth – from Eurovision versus Top of the Pops to her favourite Bucks Fizz song and the career moment she would most love to experience all over again.

From marrying her first husband, photographer Tim Street-Porter, at just 20 to admitting her own infidelity and revealing why she believes she saved the best husband until last, Janet holds very little back.

Plus, there are stories from Janet’s incredible career in British television, newspapers and magazines, her love of London, art and opera, her Off the Leash tour and even a fabulous endorsement from Elton John: “The bitch is back!” And stay to the end as Janet takes on the Suddenly Single Honesty Box, answering quick-fire questions about passion, kissing, snoring, saying sorry, checking a partner’s phone and the realities of long-term relationships.

Following the tragic death of Ann Widdecombe, we wanted to revisit one of our favourite conversations with her and remember the woman we were lucky enough to know. Ann was unmistakably herself: fiercely independent, formidable, funny and never afraid to say exactly what she thought. She became a much-loved columnist for Best, bringing her razor-sharp wit and wonderfully dry sense of humour to everything she wrote. In this conversation, Ann reflects on a life lived firmly on her own terms. She talks about why she never regretted being single, the companionship of her beloved cat Aloysius, the faith that shaped her life, caring for her mother, and some of the more unexpected adventures that came her way – from Strictly Come Dancing with Anton Du Beke to Celebrity Big Brother. There are stories here that make us smile, and moments that feel especially poignant now. So this week, we’re remembering Ann as we knew her: strong, funny, forthright and completely unforgettable.

She’s still hilariously good fun, but the star of the naughty Noughties, Live & Kicking’s Sarah Cawood, reveals some of her early dating disasters. She insists she was more of a ‘buying the white dress after the first kiss’ Bridget Jones kind of girl than the Sara Cox-style ladette we all thought she was. But that didn’t stop her ‘face-smashing’ both Declan Donnelly and a guest at Holly Willoughby’s wedding. Ah, to be young again… In this warm, funny and honest conversation with Siobhan Wykes, Sarah looks back on the wild days of 90s and 00s television, the parties, the dating disasters and the relationships that shaped her life. She shares the real story behind the infamous Declan Donnelly kiss, talks about life alongside the ladette generation, and explains why she was always a hopeless romantic beneath the party-girl image. Sarah also opens up about the heartbreak of television moving on without her, finding lasting love with her husband Andy, becoming a mum later in life, and the life-changing health battles that followed, including sepsis, breast cancer and navigating menopause without HRT. As always, Sarah finishes by taking on the Suddenly Single Honesty Box, revealing her biggest dating red flags, love language, relationship deal-breakers and why banter beats beauty every time.

Known for her straight-talking, no-nonsense TV persona, Kaye reveals the very different woman behind the scenes, admitting she’s actually a 'real softie' who’s easily hurt - and that she could never survive dating apps. From rejecting a 'beatnik tennis player with mad hair' because she was looking for a flashy corporate lawyer,  to being embarrassed by his car, Kaye tells the story of how she nearly walked away from the love of her life. She also opens up about being dumped in Milan by a handsome Italian after a supermarket romance, and what the menopause can do to relationships. Learn more about your ad choices.

Disclaimer: This episode features the personal views and recollections of the guest. Any opinions expressed are those of the guest and are not endorsed by Suddenly Single, Hearst or its affiliates. Sir Benjamin Slade - aristocrat, baronet and owner of two castles - is searching for a wife. He talks candidly about what he’s looking for in the next Lady Slade - and why legacy and having an heir still matter so much to him. From his famously specific list of requirements (no Scorpios, no Scots, a driving licence preferred) to his belief that running estates is a team effort, he lays out his thinking in his own words. He also discusses the realities of life alone, why he says he can’t cope without a partner to help run his homes and social life, and the unconventional way he’s tried to find love - including television, social media and rejecting dating apps altogether. Blunt, old-fashioned, outrageous and often funny, this is a revealing conversation about power, money, romance and Sir Benjamin’s search for the ‘right woman’.  Could you be the next Lady Slade?
