The last line of the whole series is about my mum.

that's a lovely legacy, you know, and it's heartbreaking that I've said, I can't wait to make all these memories.

Now that was filmed last June and I had loads of lovely memories with her that obviously people didn't get to see.

But I remember having to write an Instagram story and put out, we are devastated at the loss of her mum.

And I'm going, is this actually happening? Is this, Is this life right now? So it was really cruel.
