Followed her for ages but she's really come out of her shell the last few months. She's just done a Friday night disco in her kitchen via Insta live with her adorable kids and it's really cheered me up! Been dancing around our kitchen with the lights off. Was nice to have a half hour just having a laugh after the last few weeks. Did anyone else see her live?? So much sparkle too!

Yes Sophie, you did well.

Powergower · 27/03/2020 19:22

Haha, I'm definitely not SEB.

Not mad if this is SEB though, she seems nice.

Haha, if that's you Sophie good on you, if not, I'm glad it cheered you up, god knows we all need a bit of cheering up now.

I didn't see it (meant to but missed it) which I'm really sad about, I read about it yesterday but was dealing with the DCs earlier. I think she's great. I follow her instagram and she looks like she's doing great with her kids, life, career etc. I would definitely tune in if she does another gig! I hope she does!

Powergower · 27/03/2020 19:26

The live is saved if you want to watch and boogie along. And feel free to think I'm Sophie!

If you are Sophie, Not Giving Up On Love was/is outstanding 🎧🎼

I saw her perform at a festival a couple of years ago. Very dull and brought no personality to the stage. Definitely don't have time to watch her prancing about in het kitchen!

mum2jakie · 27/03/2020 19:43

But her mum is great Grin

TheRealHousewife · 27/03/2020 19:57

I’ve looked but can’t find the link on her feed ...

YgritteSnow · 27/03/2020 19:59

She lives near me. She's stunning in real life, almost like a beautifully drawn illustration if you get what I mean?

HotChoc10 · 27/03/2020 21:17

She hasn't aged since the murder on the dance floor days! She is absolutely gorgeous

I saw her live as part of a xmas festival with the Wainwrights I was shocked my how brilliant her voice was live. She seems like a good laugh. Her house is fabulous. Sometimes I think where does she get her money from all those fab children and the massive London house? I didnt think she was that big. She looks like my friend, fabulous cheekbones and features yet quirky.

Powergower · 30/03/2020 00:40

Yes her kitchen looked fab and very quirky.

I saw it, I tuned in and I boogied !

Love her. She’s so beautiful and like a humble breath of fresh air.

I remember her mum on blue peter
A national outrage that she was an unmarried pregnant woman, and on the BBC

ladybirdsarelovely33 · 30/03/2020 01:23

Samtsirch I remember her mum too on Blue Peter but there was no outrage about her being single. She was married but didn't have the same surname as her husband - Bextor.

ItsGoingTibiaK · 30/03/2020 01:36

@ladybirdsarelovely33

The outrage was that she was separated from her first husband (SEB's father) and now pregnant with another man - a Blue Peter producer!

Samtsirch · 30/03/2020 02:22

Well she was threatened with the sack from the bbc
and I think @ladybirdsarelovely33 knows the half of it,
But not the full story
Thank goodness gossip gets fluffed
🤣😇

MovinOnUp · 30/03/2020 02:24

I did her makeup once, Back in her modelling days.
Lovely girl and flawless skin.

Samtsirch · 30/03/2020 02:31

@Powergower
and how will you come back from this??
🤣🥰😍

groovergirl · 30/03/2020 03:59

Sophie has tweeted that she'll do another kitchen disco on April 3, 6.30pm GMT. Yay! Missed the first one, from which come reports that her version of Yes Sir, I Can Boogie is a sensation.
Glitterball

Sounds worth my getting out of bed early Saturday morning, Australian time.

We saw her live in Cambridge last year. She was amazing. Beautiful voice and a great show.
