It's our last episode before Frankie has a baby, so we're talking about the obsession with 'natural' births, and stigmatisation of anything but (and the gas and air ban, too). And we're discussing nepo babies big and small - from famous offspring on the catwalk to the bizarre details of the Beckham-Peltz wedding being aired in a lawsuit.  Plus, how Charlie feels about being labelled as a 'dry texter', the Magic Mike review that no one asked for, and what cult watch Fleishman is in Trouble is...

This week we're in the mood for love - or rather raunch. While Frankie's plotting a Magic Mike spectacular, Charlie's getting back on the dating horse and hoping for a Diet Coke Break from the builders next door - though she fears reality won't match up to expectation. We're discussing Rihanna's Super Bowl half-time show and the transformative effect her public pregnancies have had - and continue to have - on the perception of motherhood. She's made moulded breast plates a maternity...

This week, we're keeping up with the Joneses - and while Frankie has just Modern House-ified her flat in the hopes of selling it (no plastic toys, no visible TVs), Julia Fox's no-fuss house tour on TikTok offers a glimpse of a cool-girl alternative to Mrs Hinch bathrooms and 'sad beige' nurseries. Even Marie Kondo has given up on tidying; so is an unmade bed the latest in Insta-authenticity?  Plus, we're talking about milestone birthdays and bucket lists (with just a week to go until 35,...

This week, Charlie isn't leaving her house and ignoring plans (we're calling it ghost-uary) but she's got some dodgy-yet-comfy slippers to keep her company. Apparently the youth are all doing it. Meanwhile Frankie's experiencing a body hair phenomenon and found a recipe that will cheer up winter evenings.   The word on the streets of Manhattan is that Aidan and Carrie are back together. We have questions: does he still love turquoise jewellery; has he built an eco home; what thread-count...

This week, without one single proper resolution between us, we've discovered that we're not really self-improvement types. Instead, Charlie's making plans to not make plans, and while Frankie wouldn't mind a bit more downtime, it will have to wait - first, she has some exciting personal news to share.  Plus, the book that Frankie recommends reading at the start of every new year, the best TV we watched on our festive break (complete with theme-tune singalong) and the shows that we're looking...

'Twas the episode before Christmas and Charlie has narrowly escaped a snowy disaster (thank God for her middle-class gardening boots) while Frankie has caught the winter lurgy and cancelled her party plans. Boo hoo.  Harry and Meghan's Netflix documentary is giving us lots to discuss: should the Royals be treated like celebrities; has the media gone too far; how much does an Hermès blanket cost? Also on the agenda, how does sitting for a nude affect body image? Charlie reveals all,...

This week, Frankie's embracing the start of Sagittarius season and working on her birthday list: anything OTT that she can wear to Christmas parties galore. But Charlie needs to work up some social stamina first, and see if she can work out how to balance a desire to make up for lost parties with the rising cost of croissants (and everything else) - what happens to emotional spending in a cost of living crisis? Plus, we're talking about royal plus ones, shapewear eureka moments, Joe Goldberg...

We're back! Did you miss us? After a very, VERY extended summer break we have returned just in time for the festive run-up. To get us in the mood, Frankie has tuned into the Christmas film of the season starring none other than Lindsay 'I'm making a comeback' Lohan. Thrills, spills and dodgy story lines for all.  From Kim K to Y2k's low-slung fashion trend, we discuss the reemergence of size zero and damaging body ideals. Why are we so fixated with it again and did it even really go away?...

This week it's been hot, hot, HOT. While Frankie has decamped to the cooler climes of Devon, Charlie is sweating it out in London – that God she accidentally ordered a fridge full of fizzy drinks. But as the heatwave rages on we ask: why is it still ok for men to go topless, yet women get shamed for flashing a nipple (see Florence Pugh at the Valentino show)? And if baring your boobs is considered unacceptable, how come every summer dress this season has a cut-out back that prohibits wearing...

This week, we're finally back in the same room - and a celebratory bottle in, since this episode was recorded following Rishi Sunak and Sajid Javid's resignations (and not long before Boris Johnson's). Frankie has been lured in by the promise of the summer sales, and Charlie is swearing off men after watching the latest from Love Island.  Plus, we're talking about the idea of taxing the childfree (no prizes for guessing where we stand on this one), and whether it's ever acceptable to baby...

This week Charlie has been recovering from a prolonged case of Covid – and finding some unexpected ways of keeping herself occupied in isolation. Two words: nasolabial folds. Meanwhile, Frankie's had too much caffeine following the purchase of a swanky coffee machine and hitting on a new business venture.  We're discussing Beyoncés new banger (and every HR department's worst nightmare) Break My Soul and asking, is it time to kick off our shoes and join the cult of Bey? Plus, forget Feral...

This week, we've both been watching Love Island - and we're divided on one of the big talking points of week one. Are Crocs really a red flag? Charlie thinks we'll all give in to them soon, but Frankie's staying firm. We're also talking about dating age gaps, lap dances, and celebrity offspring. Plus, Frankie's back from her first holiday without a baby in 18 months (think chic city break meets pink prosecco on the plane) and Charlie's planning a train picnic for her own (soggy)...

This week Frankie's binge drinking following an outbreak of chickenpox in her flat and the threat of a cancelled holiday (who said kids were a good idea?). Meanwhile, Charlie's contemplating the underwear situation on the Cannes red carpet and wondering when bagel bump dresses will hit the high street.  Is your Instagram feed negging on Amber Heard? As the Johnny vs Amber trial nears its conclusion, we explore how social media is playing a significant role in affecting public opinion and...

This week the Wingwoman is on tour... in Frankie's flat. Since her husband is only in the next room, Charlie feels it's the perfect moment to ask if they're amongst the growing contingent of marrieds who never have sex. And speaking of sex - we're also talking about the sweet scent of nature in May, which is apparently something of a turn on. Plus, Frankie has booked in for a haircut - please, all think positive thoughts, as this usually ends in tears and a ponytail - and is considering...

This week Charlie is throwing on her tie-dye and firing up the kiln, all in the name of finding a new hobby. But, can we really enjoy a pastime if we’re not any good at it? Or is being bad a something actually the secret to mindful entertainment. Meanwhile, Frankie is being kept awake by an unlikely bedroom companion. The newly released Abercrombie & Fitch documentary has got us taking a look back at the brand that defined teen culture. Why did it become so aspirational? How did it get...

This week we're indulging in a celebrity gossip deep-dive. The Beckhams threw a mega-wedding (with a mega dress for mother of the groom VB), Britney's having a baby, and Bennifer are engaged again - though we have a lot of questions about that bathtub proposal. Did he wear a suit? Half a suit, like Pooh bear? A bathrobe? Nothing at all? Plus, in not-at-all-A-list news, Frankie's on a wet beach 'n' fairground holiday in Wales, and Charlie's taking up a potentially-tricky new hobby (with a...

The slap might be all anyone is talking about, but there was another big moment from this week's Oscars and it's left Charlie and Frankie wondering: what's your game Liam Payne? Plus, has Beyoncé sounded the death knell of Instagram captions?  According to recent statistics, men are shaving off their beards. Why? How? And will we still fancy them? We also discuss the phenomenon that is 'short king spring' and wonder how shifting male beauty standards will affect Charlie's sex life. Plus,...

Do you date according to the horoscope? And would you snog someone the first time you met? This week, Charlie's been binge-watching Love Is Blind's Japanese and Brazilian versions on Netflix, and is considering the differences in international love languages. Meanwhile, Frankie's re-casting her rom-com in the light of something that Sandra Bullock shared this week about working with Channing Tatum... As calories are added to restaurant menus, we're wondering if they could do more harm than...

This week a highly caffeinated Frankie is recalling her throw-back beauty faux pas while Charlie is getting her thrills from fruit. We discuss the significance of Rihanna taking her baby bump to fashion week and ask, what's all this about potato milk?  As Jennifer Lopez's signals the return of the romantic comedy with the release of so-bad-it's-good 'Marry Me', we celebrate the cinematic genre and indulge in a little amateur script writing ourselves. Four words: Jeff Goldblum, fisherman's...

This week, we're obsessed with the con. We've been gripped by Netflix's The Tinder Swindler, and we have a lot of questions. Why isn't he in prison (when Anna Sorokin is)? Why do we always blame the woman? And why is it so awful to admit that money's a consideration when we're dating?  Plus, we're talking about Hollywood fatphobia, funny men, and Tesco moules-frites. Frankie's glamming up with nowhere to go, and Charlie's living in a rom-com (minus the rom).  To hear more from us, sign up...

This week we're getting boozy. After polishing off a bottle of red, Charlie is relaying her 2am tax statement ordeal and Frankie is in light despair following an Omicron-sabotaged week... But she is feeling zen-like after a social media mini-break.  We're also discussing celebrity pregnancy announcements; the good, the bad and the Beyoncé. And asking, what's the real impact of an Insta bump reveal? Plus, love it or loathe it Valentine's Day is around the corner so we've done a deep-dive into...

This week, our underwear drawers are in disarray: visible thongs are making a comeback and we're even wearing underwired bras again. Is 2022 the year of uncomfy undies? Speaking of uncomfortable, we're also talking about a Princely teddy bear collection, and whether it's ever possible to separate the art from the artist when it comes to problematic people.  Plus, Frankie's being snack-shamed by her toddler while Charlie's in raptures over Goldblum and MacLachlan on the Prada catwalk... To...

Happy New Year! How do you feel about resolutions? This week Charlie and Frankie are discussing the January tradition and asking: is 2022 the year we should rethink the entire thing? Plus, Frankie shares her revelation on anger and Charlie realises she might well be people-phobic.  Also on the agenda: PDAs, pasta, the UK's best book shops and the staggeringly fabulous return of Cher.  To hear more from us, sign up at TheWingwoman.co.uk to receive our free newsletter. Or get in touch with...

'Twas a week before Christmas, and Frankie was waiting for a PCR test to determine her fate, while Charlie was bemoaning the lack of sexual tension in the booster jab queue... ho ho ho, merry Christmas! SPOILER ALERT: this week, we're unpacking all of our thoughts from the first two episodes of Sex and the City reboot And Just Like That... We cried, we raged at the screen, and we googled cardiologists. Now we're ready to talk about that twist, the clothes, and the sex - or lack thereof.  To...
