What was your last splurge buy?

Probably a nappy shop. I’m awful for buying clothes online, especially anything for Buzz.

I don’t think I really buy anything for me.

What’s your favourite website for buying baby clothes?

Zara is amazing.

What’s your biggest regret buy?

I think I probably have some outfits that I probably shouldn’t have bought.

Other than your home and car, what’s the most expensive thing you’ve ever bought?

My book unit in my office, which is in the backdrop of all my vlogs. It’s basically what I spent my advance on for my first book deal.

How are you with managing your money?

I’m quite good, I used to be really really good. I used to get £15 every weekend for working in a florist and I used to save and save and save and then spend it on something. Now with online shopping it’s a bit more dangerous.

What’s your weakness when it comes to spending?

Online shopping, definitely. Amazon, ASOS, Zara especially now they’ve got the ‘new in’ section.

What were your last five purchases?

I can’t even remember the last time I went shopping. Probably nappies, crayons from Amazon, some colouring books on Amazon, some breast pads, my BT baby monitor video one which is interesting.

Buzz does this thing at night where he’ll just sit up and then not quite have it figured out how to get back down horizontally.

Before I could only hear him whimpering for a bit and then go check up on him 45 minutes later and see him sat up. But now I can see him and go in like a ninja and put him back to sleep.
