Two Australian mummy bloggers have caused controversy this week by sharing their children's hospital visits. The backlash was immediate, with followers disgusted by the invasion of the children's privacy. Ruby Tuesday Matthews has taken aim at ‘fake arse' influencers and I'm here for it. Earlier this week, she attended a lunch to celebrate the launch of content creator Hayley Andersen's collaboration with Status Anxiety. Following the event, Ruby took to her Instagram story to put some of the influencers in attendance on blast. This week the Daily Mail broke the news that Olivia Rogers and Morgan Waterhouse have ended their seven-month relationship. Whilst this is one of the worst kept secrets, many are questioning the reliability of the source and the lengths publications go to break the news first.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The cover of British Vogue's February 2022 issue has made history. It's the first Vogue cover to feature nine black models, titled Fashion Now. The issue celebrates the rise of African models in high-end fashion, styled by Vogue's first Black Editor-In-Chief Edward Enninful and Brazilian photographer, Rafael Pavarotti. Undeniably it's been met with celebration but also some nuanced criticism. We hear from Chelsea Mtada, the Arts and Culture Editor at Guap Magazine. We discuss the new legal duties being put on parents who educate their children at home. Parents in England will have to let the local authority know and register their child accordingly. If they don't, they'll be penalised. We hear from Charlotte Ramsden President of the Association of Directors of Children's Services and Gabriella Rook, a young trustee from Education Otherwise, the longest standing and largest home-education charity in England and Wales. The Winter Olympics 2022 in Beijing officially begin on Friday. Around 3000 athletes from 91 nations will compete for one of the 109 gold medals on offer. So who are the women among the Great Britain hopefuls? We hear from the four time Olympian and BBC Ski Sunday Presenter Chemmy Alcott and from Katie Smith Olympic Reporter from BBC Sport. Big investment firms are missing out on up to 2.37 trillion pounds of potential investment because of their poor record in attracting female investors. That was a warning this week from the giant investment bank BNY Mellon, which revealed only 28% of women feel confident in investing their money. Anne-Marie McConnon is the bank's chief client experience officer, and she tells us more about their findings. She's joined by Sarah Turner the founder of Angel Academe's, a network for mostly-female angel investors. Social media is filled with bloggers and influencers – so how does someone stand out? Lockdown has seen a trend in a new kind of ‘insta mums' – who are bringing humour and a dose of reality to motherhood. Both Molly Gudger and Louise Boyce have built platforms on telling it like it is when it comes to parenting. Presenter: Anita Rani Producer: Rabeka Nurmahomed Photographer credit: Rafael Pavarotti
