Want more of Alex? Listen to Mia’s bonus episode with her here about having another baby in her 40s.

Alex Fevola is the founder of the successful beauty brand Runway Room, she’s a photographer, a mum of four daughters and a woman who has had to live some of the darkest moments of her life while the whole country watched - and sometimes while they laughed. 

On this episode of No Filter, Alex & Mia discuss the awful acronym that is the term WAG, how her marriage came back from an affair and a gambling addiction, and the secret she hid from her eldest daughter for almost 20 years.
