Abigail Cowen, the star of Netflix's ‘Fate: The Winx Saga’ joins us for the latest episode of Reign and excuse me whilst I geek out about one of my favourite shows.

If you haven’t watched Fate: The Winx Saga yet it follows a boarding school of fairies - led by Abigail’s character, Bloom - who not only have to battle against evil forces but the drama that comes with growing up, tackling everything from addiction, to mental health, and the hottest selection of boys possibly ever brought to the screen. In that case, what’s not to love?

With those facts, it’s not surprising Season One became one of the most watched series on Netflix ever, with 918 million minutes in viewership, trailing only Bridgerton. As season two lands, Abigail talks about acting legend Miranda Richardson joining the cast, some juicy plot twists, and after that season finale cliffhanger, her hopes for season three.

Abigail also tells me about overcoming bullies and how she was made to feel different for having red hair, and she shares some advice she has learned from therapy.

If you have missed any of the episodes of Reign Season Six go check them out now - we’ve been joined by Stranger Things star, Natalia Dyer and iCarly’s Miranda Cosgrove ICYMI - and come back next Tuesday when we will be joined by another queen, Emmy nominee, Kaitlyn Dever. I hope you keep on listening and finding the power to Reign in your own lives. If you love this episode, please get in touch (follow me across social media @joshsmithhosts), I love hearing from you. Love, Josh xxx
