In the final episode of Home Truths Series 2, Nav throws Alex a bridal shower for one — prosecco, tiara, maid-of-honour-for-the-day energy — and interrogates her on everything wedding. The Croatia venue that flopped. The dress that'll take a year to make. The New York proposal she absolutely didn't see coming. And the football match Casey almost skipped a venue viewing for.
The whole crew's in on it too. They've built a bingo card of things Alex is guaranteed to say during the episode — and you can play along at home.
– The New York proposal: Bethesda Fountain, Gossip Girl, and Elvis Presley showing up out of nowhere
– Wedding stress: venues, dresses, seating plans and 60-strong Indian family guest lists
– The Mr & Mrs quiz Nav ambushed her with (Casey's answers were on record)
– Genetic testing, SMA awareness, and why weddings suddenly feel very real
– Girl or boy? Toxic intrusive thoughts and Indian cultural expectations
– Alex's advice for anyone getting married — and for anyone going to a wedding
– Fad or Fab: the wedding trends worth your time and the ones to bin
Plus a Home Truth about the day Casey chose Liverpool over a Cotswolds venue viewing. True or false? Stick around for the reveal.
