Listen Later

In this episode of The Netmums Podcast, Wendy and Alison chat with Oritse Williams from JLS about his wild ride into fatherhood. Oritse spills the beans on the highs of baby Shiva and the lows of sleepless nights and nappy disasters.

He gets real about the tough times, including the heartbreak of two miscarriages, and how keeping his wife’s pregnancy under wraps was a protective move for their mental health.

Oritse also dives into the tricky topic of dads showing their feelings, sharing how it’s helped his bond with his wife and how society can make it tough for blokes to talk about their emotions.
