How To Be 60 with Kaye Adams

Sarah Vine on Divorce, Disappearing — and Writing Herself Back In


Listen Later

On this week’s episode, we’re joined by Sarah Vine, who opens up about the slow unraveling of her marriage to Michael Gove, the fallout from politics, and the childhood wounds that made it hard to ever say, “What about me?”


It’s never just about divorce — it’s about disappearing, dimming yourself, and trying to be good enough for people who never really saw you. But at 58, Sarah’s finally drawing a line. In this conversation, she shares how writing her memoir helped her process the damage, break the cycle for her kids, and quietly start again — on her own terms.

Whether you’ve stayed too long, stayed too quiet, or just want to feel seen again, this one wll land with you.


Sarah's book "How Not To Be A Political Wife" is out now.
