Fitzy, Wippa & Kate

A woman in the UK has nearly died after travelling to Turkey for breast implants, only to find out that her surgery and blood tests got mixed up with another patient and was given a BBL.

We’d make a Lord Of The Rings pun but none of us have seen it.

As a special surprise for Fitzy, we got BJ to join us live to read a hot and heavy excerpt of Wippa’s The Far Too Personal Trainer.

Our work group chat is currently called ‘Tongue In Freak’ - which to be honest, as a member of this team I don’t understand why we called it that, apart from the fact that Wippa’s tongue is insane. Anyway, we want to call it something else and have been inspired by these hilarious group chat names that have gone viral. From a group of sisters who lost one of their other siblings calling theirs, ‘The Survivors’ to a family of kids all with different Dad’s calling theirs ‘Who’s Your Daddy?’, surely we can do better.

As three Swifties, we heart our new Dad Travis Kelce. We’ve fallen head over heels for him ever since he appeared on the scene on Taylor’s arm, but we have some reservations about his tell all interview done with The Wall Street Journal yesterday...
