1
good morning everybody it feels like such a long time since i've turned on my camera
2
and actually as an fyi this is an entirely new camera
3
because did we say this already in vloggust i don't know
4
if we did but on the day of otty's party alfie accidentally broke my vlogging camera
5
so we were then using alfie's camera to finish vloggust uh we took
6
that away on holiday
7
and alfie took it in the sea with this waterproof casing
8
on it was it waterproof on this occasion no it wasn't
9
so that was another g7x down the pan um
10
so i feel like between alfie and i we have got through
11
so many canon g7x's and i've just ordered a new one in order to sit down
12
and bring you this vlog in this little bit of time i have between coming back from one holiday
13
and then going on another which is like the most unzoey sentence ever so i
14
so i'd always plan to make this video as a kind
15
of holiday update pregnancy update moving into autumn just having a
16
bit of a catch -up really i wanted to sit down
17
and just get ready with you
18
and make this like a one -off video was not expecting
19
to also be updating you on this i will get into this in the video
20
that happened on holiday um
21
if you don't follow me on Instagram I am now an
22
engaged woman I can like chat you through a bit of that
23
but yeah I just thought it'd be nice to do something
24
a little different um don't have too much time today as
25
I said we've got like two days three days in between coming back from one holiday
26
and then Alfie
27
and I are going away again together just the two of
28
us I want to be able to like sit down
29
and fill you guys in on this little bit of the day
30
that I've got um so that's what I'm gonna do
31
if you haven't already grab yourself a drink grab yourself a little snack get cozy
32
or we can just get ready together let's do
33
that depends what time of day you're watching this i suppose we've come back from holiday
34
and i feel like we've come back to autumn like it's
35
blustery there's leaves everywhere i can see the leaves are changing
36
color it's kind of cozy it's like really rainy out today
37
it's actually kind of dark like i'm literally having to turn all the lights on
38
and open all the blinds fully so
39
that you can actually see what I'm doing to my face um
40
which does feel quite nice however we are now going on holiday again
41
so I need to like get back into like the being in the sun mindset before we get back
42
and then I think I'm just gonna go like full autumn
43
so I feel like I'm kind of holding back a little
44
bit um I'm just gonna wait for this little like mini vacay with me
45
and Alfie and then I think I'm just gonna go full on autumn
46
haven't even unpacked my holiday makeup bag because i'm just going to be taking it again
47
uh when we go tomorrow so i have nothing on my face yet
48
but i have just washed it and toned it ready for my serum
49
and my moisturizer now this is actually a new product i'm
50
very excited to chat to you about i took it away
51
on holiday with me i've been trialing it for a couple
52
of weeks before its launch on the 26th of september
53
and i think you guys are gonna really love it
54
because i am enjoying using it a lot it is this from drunk elephant it's the be goldie bright drops
55
and i mean you guys know how much i love the
56
de bronzy drops i took both of these away on holiday these are basically just my holiday essentials
57
so it is a serum um that i have been mixing in with my moisturizer
58
but it just gives your skin this beautiful luminous glow it feels like the perfect base for your makeup
59
or to start your day or even
60
if you're having a bit of a no makeup day it just makes you look a little bit more alive
61
which i need right now
62
because my energy levels are on the floor the reason i think i love this
63
so much is because it has one of my favorite skincare ingredients ever
64
which is niacinamide it has five percent niacinamide
65
which is known to help reduce any kind of spot marks
66
or discoloration it's basically the best ingredient for you
67
if you want to get a little bit more of an even skin tone or complexion.
68
So it's absolutely perfect for me in that sense.
69
I would say niacinamide is definitely something that I actively look for
70
and make sure I have somewhere in my skincare routine at all times because I just notice it makes the biggest difference.
71
I'm not one of these people that is blessed with perfect skin, never have been.
72
So anytime that I get a spot or a blemish,
73
which is fairly often, I always find the mark it leaves just just takes a lot longer than people
74
that I know so that is why niacinamide is amazing for me
75
because it's the skincare ingredient that I notice makes the most difference to my skin
76
so I'm going to pop a little bit of this on with my Drunk Elephant La La Retro whipped cream
77
and show you what it looks like before I get started on my makeup
78
squeeze a little bit in there with
79
that i need to clip my hair out the way do i have my clips yes i do there's one
80
so as you can see it just makes my skin look just more glowy and healthy
81
and also i love that you can use it on any other different parts of your body
82
so if you want your legs to have a little bit of a sheen
83
or your arms or like your collarbone or anywhere you want to put it
84
so as i mentioned the drunk elephant be goldie bright drops will be launching on the 26th of september
85
so keep your eyes peeled for that i feel like
86
if you are a big fan of the d bronzy you're gonna love these first things first holiday it was
87
so lovely to be away to be somewhere
88
that we had to get to on an airplane
89
because i haven't done that in so long
90
and it was also just really nice to experience a holiday with otty at the age
91
that she's at i just i freaking love this age
92
so much i just feel like you get so much back
93
and it's so fun and their little personalities are coming out
94
and like her little personality really shone
95
and she had a good time she loved the plane i made her these little like plane packs
96
so i popped things like stickers
97
and made her a little pencil case with um with some of the color wonder um felt tips
98
and coloring in pages for any of you with toddlers those are amazing
99
because they have no colour in the felt tip pens but
100
when you put them on the paper the colour comes out
101
which is perfect for an aeroplane when you're not too sure
102
if your child is going to like draw all over the table she didn't
103
but still I have to say I think stickers went down the best stickers
104
and we loaded up her little amazon fire with some of her favorite tv shows um
105
so we had like paddington bear and obviously the film matilda
106
which she's obsessed with she actually loved it she loved it
107
far more than i did i was actually fine anxiety wise
108
we got there guys we got there it had its hairy moments
109
and I definitely didn't find it easy but it was
110
so totally worth it um and I'm doing it all again tomorrow
111
so that's probably a good thing um
112
but I'm not leaving like a big gap between doing it again
113
but yeah it was just the most amazing time away and I just felt very grateful and lucky and
114
oh fire alarm's going off albie's currently cooking lunch just needed
115
to check there was no actual fire there isn't they're all
116
good um yeah just it was just a lovely amazing time away
117
and it was very much needed and we all had a really lovely time
118
but yeah it was lovely to be back in mykonos ate
119
some lovely food played in the pool it was quite windy
120
for like the first half of the week um Mykonos is always kind of windy
121
which we were quite prepared for but this was like 40 mile an hour winds
122
so there was a lot of like games and like things
123
that we did inside for a bit
124
because like sitting outside was just like you're gonna get swept away
125
but it was all part of the fun it was a glorious holiday I don't even really know
126
if I got the sun
127
that much you know I didn't really sit out too much um yeah as I said Alfie
128
and I are now off on a I'm gonna call it
129
a baby moon with Otty I feel like we were still in kind of pandemic times
130
so I don't think did we go anywhere in the UK maybe I actually can't remember um
131
but we were planning to go to the Maldives in March 2020
132
and then that just never happened obviously
133
so we really wanted to book another holiday just the two of us get away we can appreciate
134
that it's going to be much harder to do
135
that once we have two and once the new baby is like much younger
136
so we were just like let's just do it
137
and the only time that we could do it was like now
138
so that is why this feels very back to back
139
but i'm really excited we are going to rhodes
140
so back to greece we go and we are staying at a hotel called kasakuk
141
which is a place that poppy and sean have been to a couple of times
142
and then alfie's parents also went in the summer
143
and they just look like they had the best time it's
144
one of those places where you don't really leave the hotel
145
you kind of go down for breakfast you sit by the
146
pool you read books like i'm not really an adventure holiday kind of gal right now anyway um
147
so it just felt like the perfect thing for us to
148
do it's gonna be very very nice i pressed a few buttons i hope you can still hear me
149
and see me it was just looking very blue uh this
150
weather is just not the one oh my god i opened my app the other day guys
151
and it said third trimester and i was like sorry what since when since
152
when am i now in my third trimester does this feel like it's going quickly for anyone else
153
because it really feels like it's going very quickly for me
154
and there's a lot of things
155
that i need to do oh god i just had to nip downstairs
156
and i've had half a hot dog so um in between
157
that i may now have some hot dog
158
or something in my teeth how am i feeling i feel
159
like i need to like go through some other questions
160
that i would answer through vloggers just to give like a proper little update mostly just
161
so that i can look back on it
162
but also for any of you that might be interested
163
or you've just gone into the third trimester yourself i am
164
almost no in fact i'm 28 weeks pregnant today as i'm
165
filming this i'm 28 weeks pregnant i think by the time this goes up i'll be like 30 29
166
and a bit 30 oh my god that's like crazy
167
so the baby is around 2 .7 pounds and around 37 .9 centimeters
168
and i can definitely definitely feel
169
that she is like she is in there she is getting more
170
and more compact we actually had an appointment yesterday all went
171
well i had to do a blood test i think it's like the 28 week blood test blood test
172
that you have to do i don't actually know so i did
173
that yesterday and uh got to see her again
174
which was really really nice i feel like the countdown is
175
on your baby's heartbeat has slowed down to around 140
176
and will slow further to 130 your baby's brain is now in charge of maintaining body temperature
177
and also controlled breathing all the internal organs are maturing
178
and preparing to function on their own at birth your baby's
179
skin is beginning to look less wrinkly the extra fat under
180
the skin will help your baby to regulate their body temperature at birth your baby is bursting with energy
181
and you'll be feeling every bit of it don't i know it um i'm trying to work out
182
if i feel like she's more active
183
or less active than otty at this point i feel like otty was slightly more active
184
but i think that's
185
because i wasn't distracted like i wasn't as distracted um with
186
otty i felt i like i don't know i was very
187
zoned in on like pregnancy um whereas this time i just feel like having otty
188
and like there's just
189
so much going on i'm just i i think she's moving a lot more
190
but i'm not like as aware of it um she definitely moves a lot more through the night
191
which i don't remember otty doing as much i feel like she only ever really moved a lot before bed
192
and when i woke up in the morning
193
but i don't remember ever feeling her move like through the night whereas i feel like i'm waking up
194
and she's like already awake your baby is as big as
195
a pair of kids jelly shoes uh okay your baby is as big as a cabbage okay for some reason that seems
196
that seems big well we've moved into the next bracket 25
197
to 28 weeks is a small a small penguin bloody hell
198
sweets a chocolate cake apt like the amount of cake i've eaten in the last month
199
because of all the birthdays we've had we're now coming into like less birthdays
200
and let me tell you i'm really excited about it i there's just
201
so many birthdays in our family over this month the amount
202
of cake i have eaten i'm not even doing my makeup
203
at this point now i'm just chatting to you the amount of cake i've eaten
204
and i love cake
205
but i'm like i just don't want to see another piece
206
of cake for a really long time this is saying 25
207
to 28 weeks a papaya what's the next bracket okay
208
so as you're watching this I will be in the next bracket which is a winter squash
209
a chocolate box
210
and a piglet oh my gosh that's yeah that's crazy how
211
am i feeling pregnancy wise um i think mostly just still
212
it's the pregnant energy it's the lack of energy it's the
213
lack of breath it's the like heavy limbs it's the wanting to do things and my physical body just not
214
being able to do it at the speed i want to do it
215
or do it at all i've definitely found
216
that more frustrating in this pregnancy than i did in my first pregnancy i think just
217
because a lot of my first pregnancy was like in lockdown um i think i took it much easier
218
and i did not have a toddler to look after
219
so it's very different this time and the lack of energy
220
that my body has like my physical energy not even like mental
221
or like tiredness just the physical energy of my body is really starting to frustrate me
222
and i know it's only gonna get worse there's like
223
that lovely little golden bit which thankfully was vloggist even though
224
that definitely had some very up and down days and up
225
and down bouts of energy as
226
that month went i definitely had it was like it was a good time in terms of like pregnancy
227
and energy which i kind of knew it would be
228
because the second trimester generally for most people is where you
229
feel like relatively normal now i've moved into my third trimester
230
and everything's getting a bit bigger and heavier i am definitely much slower
231
and i am struggling with the guilt slash frustration of
232
that um even though there's really not a lot i can
233
do about it um it just it is what it is
234
it's being pregnant just yeah it just really frustrates me
235
because my brain wants something else and my body's like no girl you can't do
236
that and if you can it's gonna take you five times as long
237
so good luck with that i would say that that's probably the thing
238
that is the most difficult and i struggled with
239
that quite a lot on holiday just like not feeling like
240
i could fully be as involved in a lot of the
241
things um i did go in the pool on one of the days
242
when it got like kind of warm i don't know like even getting up
243
and down off the sun lounger i was like okay you ready and i just i can't wait to not
244
have that aspect of pregnancy i just want to have the energy
245
and be able to like lift otty a little more
246
and like run around a bit more
247
and i just i just physically cannot um
248
but it's fine it is what it is do i have
249
any new cravings no at this point not really not at
250
all um it's mostly just like food i'm definitely feeling more
251
full i should probably be doing my makeup at the same
252
time as this shouldn't i like how have i just like forgotten
253
that that's what i'm supposed to be doing right now is
254
getting ready i'm still on the woodwink type by the way guys
255
so any new symptoms quite a few rib pain has started uh that kind of like horrible stretchy uncomfortable
256
feeling
257
that you get with your ribs um it's not been as
258
bad as with otty i have to say um they haven't felt fizzy
259
which is how i described them when i was pregnant with otty i think possibly
260
because my rib cage expanded with otty
261
and it never fully went back like it definitely stayed slightly different slightly like wider after i'd had otty
262
but it's like more the uncomfortableness here like
263
if i touch my ribs they're tender like all the time
264
so that is kind of uncomfortable like if i'm sat in a car
265
or on the airplane the flight was like four hours long i want to say
266
and that's just quite a uncomfortable amount amount of time to be sat
267
and i kind of want to like almost like stretch my ribs up
268
and like give myself a bit more space I don't know
269
if it's because I have maybe a shorter torso
270
or I don't know but or
271
if I just seem to carry my babies really high
272
but they really do like to nestle under my rib cage
273
and I've had a couple of little kicks up into my ribs a few times
274
and I can tell you now that is not a feeling
275
that I missed um in my pregnancy with otty because
276
that is like oh my god my acid reflux has been pretty bad like my heartburn
277
and acid reflux probably similar to otty i would say i
278
think that's really it there's nothing else i've noticed just itchy
279
itchy around the boobs around the tummy there's a lot of stretch happening um
280
and i'm having to really try and remind myself to
281
moisturize and like ease that like itching because it's like so intense apart from that
282
apart from that we are on the home straight guys
283
and i know what you're thinking
284
and you're probably thinking do you guys have a name now
285
tell me you have a name we don't we still haven't decided on a name it's one of the things
286
that we've told each other we're gonna really think about
287
when we go away there is one name i quite like
288
but i don't know for sure i i feel like the
289
pressure of naming a second is almost more than naming a
290
first with otty it's like i knew i loved the name ottilie
291
so i was like well i love that name
292
and i want to use it with this one it's like we used the girl name we really loved
293
and don't get me wrong there are lots of beautiful girl names it's just finding one
294
that I feel like gives me that same feeling
295
but I don't know if I'm looking for a feeling
296
that maybe might not come like maybe that's just not a
297
thing with second kids maybe it's more just yeah I like this name
298
and I think this would be great we shall see
299
but yeah as I said there is one I really like
300
it has really cute nicknames it's in a similar vein to otterley it's quite pretty it's quite feminine it's not
301
that common um i haven't really heard it
302
that much i think it could be a top contender
303
but i just like i don't know i'm looking for
304
that moment of this is what our baby's gonna be called
305
but as i said maybe
306
that moment just doesn't happen all the time um please let me know
307
if you found that please let me know
308
that i'm not the only one you might also be wondering what progress have you made on the nursery
309
and moving otty into her own room
310
and i will tell you now zero zero progress on that front
311
and it's stressing me out a little bit i'm not gonna
312
lie to you um i feel like it's gonna be project bedrooms
313
when we get back off holiday we'll just see what we get done it'll be fine i am done
314
and just go over the makeup
315
that i used in case you want to know even though it's me we're talking about
316
and i don't mix things up
317
that much i used the collection lasting perfection concealers in both ivory
318
and cashew then i used my bare minerals powder on top
319
in the shade fairly light 03 then i went on top of
320
that with the bare minerals warmth bronzer then i used from my nars palette um this pink uh blusher
321
which is liberty and then the highlighter which is breathless what did i do next my eyebrows
322
as always using the anastasia dip brow pomade in the shade dark brown
323
and also used the milk makeup kush brow lamination then i
324
used the old wood winked eye shadow for mascara i used my trusty um hourglass unlocked
325
and then for lips i'm still using my old crusty tarte lip paint in exposed
326
that i don't know how it still has anything left in it at this point
327
but I love it I feel like I need to call Alfie up here so that we can chat you through
328
how this happened um
329
because I feel like that's what you're all waiting for let's be honest he's just coming upstairs
330
but I did just remember I haven't done a bump update
331
so I'm gonna do a bump update I actually have my tummy out right now
332
because my leggings felt really tight but I'm gonna pull them up oh okay bump update 28 weeks look at that bump
333
oh my goodness she is bumping don't you think look how
334
high up look there's my bra this is where my bump
335
starts like under my like literally off of my bra there
336
is no room there is no room at the inn it's so tight
337
and i've still got like how many weeks to go like 12 weeks to go 11 weeks to go
338
and i also have noticed
339
that her feet are now um really kicking out to this side
340
which i actually find quite fun like it's quite fun to play like games with her
341
and like push her feet back in
342
and then she pushes them back out um
343
but yeah that's my bump that's my 28 week bump come
344
and sit down fiance that's so sad
345
because i was going to say the same thing how were you hi fiance your fiance is here
346
is here as you guys know alfie and i've been together
347
how long nearly 11 years nearly 11 years 11 actually thinking about
348
that we're guaranteed to forget our anniversary again is it the fourth of
349
so really soon it's the fourth
350
or the fifth of october the fourth of october we will have been together for 11 years
351
and we've always as you know
352
so frustratingly for
353
so many of you we've been very very relaxed about this
354
aspect of our life it's probably one of the things we
355
get asked the most oh for sure probably the most asked
356
question over the last 10 years really important to a lot of people
357
and just not like it's important
358
that it happens at some point in our lives yeah we knew it was gonna happen
359
but like some people are like
360
if i waited over two three years for my boyfriend didn't propose yet do you know it's just isn't
361
that for us
362
but also i just think marriage is very relaxed in our
363
family like i have divorced parents your parents only got married
364
like 17 years did they get married like 15 years ago
365
or something maybe even less maybe like 12 it was just
366
before you met me they got married i feel like um
367
so it's always a very casual thing but also alfie
368
and i from very early on in our relationship we did
369
so much cool amazing stuff
370
that we were big opportunities big life events yeah we did
371
i think quite young for you especially i mean i'm a bit older than you
372
but no definitely and we have obviously we've said this a million times before
373
so you probably already know the backstory but for anyone
374
that might stumble on this and be like sorry what you've been together nearly 11 years
375
and this has only just happened do you know how many comments
376
that i got
377
that were like i thought they were already married like what
378
do you mean you're not married wait hold up a second
379
but they just assumed i think because we've got otty
380
and obviously number two on the way that people just assume
381
that we are yeah that's true i had no expectation of
382
when this might happen i knew it would at some point
383
but i there was never any kind of conversation around like i don't know this year
384
or when or it was kind of just left in your
385
left in your hands the most asked question at the moment
386
that i'm getting dm'd is why now right right and it wasn't
387
that like oh six months ago Zoe did something
388
and I was like I know she's the one do you
389
know what I mean it wasn't like nothing has happened
390
that is like now is the time I've been waiting for
391
this moment the moment has happened now I'm going to propose
392
do you know what I mean like there wasn't like no
393
once we've been together 10 years then I'm going to do it once we've been together 11 like it wasn't
394
that as we said like we're just super relaxed
395
so for me it was more just like like we said
396
trying to like keep it as something as long as like
397
possible so that we've still got something to look forward to
398
and enjoy because we've been very fortunate to tick off
399
so many amazing things in life yeah um
400
but equally do want to do it do want to get married
401
and just have the right moment to get engaged as opposed to like i now know
402
that i want to get engaged you know what i mean like i don't i was explaining it to sean
403
because he was like why did you do it on this holiday
404
and i was like it's not
405
that i wouldn't have done it two years ago it's not
406
that i would be fussed
407
if i did it in two years more like time like
408
in two years in the future it doesn't matter as to like how many years we've been together or anything
409
because i mean for me like having having children having children
410
is more like a commitment for me personally than being married
411
and it just felt like I always thought well I always knew like we'd always discuss
412
when we had discussed things
413
that like we wanted people to be around to be excited
414
with on the day the evening of the week of
415
but then equally have that moment just for Zoe and I
416
and I was like the holiday is the perfect moment
417
because it was 10 years since we were in Mykonos for the first time together
418
that was like a really nice holiday
419
that was such a lovely holiday i was like that's really nice
420
and fitting that it was like 10 years on since
421
that moment that we had together in mykonos
422
that was our first holiday in mykonos too yeah okay yeah the first ever like proper holiday together
423
and then also i love the fact
424
that like both the children were going to be there kind of thing like kind of yeah um
425
and i was like i'm going to be able to carve out time on
426
that trip where it's just zoe and i which is how it happened
427
but then equally everybody else be around in some capacity to like enjoy it with yeah excited with
428
and i'm glad we did that because that was actually
429
so nice because like we're going away tomorrow but
430
if i did it just then i feel like we'd both be really excited
431
and then not this bad thing
432
but it'd just be just us two yeah whereas like it
433
was nice being able to be excited with like my family
434
and stuff yeah
435
that was really really lovely it was just like the perfect like there was nothing about out! any of it
436
that i would have ever changed like it was
437
so it was just such a perfect moment god you know the pressure just even like picking a ring
438
and does i mean i worked i worked over the last couple of months with like a local jeweler is
439
that my word jeweler yeah jewelry maker yeah she's like a local woman designer
440
and maker she makes some really beautiful pieces i've been working
441
with her like secretly meeting up with her whatsapping her a
442
bunch like secretly zero emailing under other email addresses to like keep everything hidden um
443
so tough but also you're so good at
444
that stuff like alfie is like incredible like i everyone would always say to me like oh what happens
445
if alfie gets you a ring that you don't like
446
or like what happens if he does this this
447
and this i'm like he won't we've been together
448
so long he can't get these things wrong it's one it's alfie you just never get anything wrong
449
and two you know me sometimes more than i know myself
450
if that makes sense um in fact what's
451
so strange is literally like a week before we went away me
452
and jay and alfie my friend jay was over we were having a conversation about like
453
and the ring had already obviously been made at that time
454
and we were talking about rings
455
and he was like shape diamonds everything what would you want
456
and i was like i would just want whatever alfie gave
457
me like i'm i'm not like mad fussy i wouldn't say about it there's definitely certain styles
458
that over the years i've been like wow that's an amazing ring like
459
that would be like so lovely um
460
but i definitely just wanted something kind of simple really there's definitely more choices than what i thought like
461
when i was like i fully customized the ring
462
and built it all like from scratch kind of thing with
463
rosie who i've created it with actually at one point i was gonna
464
but i was like otty's just too old now i would
465
i really wanted to get a photo of otty helping make the ring like with her hands yeah
466
and i was like i want to get her into the like into the jewelry studio
467
and like making the piece but i know
468
that like she talks way too much now i know she'd
469
be like making a ring with daddy today oh like daddy's ring and i'll be like what do you mean
470
what don't say that so true
471
so i was like she's too old now like i just missed
472
that to have her like help physically make it yeah um
473
but yeah there's so many choices in the ring i put quite a few extra like little details
474
and things into the ring that you can't show you
475
because i feel like you're all just gonna want to see it right now so there is the ring guys
476
it is beyond beautiful like i can't it's it's been like over a week
477
and i'm still i still just stare at it every day
478
and i'm like oh my god
479
so i put 10 diamonds like on a dropped halo around it
480
and i dropped it as much as possible around the outside just to like signify the 10 years
481
that we've been together so far how cute
482
and then on the inside of the ring there's no way you're going to be able to see this
483
but on the inside on the band underneath the diamond on
484
the band on the inside i got put in otty's birthstone and our second baby's birthstone as well it's so cute
485
i just do you know how scary it was traveling with
486
it as well i know i was gonna say alfie's like mr paranoid
487
so the first thing i said tim was like how how did you manage to get
488
that like here yeah like through customs i was like i was like
489
if customs just like oh one minute can we search your
490
bag a sec we just saw something in the bottom of your bag
491
or like i was like can't obviously put it in the main luggage
492
but i've got to keep it on me but then
493
if zoe's like oh alfie let me grab your phone charger possibly your bag
494
and i'm like no you can't have my bag you're like
495
what do you mean why can't i go through your bag we're so open with everything that
496
that yeah it was hard and the actual moment the relief the relief
497
and the actual moment was so chilled it was
498
so lovely alfie's family were at the beach um
499
and alfie was the one with the car
500
so he was kind of like okay now's my moment
501
because we were in charge and then zoe and i came back
502
and i was like i'll pick you guys up up in a bit
503
so i was like they can't get back from the beach without me picking them up
504
so now it's go time because they can't come back
505
and otty was having her nap and it was like me
506
and alfie were like oh this is so nice like we were by the pool
507
on the sun lounger um and it was just like a really lovely moment i think i swore at you
508
opened it you literally you opened it
509
because i didn't open i didn't even think about opening it i was just like hell yeah i checked
510
so many times on the holiday day it was still there
511
and then zoe opened it
512
and was like closed it again straight away i want to
513
like i want to like relive it yeah it would be
514
cool to be on the other side of it i think
515
that about how like what no mine's just straight stress really
516
well you didn't enjoy it at all no i enjoyed it of course one moment no i enjoyed it
517
but i'm like carrying it holding it like
518
i don't know we'd go out for dinner in town i'm like i can't leave it in the villa
519
that we booked
520
so i'm just like walking around making us with like bringing
521
my bag afi kept being like i'm gonna take my backpack
522
i'm like you don't really need to take your backpack
523
and even that i didn't find weird i was like okay
524
if you want to i remember i went for a wee
525
in the restaurant we went out for dinner went for a wee
526
and i was like oh it's in the bag is in
527
between my legs with it in at the table yeah i
528
was like then no one can steer there i didn't even notice
529
that you're being way more protective of your bag no
530
but then i was like i need a wee i'm not leaving my bag here
531
because if my bag gets stolen you guys like obviously you're going to care
532
because it's my bag but it's not the end of the world
533
but my bag can't get stolen
534
so i was like i need to take my bag to the toilet with me
535
but then not have you guys all be like am i
536
taking your rucksack for a wee had you already proposed to me
537
when we were talking about like oh you don't want we don't want to get broken into
538
and i was like alf there's nothing like send there's nothing no i hadn't proposed yet
539
and i was no but i hid it
540
so well in the apartment in the villa
541
that nobody people working there wouldn't have found it i also
542
feel like a lot of people would want to know
543
if anyone else knew oh nobody knew no and i nobody like literally
544
that would be the way the only one person who knew
545
was our accountant who just made the payment for me because i was like
546
i don't want to be i don't have any email traces
547
or anything with me trying to do payments or via the app
548
or anything so can you just make the payment for my bank account for me that was it
549
i always knew alfie wouldn't tell anyone poppy over the years
550
poppy was like no no he would he would tell me
551
he would definitely tell me he would definitely want my involvement
552
i nearly got poppy's involvement with the ring did you
553
so i called in like so many different diamonds to look at
554
and compare the clarity and the color and the size
555
and the um the how low the profile was
556
and all of the different ratios
557
and everything all your cameras about to oh gosh we've been talking a
558
while right guys memory card was full
559
because we are clearly talking way too much i can't even
560
remember what i was gonna say uh you looked at a
561
couple of different diamonds calling in like different diamonds to compare everything
562
and there was two in particular this one and another one
563
that i was so torn between
564
and i literally i said to rosie who worked on the
565
ring with i was like should i call my sister to get her opinion on it
566
and get her to come down this evening
567
but i don't want her to know so i'm so glad you didn't i really don't want her to know
568
but it's so hard to pick something
569
and again like obviously not customizing a ring whatever kind of
570
ring you buy for somebody number one finding out their ring size without them knowing that's
571
so hard so i had to steal one of zoe's rings
572
that she's worn on that finger in a photo i found
573
and then take
574
that with me to compare the size to be able to get it made the same size it's
575
so hard to buy a piece of jewelry for somebody that's such a different size to you
576
that like if i put
577
that ring near my finger it just doesn't look the same
578
like it's completely different i'm really glad you didn't tell anybody
579
because poppy's reaction was probably my favorite yeah that was
580
so good it was just so yeah i just loved it it was
581
so nice and it's funny because it's like you don't feel any different
582
but there's like a it almost feels a little bit more
583
magical i can't explain it you know what i mean like did you feel any different
584
or were you just like thank god i don't have to carry
585
that around with me wait do you mean how was it like today no as in like now
586
that we're engaged like do you feel different no no
587
no no no i do you know what i feel like
588
i don't feel like anything has changed except there's like a
589
little dusting of like magic oh it's like like a little
590
layer of excitement yeah yeah it's like a little bubble of like oh this is exciting
591
but as in in terms of like us
592
and our relationship in terms of like commitment and all of that i feel exactly the same because that's always
593
being as it is but i definitely agree with you like a little bit of excitement but also it's
594
it's going to be nice finally to be able to go somewhere
595
or talk to somebody on the phone and be like oh my fiance
596
because i just feel like especially with having otty saying girlfriend just doesn't feel fitting yeah
597
and then like partner doesn't feel like the right term either whereas like fiance just seems more like
598
i feel yeah that feels feels more for anyone
599
that is thinking oh my god i can't wait for wedding
600
content i can't wait when's the wedding is it next year have you already found a venue
601
guys it took us this long to get engaged please don't expect a quick wedding
602
we do not want a quick wedding we've got number two on the way
603
and we've always said we want our kids at our wedding um
604
so like we have a time frame in mind at the minute
605
but we are in no rush it's a
606
while away we want to enjoy we've got we're going to have two kids that our next chapter is
607
another baby and life with two kids
608
and then we want to really enjoy the um process of
609
planning for a wedding once that's kind of like settled for me
610
because i like because i've been thinking about it for one obviously creating the ring
611
and stuff it doesn't feel like new news do you know what i mean yeah like i got my dm's
612
and so like we just received a second ago a bottle of champagne from a couple of people
613
that we know just saying congratulations and i'm like oh it's still for
614
that like it doesn't feel like new news to me
615
because obviously i've been thinking of it and so aware of it for
616
so long now it feels like it happened ages ago yeah
617
it didn't it was just the process started ages ago
618
but it is weird seeing it on your hand like it does feel
619
if i like catch it like with my eye it does
620
i'm now left -handed i do everything with my left hand no none of our friends
621
or anything i've seen none of our friends
622
or anything family have family have seen it yeah everyone's like
623
desperate for the story like everyone's keep messaging me like can't wait
624
but there's not there's not like a big grand no yeah
625
i feel like it could have gone two ways either really relaxed
626
and chilled which it did and it was like i'm
627
so happy that that's what you did though
628
because i feel like i could have gone really over the top
629
and i feel like you wouldn't have wanted that
630
if i'd planned all like some band waiting at the end of a band stand
631
and then this happened and some fireworks and i'm down
632
and what like that's just not us no it's not at
633
all no it's not i for me it's happy moment it's like the simplicity of a happy moment just being
634
that do you know what i mean it's like i love the way
635
that you did that and that's
636
that was like my perfect proposal honestly i did really forget
637
to ask the question oh yeah i was like are you
638
going to ask me i said like a little a little spiel
639
and then got the ring out
640
and then as i was like looking at the ring
641
and open the clothes
642
and then she was like got it out went to go put it on
643
and was like oh wait you need to ask me i was like oh yeah i haven't actually asked you
644
and you put it on my finger um there was also
645
for anyone that's like oh at what point did you know
646
he was like proposing genuinely 0 .1 second before alfie got the ring out of his pocket
647
i could hear
648
because i was laying on his arm not even on my
649
chest on my arm not even honest i was laying on his arm like this on the sun lounger
650
and i all of a sudden his heart it sounded like
651
it was gonna like explode out of your chest i've never
652
heard anything like it like this is alfie days he's cool calm
653
and collected at all times and i was like what the hell
654
and then he pulled the ring out of his pocket
655
and i was like that's so funny
656
that i was like what's happened like your heart's gone wild
657
and then you were like oh i'm glad it wasn't like
658
that for like 10 minutes beforehand no it wasn't you seemed
659
so chilled it was getting me ice pops i was chatting
660
away like i didn't shut up alfie's like come on
661
so i like voice note one of her friends for like
662
10 minutes i was like yo otty's gonna wake up in a minute
663
and then my sister facetimed like yo could you pick us up from the beach in a minute
664
and i was like maybe like half an hour she's like oh can we do like 20 minutes
665
so i was like i've got something important i need to do
666

667

Warum man mit diesem Video sprechen übt?
Dieses Video ist perfekt fürs Englisch lernen mit Videos – es bietet eine natürliche, alltägliche Gesprächssituation, in der die Sprecherin über private Ereignisse, Reisen und Alltagsprobleme (wie kaputte Kameras!) spricht. Solche Kontexte trainieren nicht nur das Verstehen von gesprochenem Englisch, sondern auch das Nachahmen von Tonfall und Rhythmus – ideal für shadowspeaks oder Englisch Shadowing. Du lernst, wie man locker und unverkrampft über verschiedene Themen spricht, was dir Selbstvertrauen im Alltagsgespräch gibt.
Grammatik & Ausdrücke im Kontext
- "it feels like such a long time since...": Diese Struktur hilft, Zeitverläufe zu beschreiben. Übe es mit Sätzen wie: "It feels like ages since we last met."
- "was not expecting to also be updating you...": Die Kombination von "was not expecting" und "to be updating" zeigt, wie man über unvorhergesehene Handlungen spricht. Perfekt für Überraschungen! Beispiel: "I wasn't expecting to find such a nice café here."
- "between coming back from one holiday and then going on another": "Between... and..." ist super nützlich, um Zeiträume oder Aktivitäten zu verbinden. Probier es: "I'm busy between finishing work and starting my new project."
Häufige Aussprachefallen
Einige Wörter in der Sprache können tricky sein. Zum Beispiel: "waterproof casing" – Achte darauf, das "w" in "waterproof" weich zu sagen (nicht wie im Deutschen "v"). "blustery" (stürmisch) hat eine "uh"-Lautung in der Mitte, die man nicht zu hart aussprechen sollte. Bei "unzoey sentence" (eine untypische Satz für Zoey) ist der Tonfall wichtig – es klingt ironisch, also lass dein Voice etwas aufsteigen. Übe diese Wörter mit shadow speak: Höre die Sätze mehrmals nach, und sprich sie sofort nach, um die Aussprache zu trainieren.
Mit solchen Videos und Methoden wie Englisch Shadowing wird das Sprechen viel einfacher – probier es aus, und du wirst schnell Fortschritte sehen!
Grammatik in diesem Video
Die Strukturen, die der Sprecher am häufigsten verwendet, mit den genauen Worten aus dem Video:
| Struktur | Im Video |
|---|---|
| Present Perfect Continuous have/has been + -ing – eine Handlung, die früher begann und noch andauert | i've been trialing · have been mixing · I've been waiting |
| Present Perfect have/has + Partizip Perfekt – eine vergangene Handlung, die jetzt noch wichtig ist | i've turned · i've just ordered · we've come |
| Passiv be + Partizip Perfekt – wichtig ist, was geschieht, nicht wer es tut | is known · is blessed · wasn't distracted |
| Relativsätze who / which + Satz – eine Zusatzinformation über eine Person oder Sache | another which is · bracket which is · highlighter which is |
Was ist die Shadowing-Technik?
Shadowing ist eine wissenschaftlich fundierte Sprachlerntechnik, die ursprünglich für die professionelle Dolmetscherausbildung entwickelt und durch den Polyglotten Dr. Alexander Arguelles populär gemacht wurde. Die Methode ist einfach aber wirkungsvoll: Du hörst englisches Audio von Muttersprachlern und wiederholst es sofort laut — wie ein Schatten, der dem Sprecher mit nur 1–2 Sekunden Verzögerung folgt. Anders als passives Hören oder Grammatikübungen zwingt Shadowing dein Gehirn und deine Mundmuskulatur, gleichzeitig echte Sprachmuster zu verarbeiten und zu reproduzieren. Studien zeigen, dass es Aussprachegenauigkeit, Intonation, Rhythmus, verbundene Sprache, Hörverständnis und Sprechflüssigkeit signifikant verbessert — was es zu einer der effektivsten Methoden für die IELTS Speaking-Vorbereitung und reale englische Kommunikation macht.
