What happens when you find love again after losing your partner - and that second love story ends too?
Bereavement and divorce are widely cited as the two most stressful life events a person can go through – and Rosie Moss has lived both. Widowed suddenly in her thirties with three young children, Rosie found love again – and then walked through the breakdown of that second marriage. She joins Kate not to talk about how hard it's been, but about what's grown out of it.
Rosie is host of the award-winning podcast Widowed AF and author of the bestselling book Widowed As F**k. Together, Kate and Rosie explore love, loss, dating again and learning to like yourself through it all.
We talk about:
- Meeting someone through shared grief - and what happens when a relationship is fast-tracked by loss
- Helping children make sense of a step-parent leaving their lives
- Dating again as both a widow and a divorcee
- Protecting your peace and discovering the strength you didn't know you had
This episode is for anyone navigating loss and separation, dating again after divorce or bereavement, or simply trying to make sense of what comes next when life takes a turn you didn't plan for.
Trigger warning: This episode discusses bereavement, mental health and alcohol use. If you're affected by anything discussed, you can call Samaritans free on 116 123, or text SHOUT to 85258.
