Sorry for the delay between episodes but I am so excited to bring you this chat with Ali!As many of you might know, she recently discovered she had breast cancer and has gone through treatment, with her husband, family, neighbours and loved ones providing endless love and support. In this chat, we discuss her cancer journey, how she found out she had it just weeks after moving to Ireland, and how the people she least expected turned up for her. We also talk TV, being a star in the era of the lads mags and the naughties, that teacher-student affair storyline and why we are both aiming for the small wins from now on. Ali is the loveliest guest you could hope for, so open, honest and goddamn hilarious!I hope you enjoy. If you are worried about yourself and anything we discussed, please seek medical help.
