I sit and chat to you about why it's felt hard posting online again after an extended summer break and sharing some very sad personal news. To take my mind off things, I head into central London to get my brows done & catch up with my oldest friends for dinner and drinks. The next day is spent with family, coffee at Sourdough Sophia, a walk around Parliament Hill and an al fresco lunch. I chat about September overwhelm and upcoming work plans including some exciting October launches! Rounding up the summer holidays, I chat you through some top recommendations for future trips with kids.

Girl, the moment I heard the wobble in your voice I started tearing up with you. 96 years of being loved and loving others is all we can ask for. You can hear how proud you are of the life she lived. Sending all my love to you and your family. ❤❤❤ Here's to celebrating Grandma Theresa and her incredible life. 🎉🎉
Knowing how much you (quite rightly) value privacy, it feels a huge privilege that you chose to share this with us. You said that you feel we're part of your life, and having followed you for well over a decade, you definitely feel part of ours. Sending so much love to you and your family, plus I believe there is far more of your wonderful Grandma in you than you think ❤
Sending my condolences, thank you for sharing her with us. 96 years of a life well lived and loved ♥️
I’m so sorry for your loss Lily. Your grandmother was so beautiful. I recently had surgery and while I have been recovering I have been rewatching your old vlogmas videos for comfort. ❤️
Trying to do my makeup here and I’m sobbing with you. My Nana died last year at 90, just before my second baby was born. But like you say, I’d prepared for the moment for years but it still doesn’t make it any less sad. I’ve realised the reason I felt so connected to her was because we are so alike. She taught me so much by just being herself, most of all how to be a mother. Sending you lots of love, it does get easier. How lucky we are to have these amazing women in our lives ❤️
I am so sorry to hear about your grandmother. My deepest condolences to you and your family. It sounds like you treasured every moment with her. I appreciated the videos where you were creating an archive with her of her old photos.
We're all crying here Lily. Im so sorry. a big hug. <3
Oh Lily, I had tears in my eyes watching you share your loss with us. I’m so sorry to hear of your grandma’s passing, she was always such a star when she was on camera and it’s evident how special she was to you and your family. I hope the funeral is the celebration you all long for and thank you as always for sharing with us. I was thinking aurum & gray too for Deba, I have a necklace from them and wear it every day and it’s perfection with my children’s initials on
Oh lily I’m so sorry. My Grandma passed away last year, two weeks before my wedding. I was sooo close to her, she was amazing and I miss her so much 💔♥️ How incredible that your Grandma lived SUCH a full, long and healthy life. You couldn’t ask for more could you. But it’s still so hard. Sending love xxx
Ahh Lily. She was so wonderful and your bond was always so evident, it was clear you adored each other. I know you mentioned one time she was feeling ready to go for a while, may she now rest in peace with her daughter. What an incredible life and an inspiration to us all.
Oh god! So emotional, I cried with you because I know how close you were with her. 38 years of sharing love and wisdom, she was very special, we could all tell. ❤
Oh Lily. I lost my Granny, my mother's mother, and it's hard to put into words but she was my person too. I lost her 8 years ago and I think about her every single day. What an incredible tribute to your Granny ❤ And to my Granny, Mary, I love you
Oh Lily, my heart goes out to you. I'm so sorry for your loss. Thank you for sharing. Sending you hugs for comfort as you celebrate your beloved Gran's amazing life ❤️
Heartfelt sympathies to you and your family Lily. I am 37 and lost my dear Nana in March this year aged 95. She lived a great life and then her final year was really very difficult. May they now rest in peace ✨
I lost my grandma at 37 and although we are so lucky to spend all these years with them, I think it makes it harder when they leave us . Sending love ❤❤❤❤
Sarah and Sebastian, for the tiny initial necklace for debs, its an Australian brand and they’re the best necklace I’ve worn one for years. I’m sorry to hear about your grandma, how lucky you are to have such beautiful memories xxxx
Oh Lily I am so so sorry for your loss 😢 you’re right even the”best case” scenario it’s still so sad. Sending you and the family so much love - I am sure your speech will be so beautiful ❤
My sincere condolences to you and your family at this sad time. I lost my grandmother 5 years ago and like you I was privileged to know her for 40 years and she also got to spend loads of time with my daughter and son. My daughter being older remembers her so fondly. She was honestly one of my best friends and always a pillar of support for me. She also loved fashion and beauty. I miss her loads. All my love to you all ❤
Lily, I'm so sorry for your loss. I have followed you a long time and adored the close relationship you had with your grandmother. I cried when you posted the tribute to her w/photos on your IG. It was truly lovely. I see you in your grandmother. Thank you for sharing this heartbreaking news. I enjoy your videos and it is wonderful to see you again. x
There are no strangers among us today [I hope]. I remember one of your early YT posts, when your grandma was celebrating her birthday. An emotional moment when you introduce to her your F Word book dedication. Whole journey of emotions across her face 💙 I remember what a beauty she was. When you recently went to sort through her things and memories with her, I found myself thinking: could you imagine a better way to begin the farewell process? Gosh, from what you're saying, I don’t even know a small fraction of her rich, full life! One thing is certain — she’s in your DNA. Thank you for weaving the story of such personality, her story into your weekly monologues. I'm feeling incredibly privileged today ❤
