Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're listening to the Robin and Chet podcast a couple
of days ago. I was talking about because you did
ask me what has happened to my relationship with my
Belgian boyfriend called who you call Waffles? Yes, I did
not call him that, And I said I told you
that we were taking a break and that I had
decided to step back because he was involved with his
(00:23):
ex in terms of settlement and divorce, and out of
respect to her and to him and to me, I
just feel that it's not a place for me to
be in. Just before we get into your opinion on that,
I will say that the story made the Courier Mail
yesterday and the Daily Mail this morning.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Oh really, and there's.
Speaker 1 (00:40):
A bit of light entertainment. People get really offended by this.
I do not I read the comments from the Courier
Mail because people are so nasty.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
Cury male comments. And I don't think it's to do
It's not the fault of the paper, I don't think,
but the Courier male comments from people are the most
aggressive comments you will ever see in your life at.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Their foul and people are so nunh And I feel
like this is a platform where I can if there's
any kids listening, and you get bullied online, let me
be the person to tell you that it's not okay.
And so on this show, I'm going to call out
the bullies. There's one guy called Heath I won't say
his last name, wrote she saved his life by breaking
up with him. Sure he would get cancer or something.
(01:21):
Isn't that awful because of course I've been married twice
and both of my husbands have died, one from suicide,
one from cancer. Then other guys pile in. These are
all blokes, by the way, Grant says, there's a pattern forming,
especially since her ex and then a guy called feel
Goes can't argue with the truth far out, they're revaulting
the truth. You horrendous human beings hide behind your keyboards
(01:45):
and don't want to actually be nice and be say
kind thing.
Speaker 2 (01:49):
I wonder if one of them would be brave enough
to get on air. I already know they wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
But if you want to talk to me, if you
agree with that, if you're happy to see it to
my face thirteen one oh six five, I will counter it, saying.
Tracy said it's hard being in the public eye and
trying to live life onwards and upwards. Robin, you found
your person.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
People forget you're a real person. I don't must do.
How do you say something so cruel to someone without
thinking that you're not a person I know.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
And you find this really difficult when it happens to you.
I just don't because I think that's all about them
and not about me. But it brings me to the
point that you and I are very different humans.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Yes, we are.
Speaker 1 (02:25):
And when it comes to this conversation, I said to
you because my son Leu and my middle son heard
me talking about it a couple of days ago and
took it upon himself to come over yesterday and he said, Mom,
I want to talk to you about that. And I
said why And he said, because you're so happy with Olivier.
Like you guys just have so much fun together, and
I haven't seen you have fun for like fifteen years. Yes,
(02:48):
Why do you make it so hard for yourself?
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Was his question? Wow?
Speaker 1 (02:52):
And I said, because mate, I've got it on a
my I've got it honor me, and I have to
be respectful to everyone involved, and I have true passion
for his ex. This would be really shitty for her too,
and him, and I feel like they need to do
that without me being in the background.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Well, let me start with us. Support your decision. Whatever
you want to do. But if that's what you want
to do, I understand, and I do it makes sense.
I understand what you're doing. But we have one life.
I know we're here, this is it and you and
I totally agree. I haven't seen you this happy before,
and I will say, in the last few weeks, I
haven't seen you. I've seen you unhappy again. Yeah, you're
(03:29):
trying to find it and you're trying to You're putting
on a brave face. It's true. I know, and I
think if you wait for everything to be perfect, it's
never going to happen. It's never going to be perfect conditions.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Okay, so tell me this. Because you moved on really
quickly from your ex amber and you had a little baby,
like you had a small child, Yes, was did it
go pear shape? Because I hear terrible stories of women
being really unhappy and that and because their exes have
moved on that it just becomes messy.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
Yeah, it somehow, perhaps we're a special situation, but somehow
it didn't get messy there wasn't where I was definitely
aware of it because we were going through divorce proceedings
and you know, then all of a sudden money gets
into it and all that. But somehow it was okay.
And Naomi, I think probably was, I guess closest to
your position. This my new partner, And she did have
(04:22):
a moment where she thought, is this too messy? Like
do I want to be involved in this because he's
going through a breakup and all that. But I guess
she was like me. She was like, how often do
you meet someone that you'd love spending time with and
that you want to spend all your time with and
that doesn't drive you crazy?
Speaker 1 (04:40):
But I also want to in the future hopefully, and
you know, what is meant for you will not pass
you by, right. I really believe that things happen for
reason I'm a bit more woo woo than you is
that I hope in the future that if this can
work itself out, then I will be able to meet
his ax with a hug and meet his kids with
love and respect and them know that I wasn't a
(05:01):
part of what could be an icky situation.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
Yeah, but you know what, maybe you'll hug him in
five years anyway, Why make yourself unhappy right now? I
don't know, because you can you know what I mean?
Like that, that's what you know. Know MEI and Amber
at a way better place than they were a year ago,
and they'll be at a better place in a year.
And I'll be in a better place in a year.
Speaker 1 (05:20):
No, you'll still be awkward and you'll hate it.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
Yeah I will, but it's less. You know, every day
it's less awkward. Every day it's less, and it's you know.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
Okay, well, no, no, no, I am absolutely taking on board
everything that you are saying. And I will say that
I've done a lot of hard things in my life.
This is also really hard because it's my decision, whereas
the other things that have happened to me have happened
to me that I've had to deal with. So thank you.
Speaker 2 (05:46):
Okay, I do respect you. Yes, and again I'll support
it if you want to.
Speaker 1 (05:50):
If you want to be unhappy, no, no, if I
want to be unhappy, keep Whiteman is saying, I will
put up with you.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
