🔴 TRIGGER WARNING: This video discusses sexual abuse, trauma, and addiction. Please watch with care. 🔴** Holly's story is one of the most raw, real, and gut-wrenching journeys we've ever shared on this channel. Abused by her own father from the very beginning, neglected and mistreated by her mother, and subjected to more trauma by those who were supposed to protect her—Holly’s childhood was anything but safe. As a young girl, she turned to food addiction for comfort, the only thing she could control in a world full of chaos. When her mother moved in an older boyfriend, the abuse continued. Even after earning a soccer scholarship and escaping to college, the cycle didn’t stop. She was assaulted again while helping someone in a parking lot—another shattering moment in a life already scarred by pain. Through every heartbreak, Holly fought to survive. But survival wasn’t enough—she wanted to heal*. And now, she's speaking out, not just for herself, but for anyone who's ever felt broken, silenced, or alone. 🎥 This is Part 1 of Holly’s story. Part 2 premieres tomorrow night—don’t miss how she begins to transform her trauma into strength, her wounds into wisdom.* --- 🕊️ You're not alone. If you or someone you know is experiencing abuse, please reach out to someone you trust or contact a local support organization. Help is available.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
