Sophie is a hero in our eyes - and it's no surprise she has been publicly recognised as one. Her story and what she's created in response to her grief has already touched so many. In this episode, Sophie opens up about tragically losing her triplet sons and how she and her husband Ash founded the Australian registered charity Running for Premature Babies in their memory. She later went on to have two more sons before losing Ash to an aggressive form of brain cancer. Sophie has turned tragedy into hope and finds beauty in the smallest moments.
Today, Running for Premature Babies has raised $5 million for life saving neonatal equipment and research to give premature babies a better chance of survival and better quality of life.
In memory of Sophie’s late husband Ash, and their babies Henry, Jasper and Evan.

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.
