Abbey Clancy reveals she was ghosted by TV bosses after being asked to be in huge hit show
Abbey Clancy has revealed that she was ghosted by TV bosses after previously being asked to be in one of their hit shows.
The model, 39, made the confession on her The Therapy Crouch podcast with husband Peter.
On the recent show they read out a story from one of their listeners which was about colloquialisms.
The pair then got on to talking about the Scouse phrase 'come 'ed', which means 'come ahead' or 'come on'.
This reminded Abbey of the sitcom G'wed - a comedy about working class Liverpudlian teenagers
She then said: 'They asked me to be in that. I said yes but they never got back to me.' - which left Peter in stitches.
Abbey then continued as she poked fun at the career fail as she exaggerated her accent and said: 'Come 'ed, lad. Get in touch, yeah?!'
The second series of G'wed aired in February and a third is in production.
The unexpected confession comes after last week Abbey revealed Peter 's 'annoying' parenting habit as she opened up on her 'chaotic' family dynamic.
The blonde beauty candidly admitted the former footballer, 44, can sometimes get on her nerves when it comes to parenting their four children - Sophia Ruby, 13, Liberty Rose, 9, and sons Johnny, 6, and Jack, five.
She told OK! magazine: 'Pete's good cop and I'm bad cop. I'm the one going, 'Do your homework, eat your veg', and Pete's like, 'Let's play, kids!' which can be annoying but… it works.
'Our kids are very good, though. They've all got distinct personalities but they're all easy-going. That's not to say family life isn't chaotic – it's chaotic!
'There's absolutely nothing chilled about, but we wouldn't have it any other way.'
Abbey also dubbed Peter 'useless' as she confirmed her fears over her sex life confessions.
The couple, who hosts the Therapy Crouch podcast, explained to the Mirror how they keep their spark alive after 14 years of marriage.
She told the publication that despite spending all their time together, she doesn't feel like she 'needs space' away from him.
But Abbey did explain that when she is feeling unwell, she does need some space because Peter is a 'c**p nurse'.
She said: 'I don't need 'space' from Peter – unless I'm ill, like I am at the minute, because he's a c**p nurse and I want him to go away! He's useless then.'
During their podcast Abbey is very open and honest about her private life, which also tends to involve some very racy information about their sex life.
And while she and Peter seem unbothered by disclosing their bedroom antics, she did confess that she worries she will say something she doesn't.
'But you know what? It's important for us to be authentic… to be real', she added.
Abbey and Peter also shared they make sure their family stay connected with some unique rules in their house.
They implemented an iPad and phone ban at Christmas, insisting it's led to a more positive attitude in their household.
Speaking on their The Therapy Crouch podcast, Peter explained: 'We said to them iPads and phones are gone and I feel we've stuck to that.
'We made a conscious effort amongst ourselves to cut them out and they've properly cut them out.'
They mentioned other rules they've put in place include focusing on homework, spending time as a family before having quality time together once the kids go to bed.

Dan Osborne puts on united front with Jacqueline Jossa amid 'flirty texts'
Reality star Dan Osborne has headed on another family trip with Jacqueline Jossa and their kids as they continue to focus on their marriage after announcing their split in March Dan Osborne has continued to prove he is trying to make things right with Jacqueline Jossa and focus on their family amid reports he sent "flirty texts" to Christine McGuinness. The couple tied the knot in 2017 but, following months of speculation, announced in March that they had decided to spend time apart. However, just weeks later it seemed like they were not ready to give each up just yet as they jetted off to Mexico for a "make or break" family holiday with their children. Speaking to the Mirror, a source said the pair were "trying to fall back in love with each other again." They explained: "They've had a rocky, up and down relationship so now they're trying to do things differently and give each other more space at home, while enjoying this holiday. Jacqueline and Dan want to be together for their children and do want to be a family, but now it's a case of remembering why they were together in the first place. "It's been a tough road, and they know things need to change to make this work." Dan, 33, and Jacqueline, 32, have continued to put in the effort and have jetted off on another family break together. As they carve out their path of reconciliation, Dan shared snaps from their trip to Ireland with daughters Ella, 10, and Mia, six. They enjoyed a day in the countryside walking alpacas while looking out over sandy beaches. In a heartwarming moment, Dan cuddled Mia as they cherished the family day out together. Their trip comes just days after reports that Dan had reached out to model Christine as they both dealt with their marriage breakdowns. Christine was going through a divorce from funnyman Paddy McGuinness, and it was thought the pair found solace in each other's situation and formed a stronger bond. The Real Housewives of Cheshire star's marriage was over, but Dan was reportedly still trying to mend his broken home with the EastEnders star. According to the Sun, the pair who have known each other since 2019, had stayed in touch in the years and remained amicable when they bumped into each other, but sparks soon became noticeable. A source told the publication: "They stayed in touch sporadically and would bump into each other at events and their messages got pretty flirty. Some were seen by mutual friends. 'She would call him 'D' in texts, and it became an open secret among their circles. There is no suggestion anything sexual happened, but it's fair to say there was a spark between them." The insider insisted: "She is absolutely adamant nothing sexual happened between them. She also was 100 per cent single at the time and could chat to anyone she wanted.' Former TOWIE star Dan is also adamant there was no romance between the pair with a pal saying: "Dan is devoted to Jacqueline and would hate for any suggestion of impropriety. Of course, it's possible for a man and woman to be mates.' Christine and Paddy split after 11 years together. Despite breaking off their marriage vows, the duo stayed living together for the sake of their three kids.

Tamzin Outhwaite makes major romance vow as she spills on toyboy split
Actress Tamzin Outhwaite has issued an update on her love life and the major change she is making going forward following her split from ex boyfriend Tom Child last summer Tamzin Outhwaite has made a life-changing vow following the split from her boyfriend Tom Child after six years together. The actress, 54, met Tom, 33, at a yoga class in 2017 and their love blossomed away from their mats. However, things were not meant to be between the pair as they went their separate ways last summer. Tamzin has been open about her struggle with love, having previously been married to actor Tom Ellis, 46. They split in 2014 amid cheating allegations while Tom was filming Once Upon A Time with actress Emile De Ravin. After six years in a relationship with someone two decades younger than her, Tamzin has revealed she is now ready to be on her own. Tamzin and Tom parted ways amicably and have remained one of each others best friends. Yet, after their split Tamzin has decided to make a huge change going forward in her love life with a very strict rule. She told Hello Magazine: "He's still one of my best friends, and I adore him. But I had to say: ''I don't want to share a bed. I'm in a phase where I need to be on my own'." Last year, Tamzin opened up to the Mirror about her newfound single status. 'I'm happy single,' she told us. 'There's a lot on! Life is really busy, throwing a relationship into that is a whole other thing. "Freedom fills up my cup, freedom to do as you please is a lovely thing. That makes me happy.' Tamzin, who took part in the Strictly Come Dancing Christmas special last year, said she is on a quest to challenge herself, build on things that make her happy and 'fill up my own cup' 'I'm just trying to stay open, get out of my comfort zone and do different things to help me grow,' she added. 'I'm on a bit of a mission at the moment. I want to do more things that give you fear because even going through the fear is important. That's where your growth happens as a person.' Tamzin's change in pace began after the menopause hit while she was trying to juggle her busy life as an actress, a mum-of-two, and a doting daughter to her elderly father who lives 'at the end of the garden'. She decided to throw herself into wellness, learning breathwork, stepping up her yoga practice and building a sauna in her spare room. Tamzin said: 'Taking stock, taking a breath and retreating is something I've been learning to do so I can fill up my own cup then come back into my life and do everything that I do, which is keeping up a career, keeping up home, keeping up everything to do with my children and my dad, who lives with me at the end of the garden. "It's making sure everyone is OK. I'm not a saint but juggling all the plates and a career on top of that can be quite stifling.'
