In the first episode of the pod which dropped this week, the hosts jokingly declared that it will run “from now until we break up again.”
During the episode, Jessie opened up about her concerns, admitting: “I also am worried about doing a podcast with you and you’ve been very good about vocalising this because we’re worried that it will break us up genuinely.”
Speaking about the stress that the podcast could cause the Harry Potter star confessed: “(The podcast) It’s going to be me talking about traumas, talking about how you have somehow caused my traumas, how you are somehow to blame for my traumas.”
The mum-of-four went on to talk about the challenges of motherhood and how pregnancy has really helped her over the years.
She said: “I really thought that I would be able to do more work and do it all, I thought I would be able to do that and I now know is just a lie you cannot do it all.
“I’m really happy when I’m pregnant and I really haven’t been happy in so long.
“My career is slightly f***ked at the moment but at least I’ve got those moments (motherhood) and I’m happy for that to be the sacrifice.”
In 2012, Alfie and Jessie first crossed paths at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, where they were both performing stand-up.
Two years later, the two were set up on a date through a mutual friend.
They went home together but didn’t see each other again – until four months later when Jessie discovered she was pregnant with his child.
They welcomed their son, Donnie, in October 2014, followed by their daughter 2 years later.
But, in 2018 the couple went through a complicated breakup.
Speaking with The Sunday Times, Jessie revealed that she’s not sure if the pair ‘will remain a couple for ever’.
She continued: “We broke up when she (their Daughter) was only a few months old.
“It suddenly all felt so grown-up: I was insecure and thought we needed to develop as adults on our own.
“In truth, I never actually wanted to break up, but the idea snowballed and then it was too late.
“We got back together after a couple of years of angst and personal growth. Both of us now agree that the break-up was worth it.”
In October 2020, they had a second son, and by December 2021, they announced they were expecting their fourth child.
