Mollie King (Part One)

This week Emily and Ray take a stroll with singer, radio presenter and all-round good egg Mollie King . Mollie first found fame as a member of the hugely successful girl group The Saturdays , and she chats to Emily about those whirlwind years in pop, as well as the unexpected paths her life has taken since. Before music, Mollie had been training to become an Olympic skier , and after her time with the band she went on to build a brilliant career in broadcasting. She’s now a much-loved voice on BBC Radio 1 , hosting alongside Matt Edmondson . The pair have also just launched a brand new comedy-meets-crime podcast, Matt and Mollie’s Novel Idea , where they take turns writing chapters of a murder mystery together each week. It’s funny, chaotic and surprisingly gripping. New episodes are released every Wednesday. Emily and Mollie also talk about growing up with dyslexia , the heartbreak of losing her beloved dog Alfie last year, and the very sweet story of how she first met her partner, cricketer Stuart Broad . It’s a warm, funny and wonderfully open conversation with someone whose kindness and positivity light up the whole walk - and who Ray instantly adored.
