- Опубліковано 1 бер 2023
- Welcome to a long overdue catch up Q&A! We decided to do things a bit differently and combine a vlog with questions that you sent us via instagram and UA-cam community. We talk about how we are really doing as twin parents, if we want to have anymore children, how our wedding planning is going, if having twins has affected our relationship and much more!

Please give yourselves a break! You had twins, you lost 2 lites of blood during delivery. You had just moved again. You both deserve medals. You work so well as a couple.
We didn’t even think of that! Thank you 🤍
Dealing with a newborn singleton, particularly your first, is the most insane change. I can't even imagine that for multiples!!
You are doing so impressively well. You've even managed to keep your vlogs going.
I think the boys look more like Fab. They are so handsome. I love the Q &A vlogs!!
The twins are at such a lovely stage. Savour every moment, it goes so quickly. I have my youngest two of five children still at home and I'm adjusting to the older three having spread their wings and left home. My oldest two live in Oxford as my eldest works for the ambulance service there. They live together which is a great comfort for me that they're together. My third lives in Brighton with her girlfriend. My younger two are at school, one in sixth form and one in Year 7.
I'm a single Mum, have brought them up alone and became disabled three years ago. I now have carers come in twice a day to support me and the children.
You two are doing such a wonderful job, you're excellent parents. This time when they're little goes by so incredibly quickly. Being parents is the hardest yet the best and most rewarding job in the world. You will look back and have so many happy memories 💖
I am really glad someone else didn't enjoy the new born Stage I really struggled especially with my disability and baby when they are tiny . Now my daughter is one in a few days I am loving it x
omg the boys are looking so big now!! 🥹
Thank you for being honest.
Everyone even friends on social media never want to show the real day to day struggles ( big or small), even at work, coworkers don’t want to share any hardship, as in everyone wants to show the happy/ non problematic side. Showing your true day to day lives is incredible and inspiring. I don’t think you are being hard on yourself just real. Thank you for letting me in.
A real video by real parents. So happy you are both being so open with each other. I think you're both doing alot to stay conne ted! I was 6 yrs old when my twin brothers (#6 & 7 of 7) were born. My Dad did absolutely nothing, but I couldn't stand leaving a crying baby. I started helping with them. My Mom never said thanks, but I never expected her to. I think with 7 kids she had all she could do.
Guys please take stock and reflect on how well you are doing. 2 happy thriving babies. You're a great team. It was never going to be easy but not all of life is. Thanks for keeping it real.
Aww Ell, look at the way the baby is looking at you, gorgeous, I see Noah like Fab and Ari like Ell xx
OMG! Jeeze talk about doppelgänger. You and Gregg, even my husband chipped in (does not do socials, UA-cam, nothing at all) and said, ‘got to be bro’s’ 😂. Can’t wait for more housey stuff guys. And just to end, Fab the coconut hob knobs are to die for, good shout! Keep vlogging xx
So lovely to meet the boys finally!❤️ always so lovely seeing you xx
You two had twins straight out of the gate. This was all brand new to you both. You are doing an incredible job. You can tell how much you love the boy’s as well. Being honest about what you’re going through is the best thing you can do. Stand tall, be proud and carry on. Ignore the ugly. You boys are the cutest. They are at a fun stage and will only get better. Thank you for sharing how life has changed and also for sharing those precious boys with us. Much love from Florida.
You two are absolutely adorable and so much fun to watch and listen to. The boys have wonderful role models. Stay happy!
You guys are doing amazing, your so in sync and the boys are just adorable

Love this type of video. You both are doing a great job with your boys! Just remember to be kind to each other and yourselves. Love from Ottawa, Canada.
Love these videos, love seeing how you get on with each other and are so supportive of each other, wish I’d had that level of support from my partner when my children were young
Really enjoyed this style for a Q+A
Love this video. Answering questions & changing location...worked so well. Love seeing the boys interacting & smiling. Totally agree the newborn stage isnt fun its bloody hard work it gets better. Thanka guys for another great video 💕
Loving the combo vlog with q&a! Boys are so like you Ell! Another fab vlog that’s made my day! 😘
I really enjoyed this video! Love your honest interactions & sharing. You’re a beautiful family. ❤👨👩👦👦❤
I really enjoy your videos. So nice to see your family as life goes. Keep being the wonderful parents you are. You baby’s are perfect.
Love your vlogs, but this one is truly special, so down to earth and normal. You are an amazing couple. Best from Canada❤
Thank you so so much that you two are honest ‼️‼️‼️🙏‼️🙏❤️❤️❤️
Awww super cute and adorable 🙌🏼🤍🤍
Love watching you guy’s and the twins. Growing sooo fast🤍🤍
Bless..!!
Loved this qna and the way you done it. Your boys made me laugh bless them. Looking forward to the next vlogg. Your amazing parents and the boys are getting so big. Sending much love and light to you all 💜💜💜😘
Can your babies get any cuter! Their smiles are so adorable. Keep up the good work, you are both doing so well xx
Just love how honest you both are. Wish more people were like you!! Great vlog, gorgeous couple, gorgeous boys!! ❤❤❤❤
Gosh, your fabulous I really thought your vids would be less but your sticking to em 😉
Great Q&A video. The boys are so adorable 🥰 they have the most cutest smiles. I think you both are doing amazing as parents. As for c-section you had an amazing recovery, with my last baby I had to have an emergency c-section and it took me a full 6 weeks to recover it was very difficult but everybody’s experience is different. Thankyou for sharing your experiences of life with twins. Lots of love to you all xxx❤
What a great surprise to get a second video this week! I’m so glad you don’t post the negative/mean posts. There’s enough of it in the world now. They’re your babies and it’s your family, and you have the right to do what works best for you. I really believe parenting is a learn-as-go experience, and no two experiences are the same! Your honesty is so important, especially for new and soon-to be mothers. I still can’t tell who the boys look like the most, but they’re adorable and really developing such cute personalities!
Iloue vlogs videos and everything you do your boys are so handsome and cheeky and you both are fantastic parents
Thank you so much! 🤍🤍

Lovely video I love this type of vlogs .the boys are beautiful xx
OMG YOU GUYS!!! I’m so obsessed with you so imagine my surprise when you answered my question 🙋🏻♀️ 🎉 thanks so much xoxo
Great video as always
The boys are absolutely adorable, you have such a lovely family ❤❤❤❤
You are my favourites. Love your twin boys, they have a smile that melts your heart. Love always. South Africa
If you can't find any flowers look into dried flower bouquets, thats what I did. They're beautiful, they can still be very colourful (if that's what you're into), you can organise them weeks or months in advance and they're dried so you can keep them after the wedding. You could frame them, put them on display or even sell them on (I sold my brides maid bouquets).
Loved the vlog I think the boys are more like fab, your both doing a great job I love how much fab helps with the boys keep doing what your doing xx❤️
Boys are your double!! Can't see fab yet!
You guys are amazing LOVE watching your life vlogs!! ♡♡
I'm always excited when you upload a new video. ❤you two are so sympathetic. Greetings from Germany 🥰
I am 73 and I look forward every week to seeing you videos. You are so inspiring even to me at my age.
I like the mix of Q&A and everyday life. Love the paint on the cabinets. St. Louis Mo. USA
You guys are doing great. Love all your videos. The boys are getting so entertaining with their beautiful smiles and coos. I think Ari looks more like Ell and Noah looks like Fab but just alittle. Have a fantastic day.
I love your videos, they’re so real and honest! I think Ari looks like El and Noah looks like Fab 💜
Yous are so honest it’s not that easy but it will get better your baby boys are so cute and yous are doing amazing job
The boys look like a good mix between you both! Gorgeous twins ❤
Re: who do the boys look like. I would say that Ari looks more like Ell and Noah more like Fab (even though they are identical) x
I think at the moment they look more like Ell but I expect they will go through phases of looking more like Fab- that’s how it went with my children anyway. I love seeing them smiling now.
i just love this family i am obsessed with you guys 🥰🥰🥰
I enjoy whatever you post...thanks for the effort 🙂
I look forward to watching your videos every week, You're all such a beautiful little family ❤❤❤❤ Love Kelly from Australia
I just love how real u guys are it's so refreshing because u see so many people online making out there lives are perfect and I know myself even having 1 new born was so hard...all 4 of my children have suffered with colic and reflux and seeing them upset all the time was awful so I totally agree with ell I found it very stressful. U guys work so well together and your amazing with the twins👶👶sending u so much love as always 💗 💙💗💙 xx
Personally I found the newborn stage a lot easier. I found from 6-9 month harder as baby getting more independent but not able to do a lot still, babys can be so demanding sometimes. Doesn’t help my partner works 6am-8pm x
Love your videos! Fab, Greg could pass as your brother. I couldn’t tell u apart when u were at lunch and that lunch looked delish. I think everyone learns the samething with first babies. You learn with the first ones and will be different with the next babies. I don’t know how my mother did it. She had 6 children (I’m a twin with a brother at 2 yrs old) under 8 years. Bless her heart! The boys are adorable especially now that their smiling! They will change in looks some what as they get older. I don’t know who they look like more, your had shapes are very similar. The key thing when raising children is sharing your thoughts with open minds and you both have that. Love you guys!
Great video guys ❤️❤️❤️❤️
2 videos in one week, a lovely notification to get off UA-cam!! I think the boys are the spit of Fab
Ari is definitely like you! They’re getting to the really cute stage! I always hated when my little boy wasn’t a newborn anymore but the next bit is actually way better 🥺 Then the same when he turned 1 but I think 14 months onwards is just the most fun you’ll ever have!
I understand! My granddaughter had reflux when she was born. It was so difficult. Poor baby! You guys are doing this parenting thing great!
Those are two of my favorite flowers too.
The boys have gotten so big
Oh & the answer to your last questions we LOVE BOTH vlogs and these all your styles and contents we love never think its boring. It's fun and interesting for us xx
I love that you show a very real view of what it is like to have a baby rather than only sharing all the good. Every baby is a blessing. I had one that never slept more than a hour at a time for 5 years of his life yet my other free slept through the night from birth and were the perfect babies. I wish they had you tube back than so I could see that I wasn't the only one going through it. But to be honest even when you tube did start people only posted the good times so I wouldn't of wanted to watch it lol.
Hey guys I love the wat you have done this vlog incorporating the questions in with the vlog. Also sorry Fab but I reckon the boys look more like Ell. I love your channel, thankyou for being so open and honest about your life. Don't be so hard on yourselves you are Fantastic parents. xx
Ell you for me over here just laughing so hard 😂🤣 you say "well that's a sight you don't want to see" as your pointing the camera towards the awake baby!! ❤️
I thought at first that Greg was Fab's brother as they look a lot alike. It is great that you were able to have dinner out with friends.
Don’t listen to any negative comments, you are doing a wonderful job parenting. Do things the way you want and don’t worry about what people have to say. Y’all have 2 beautiful boys and wonderful family so you are very blessed. Love 💕 y’all!
Good and informative vlog. The boys are growing up.
Yup I prefer a Q&A in this format. Those smiles are everything, I know I say it a lot but really...they are everything! Your boys are so fab! Hahaha, see what I did there? Cheers for now and thanks for sharing. 👶🏻👶🏻
I for one enjoyed the Q&A! It’s lovely to hear you both being so honest about life with newborn twins ❤️ I’m in my 50’s & have been watching you for a while now (before the pregnancy) your vlogs are a breath of fresh air, whatever you do or talk about , you come across as such a down to earth lovely couple, so please do the odd Q & A every once in a while! That way you can answer questions a lot of people ask! 😘👍
Quick update, I had a scam message reply from (not) you. Have reported it xx
Loving your honestly here. I switch off from the Instagram photoshopped videos of 'perfect' evenings and find your content so relateablr. I Found newborn so hard and we went straight into a lockdown. Then another so had little to no help or support from anywhere. Can't imagine having twins. Dancing fruit is still a favourite for my 2 Yr old it always calmed her down. Now she's hit the Terrible 2's and I'm being tested on a whole new level 🙄
Keep doing what you're doing, smashing it.
Yess!! I don't enjoy the newborn stage either, I'm so much happier later when the babies don't need constant attention and I can get some rest and then enjoy them ♥️
You are great parents and a great couple I think the boys look like Ell. Love watching your life you are doing amazing xx
Hi guys u both are doing such a fabulous job the trick is that u can’t do everything like before and the boys come first house work can wait do what u can and don’t get anxious because if u both are anxious the baby’s know sending all my love to u all xxxx
Hello from the Netherlands! I agree with Fab, I like the Q&A vlogging, it's more interactive but still straight to the point and you guys don't stop doing what you need to do in the process as much like with the sit-down style ones. I really enjoyed this! You guys are so down-to-earth and chill, I like the pace of your videos. 👌
Glad you enjoyed! Thanks for the feedback 🙌🏻
I’ve thought they always looked like Ell as newborns but now starting to look like both of you equally 😊
Watching this while feeding my twins and my boy twin wants held all time. You guys are doing amazing 💖
You are amazing!
You guys are doing great!! Look how much the boys adore both of you!! Fab, your devotion to Ell and the boys is so obvious and is a legacy to them all!! Always tell them that you love them, even when they’re teens!!
🫶 for sure! We will always tell them
You are both doing amazing and it's so nice to see someone showing the realistic side of having young babies. My son is now 14 months old and had cmpa and bad reflux and I remember feeling jealous of the parents who had such settled babies but the reality is most people don't post the hard days. I am now 26 weeks pregnant with our second and I feel more prepared and understand that it's fine to struggle when they are newborns and it has no reflection on you as a parent
I am really really grateful that your C-section recovery was so good and that you didn't have any issues me on the other hand I had a scheduled C-section I was 35 that was 40 weeks but when I went in that morning they were having trouble finding his finding his heartbeat he was 10 lb even I had gestational diabetes he had issues as well it took me 10 and a half months to heal I did have a very hard recovery but I'm not young and healthy like you are I am older and overweight but I would do it all over again it was so worth it but I'm just so grateful that your recovery was so good that makes my heart really happy
Fab and Ell , I love your videos. I’ve been watching you guys since the beginning of your pregnancy. Your boys are exquisite , it will get easier as they get older. Much love from Gainesville Fl ❤❤❤❤
I love all the video you guys put out whether it's Q&A or normal vlog of you guys and the babies! It's all good content so just continue to be you and have to admire honesty and not fake it till you make it! ❤️That's huge to hear and made me radiate to you guys even better cause that's what I like is real and I love knowing I have it here!! You guys are amazing and so well! The baby's are getting so big it's crazy! But what was weird was when you asked about who the babies looked like and about 5 mins prior to that I said had to myself that lil guy looks like mom and the other looks like daddy! Which is weird cause they are identical but I see just a few little differences between them so I focus on that so I know who is who! Lol everytime I watch you guys I try to pick who is who before you guys say anything! Haha I can tell them apart by looking at them but can't remember which one I thought looked like mom and which looked like dad! Haha either way it doesn't matter cause they are gorgeous perfect little twins boys! So cute now they are starting to make noises and smiles and just growing! You guys are amazing!! ❤️❤️
Definitely look like mommy!.💕
You amazing parents ❤
Omg Ell where did you get that adorable white cardigan?? So nice !! Thanks for the update !! You guys are just killing it !! And I really do enjoy your vids and appreciate that they aren’t like 2 min long- you really get to see how the babies are doing !!! Thanks !! ❤️🙏 ps my grandson when he was little loved loved to get outside also !! So great for BOTH of us !
You guys are awesome. Doing so great.
Ell you're totally right about the c section recovery, I'm so glad yours has been so good. Everyone else I've spoken to as well had a really easy recovery. I've found it very difficult to come to terms with as my recovery was pretty rough and now 4 months on I'm still getting pains and numbness around it after I've worked out. But I had a category 1 emergency c section and was done very rushed 😢 but that must be the difference. Because anyone else I know has had a great recovery as yours ❤️ also, I was really weird about touching my scar , I had an op on my stomach a few years ago too and I was the same with that too. Ive had to force myself to touch it now because I'm trying massage on it to make it hopefully less painful and numb but omg it makes me sick 🤣🤣🤣 so weird isn't it. You're my motivation for working out and getting back strong again too. Love watching your videos ,keep up the amazing work being parents ❤️
Loved this thankyou much appreciated ❤️👍🤗
Love you guys 💜
love the vlogs and boys are growing so fast very cute you make amazing parents lots love from qld Australia
Hi Ell 👋 👋 👋 👋 Hi Fab 👋 nice to see you both 😀 😊 and your gorgeous boys xxxx
