What happens when you’ve spent years being a wife, a mother, and everything everyone else needed you to be — and suddenly decide it’s your turn?

This week, Roxy sits down with Juliet Mayhew, star of The Real Housewives of London, for a conversation that goes far beyond reality TV.

At 49, Juliet is stepping into one of her most public chapters yet. She opens up about rediscovering herself as her children grow up, returning to her roots as a performer, and what reinvention looks like when you’re doing it in front of an audience that has plenty of opinions about who you are.

Juliet also gets candid about marriage and how a long-term relationship evolves when you evolve, being misunderstood and judged by other women, navigating friendship in midlife, her Australian roots and life in London, and what becoming a Real Housewife has taught her about herself.

Plus, we get into a question so many women wrestle with in midlife: Why do we wait for permission to make it our turn?

And come back this Thursday when Juliet returns to The Iconic Midlife for a very British game of “Posh or Tosh?” Roxy puts her on the spot with questionable social behavior, friendship etiquette, red-carpet politics and a little Housewives shade. You’ll definitely want to hear which ones Juliet declares perfectly posh — and which are absolute tosh.
