MUMBELIEVABLE is a funny and insightful podcast about our maddening, mixed up and marvellous mums. When Sonia's mum, Margaret, was sectioned at age 80 and placed in a secure care home, she finally understood her mum’s neuro diversity and their fun-filled relationship flourished for the last ten years of Margaret’s life.

The inspiration for MUMBELIEVABLE comes from the hit blog soniasmum, which featured their hilarious conversations and back story. Inspired by hundreds of people sharing their own anecdotes, MUMBELIEVABLE was born.


In each episode Sonia invites a famous face to talk about their relationship with their own mother, from the funny moments to the deeper stories. This is a celebration of the mumbelievable women who have made us who we are.

  • Fern, Family and Fame - Fern Britton

    Fern, Family and Fame - Fern Britton
    2026/06/03

    In this heartfelt episode of Mumbelievable, host Sonia Beldom welcomes broadcaster, novelist, and television personality Fern Britton. Fern reflects on her glamorous yet emotionally complex mother, Ruth, whose wartime experiences, fierce personality, and unconventional parenting shaped her life. She shares vivid memories of Cornwall, family holidays, military drills in the garden, and a mother who never complained despite enduring separation, war, heartbreak, and hardship. Fern also opens up about her own experiences with depression and postnatal depression, the misunderstandings surrounding mental health, and how grief and divorce later led her to rebuild herself physically and emotionally. Alongside Sonia’s own reflections on growing up with a mentally ill mother, the episode becomes a moving exploration of the complicated but enduring bonds between mothers and children — the love, humour, damage, strength, and legacies passed down through generations.
