Then it's into your questions!
Q1: MY MOTHER-IN-LAW IS POSTING PHOTOS WITH MY HUSBAND'S EX-WIFE ALL OVER FACEBOOK
They've been together ten years. He was married before and, from what he's told her, his mum and his ex-wife didn't get along. Then out of nowhere: three separate Facebook posts of the mother-in-law at brunch with the ex-wife. Her friends think it's a deliberate dig. Her husband won't say anything because he hates conflict.
Q2: MY FRIEND IS PREGNANT AND I KNOW IT WASN'T AN ACCIDENT
Her friend has had an on-and-off friends-with-benefits situation for years with a guy most of their group doesn't approve of. Now she's pregnant. The problem: just weeks earlier, the friend had told her she was thinking about not taking the morning after pill and that "if there was anyone to have an accident with, it was him." She doesn't know how to show up, can't pretend to believe it was a surprise, and doesn't know whether to say anything.
Q3: SHE CHEATED. NOW HE'S USING IT AS AN EXCUSE TO BARELY COME HOME OR BE A DAD
A six month old baby, both on six-figure salaries, and the husband has decided to take a career change that means he'll only be home once or twice a month. When she raised concerns, he turned it back on her and accused her of not wanting to take responsibility for their child. The reason he's doing this? She cheated on him.
Q4: MY EX LEFT ME FOUR MONTHS INTO OUR MARRIAGE FOR THE LOCAL BARMAID. NOW HE WANTS ME BACK.
Five years together, two kids, four months into marriage - and he left. It's been two years of courts, separation and his bad behaviour (which he now admits was jealousy over her new partner). He's begging to come back. She still loves him. She misses the family unit. Her little boys keep asking for Mummy and Daddy to live together again. She's now in a new relationship with a man who is wonderful to her kids. She doesn't know what to do.

First 90 secondsKeeshia Pettit· Panelist0:00
[upbeat music] Hi, guys, and welcome back to another episode of Life Uncut. I'm Laura.
Brittany Hockley· Host0:13
I'm Brittnee, and this is Ask Uncut, where we answer your deep, your dark, your burning questions. And I don't wanna rub this in too much for you guys, Laura and Keish, 'cause you have one more week, but this is officially my last episode before I take my month holiday. And then Laura's gonna take an extra week at the end when I come back with Keisha, but I am not mad about the fact that- [laughs] Keish is just, we're just working you to the bone, baby.
Keeshia Pettit· Panelist0:34
[laughs] Keish is actually not having a holiday. She's gonna run this podcast by herself for four weeks. [laughs] We'll see you back here soon.
Brittany Hockley· Host0:41
Far out. What would happen to your business?
Laura Byrne· Host0:44
Oh. We really cooked the holiday period this year. Like, we're actually only taking two weeks off content. We've got some other bits and pieces dropping throughout the time as well. But Brit needed to take time off during June because that's when Ben's holidays and transfers and all of that stuff's happening, and I need to take holiday in July, 'cause that's when school holidays are. [laughs] So we couldn't make it meet, and so instead we were like, "Keisha, come here."
Brittany Hockley· Host1:06
You know how at school, high school- [laughs] ... when it was, like, a rainy day and your teacher used to wheel that TV, the big box TV [laughs] Is that what you feel like? I'm the rainy day TV. [laughs] [laughs] Don't you remember, I, I know this is a segue, but this is what we were talking about, don't you remember how, like, important you felt when you were sitting in the classroom and you were in, it was, like, primary school, and they had a projector and the lesson
