Peter Crouch: "Abbey Thought I Was Dead!" 😂

On today’s episode of The Therapy Crouch, the gang are still living their best lives in sunny Portugal — but it’s not all cocktails and calm seas. Abbey spirals into her biggest dilemma yet: how on earth to plan her 40th birthday when every idea feels wrong? Between kitchen renovations, skipped parties, and Peter’s “whatever I do will be wrong” defeatism, tensions are high (and hilarious).Ross chimes in with holiday dreams and more chaos ensues as they unpack why every marriage argument somehow ends with builders, bags, or birthday parties. Listeners write in with tales of Fitbit-fuelled competition, friendship ghosting, and family heartbreak — including one letter that has Abbey on the verge of tears.Of course, there’s laughter too — from Peter’s golf obsession and dream bench, to Abbey’s life-changing fashion advice that proves every mum can still feel sensational.
