Olivia's povMe and less are doing our lionesses down under episode with Jill and Kyle today.
They wanted both of us to do one and to also bring Lottie and Maisie with us.
————————
"Jill, you've got to be quiet in this episode. I know it's going to be hard for you, but you don't want to wake them up." Kyle whispers to Jill.
"Why? Has Lauren Hemp fallen asleep in the studio again?" Jill jokes. There was an incident where Lauren had come to see the studio and had sat on a bean bag and had fallen asleep. After an hours search looking for her, someone finally found her fast asleep.
"No, jilly. We've got the two mini lionesses in today. Look, they're fast asleep over there."
The camera turns to us and me and less smile. Less had Maisie who was asleep on her, whilst I had Lottie asleep in my arms.
"This is lionesses down under." I begin
"Connected by EE." Less finishes
A short intro video plays and me and less get comfy in the sofa.
I move Lottie so she's laying on my chest and I move so I'm more leant into lessi's side.
"Hello, and welcome back to lionesses down under connected by EE. We have all four Russo's in the house. Including, the latest two. How are you doing you two?" Jill introduces and the camera faces us.
"Yeah, we're all good. Me and liv are buzzing to be here." Less says
"It's great to have all four of you in the studio. We will be of course, talking about the tournament, talking about the match against Haiti, and of course, the newest members of your family. And for the people watching at home, you can get in touch with us using the #lionessesdownunder. If you've got any questions for less and liv, any messages of support as well, please send them in. We'd love to hear from you." Kyle explains
"Like Kyle said, we've got lots to catch up on. First of all, the tournament so far. How's Australia been? Enjoying it?" Jill asks
"It's been amazing. I mean it's gorgeous here. I don't think I'll want to go back to England after all this." I laugh
"Yeah, it's amazing here. The weather is just perfect, and so is everything else. The whole team is loving it here. We've gone on a few day trips out to see landmarks and the country. But yeah, we're buzzing to be in Australia and everyone's just living their best life." Less states
"Now, it's 48 hours away from the match against Denmark. Are you ready for the match? How's preparation going?" Jill questions
"Yeah, good. Buzzing. Training was good today. Match day minus one and then straight into it." Less smiles and rubs maisie's back as she starts to stir.
"How about all the other girls in the squad? Cause you said training was good. You guys are obviously training hard. I mean look at the face right there." Kyle points out as a picture of less training comes up on the tv. We laugh, quietly, at lessi's training face. "You look like you're having fun at the same time, when you are training."
"Yeah, I think that's what's so nice about these kinds of camps. Obviously it's so important to prep properly on the pitch and in the meeting rooms but we can really switch off..." less begins but is cut off
"Look at the weights." Kyle says as a video of less training with weights comes on.
"Look at the tiny weights." I tease less and we laugh.
