Alex, I wrote you a pretty long letter. I hope you get some time from your heavenly duties to read it.
I want you to know that I understand why you said you were fine when you weren't - I understand 😔
I hope you found freedom from the unimaginable sadness that embraced your happy soul.
The reason so many people have so many personal stories about you is because of who you were. On and off screen you were thesame Alex everywhere. Joyful, endearing, funny, kind and every wonderful thing in between.
These tears will flow for the memories we will no longer be able to make but I hope your loved ones find solace in the outpouring of love and affection for you the world over.
Rest in peace my dearest friend Alex.
It’s not goodbye but see you later.
With love, Franka xxx
When it's Mother's Day but more importantly your birthday too 🎉💐😂😳🌼😭😭🎁🎂🌸🎊💜💕🌺.
I love this life I have and want so much more of it🙏🏾💕💜🌺.
Happy Birth and mothers day to me!!!
Menopause was something I associated with my mother’s generation, whispered conversations and “older women problems.” So imagine my shock when someone mentioned perimenopause to me.
Suddenly, my explore page became a nonstop stream of reels, think pieces and symptom breakdowns. One minute it didn’t exist in my vocabulary, the next it was all the algorithm wanted to feed me.
But honestly… when did this become a thing nobody prepared us for? Scan QR Code or Follow link to read more on my reflections about this growing trend and conversation.

Over 13,000 women. Most of them in their 20s. And a decision that should never have been theirs to make in the first place. This is happening quietly, in fields that feed an industry most of us never think twice about. The details are uncomfortable. They’re supposed to be.

It's Italian for this year's May Bank Holiday Weekend 😁. There was no sun but we're still cool or hot as ever.
P. S What can you say to someone trying to include you in things you don't care to engage with. Leave me the Fxck alone 🤣🙄
Hard work isn’t always enough. This piece breaks down how self-silencing and visibility politics in the workplace can leave capable professionals overlooked - and why the system often rewards those who speak, not just those who deliver.

Not because you’re cutting people off for sport, but because chronic stress is one of the most consistent predictors of poor health. Relationships that drain you-constant tension, obligation, emotional imbalance-keep your nervous system in a low-level state of stress.
And over time, that shows up physically:
Elevated cortisol
Poor sleep
Anxiety and emotional fatigue
Even increased risk of heart disease
So when you step back-quietly, without drama-you’re not being cold. You’re regulating your environment. No shouting match, no longer messages just well wishes from the distance.
For my fellow NOCTURNAL Beings😜😁
Congratulations to Abu and the @modemenmag team.
Thanks to @jullietmorgan for the plug- my guy!
OK, good night or maybe morning loves!
