Today is a truly special day.
It is an absolute honour to announce I am officially a @countrylifemagazine Frontispiece girl. To follow in the footsteps of so many women, most notably Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II is just so special.
The Frontispiece has appeared in every issue of Country Life since its inception in 1897. For over 115 years, the Frontispiece has become part of both magazine and social history where women are photographed and celebrated to honour their achievements personally and professionally.
I also finally get to share this very special photograph taken by the incredibly talented @dankennedyphoto in my happy place – my garden.
I am wearing @dior .
Thank you so much to the Country Life team for recognising me in this way.
The August issue is out now.
AD Introducing Evergreen - My proudest accomplishment to date!
Though this still feels very surreal to say out loud, I’m so excited that I can finally share that I am publishing my debut book, Evergreen, later this year!
Inspired by the wisdom of the natural world, Evergreen is the essential guide for anyone who is looking to unearth their inner strength and bring more joy and contentment into their everyday.
It speaks the words that I wish my teenage self, my twenties self, and early thirties Lydia could have heard.
It provides the hug that I wish those versions of me could have felt.
And for that reason, I can not wait to share it with you on October 12th - aka. Publication Day!
You can pre-order your copy using the link in my bio or, if you’d like, you can purchase an exclusive signed and dedicated copy via one of my favourite independent bookshops, @jaffe_and_neale in the Cotswolds who have a limited number available for pre-order now.
Let the countdown commence! #EvergreenTheBook @orionspring@orionbooks
I had drafted a long caption of celebration & gratitude but ultimately felt just one word was needed for this …

It was the greatest honour to attend, for the very first time, as a @kingstrust Ambassador at the Trust’s 50th birthday celebration and Awards Ceremony.
What a special and deeply inspiring evening to be part of, and to witness first hand the tangible impact The King’s Trust continues to have on young people across the country and beyond.
Having met @shaunatiffany , The Trusts winner of The Young Change Maker Award, earlier this year at a dinner hosted by @chrissierucker , it felt even more meaningful to see her honoured in the way she so truly deserves. Shauna embodies strength, resilience and kindness, and speaks so powerfully about what is possible with the support of The King’s Trust.
And with more than 1.3million young people helped by The Kings Trust since it began, you truly are changing lives. #KingsTrustCelebration #KingsTrust50
