They became besties over their love for 7/8/9/10am Mimosa’s at the swim-up bar in Mexico. Renamed as Mimosa Moodee, she is the wild, adventurous one who Hayley can never, ever, say no to and safe to say is her most favourite Thai ‘dish’ in the world!
Casey (Suitkase)
Hayley’s younger (wild, altruistic) little sister. Many a trip full of uncontrollable laughter and always getting the wrong end of each other’s stories. Hayley is glad that she didn’t end up killing Casey after school that day when Casey stole her brand-new orange Fila jumper, only to be caught by one of Hayleys spies. Long live the little sister.
Chloe (Cluffy)
Chloe brightened up a lonely lockdown night and attended Hayleys solo daiquiri party. Several bottles of prosecco later and copious amounts of fairy liquid in the paddling pool, Chloe ordered a McDonalds to feed the 5,000…. To the wrong address! They have been inseparable ever since!
Rebecca (Nashers)
Star-crossed friends from different sides of Leicester, met on a night out at Tiger Tiger in Leeds, where Hayley discovered that Becca had been a part of her life for years and had known the Shearers growing up. Destined to be the best of friends from the beginning!
Edel (Eeeeedl)
They met at university during a heavy night at Bidi Bondi’s, Hayley got her shoe stuck in the revolving dance floor whilst Edel took advantage of the ten pounds all you can drink cocktails! Unbeknownst to them, this behaviour would continue in Dubai for years to come. When they get together, their night always ends with the sunrise!
Joanne (ST)
Met Hayley when she was a little red-headed baby, probably knows more about Hayley than she would ever share! Over the years Hayley has stolen years from Jo’s Holiday bucket list and reeled her back in, time after time, to visit her in Dubai! She is the only one Hayley will sing Celine Dion with on repeat in a champagne bath followed by a 5am gym session!
Kelly (Binxy)
The queen mother of all sisters who Hayley looks up to, gives the best massages, is the most amazing with words and always encouraging and seeing the best in Hayley… even there to cheer her up when she dresses for dinner like she is about to take Hayley on the back of her motorbike down the M1.
Niamh (Choc Splodge)
Hayley’s baby sister, the most generous and kind, with the purest of hearts. Full of life and stories to tell to keep us all guessing! Holds a special place in Hayleys heart, being the baby, she may get away with murder, but who can ever say no to this gorgeous face!
Stephanie (Tatty)
Born within consecutive years, Steph and Hayley relish the finer things…. The only one that Hayley will spend all-inclusive romantic trips with to the Maldives where they discovered their fondness for Taittinger. Canoeing and capsizing in the Seychelles and trips to France where they spend their time sipping on champagne whilst watching multiple seasons of the Guilded Age.
Meet the Groomsman
Sunny Rai
I’ve got lots of names for this chap…but this indeed is his actual name. Part of the Myton School survivors club, my biggest competitor with the biggest brain, friends for 24 years and counting, see you on the tennis court.
James Etches
The face from UWE…who rekindled their International Relations in Dubai as well as influenced eastern European alliances, they now both share great taste in jazzy outfits and chinos.
Matt Wells
C.O.B a founding member of PNOT who realised on a school trip to Dorset that the lad from the study room had great taste in trance and went on to debut together at Rios nightclub aged 16. High Five.
Andrew Mackenzie
Here he comes to wreck the day! Quite the contrary…Mr Mackenzie, despite meeting for the first time dressed as ninja turtles, is still an OG Dubai friend who will always be there to accompany me to Mordor, we’ll just be going by Helicopter and in black tie.
Josh Pegram
ITSSS TIME! Unknowingly met each other before Hayley, Rich was behind the decks at a house party where Josh is always on hand to encourage hitting the deck, after multiple pints. A fellow rock lover and we’re not talking asbestos, bring on the next UFC, Murica.
Sam Doherty
The brother from another mother, the name on the back of the shirt might be different but a great signing for the fam and not looking to sell. We may have moved on from FIFA and COD to vintage footy shirts and poor gym chat over a couple of mega pints but there’s no forced cousinship here, looking forward to the next season.
Meet the MCs
MJ & Matt
The Edi and Patsy to our Hinge and Bracket. Two more peas in our pod of four. Always at the ready with their wining and whining....and dining. We know they had their eyes set on a present but instead they got us round their house 3 times a week. We owe you guys the world for doing this….but hopefully a roast dinner will do.
