No, I get that. I mean, we couldn't really avoid it here in the UK. If we were outside, we were splashing in puddles since we had so many. I will happily guide you though the puddle jumping at Glastonbury. I promise we will start small. We were in Boston for it, which was so much fun. Then my boyfriend and I flew to Vegas to extend the celebrations.

i really want to spend at least one rain season somewhere while levi's small. i want him to splash in all the puddles and get all those experiences which i never had. maybe i'll try talking luke into moving to new york for a bit, since that was my home for so many years. are you going to glastonbury this year or is work keeping you away? the 1975 is headlining and i've never seen them live, i would honestly kill t be there this time around.

You absolute goddess of all things beautiful and magical, I miss your face. And I miss Levi! Lennox has been wandering around like a tiny detective trying to figure out where her best buddy went. I’m heading back to the US soon for a couple months of work, so let’s please carve out some proper catch-up time. In the meantime, how’s everything, mama? What have I missed? Fill me in on all the life updates, big, small, messy, magical, I want it all. / @haileyxrhode

oh gosh, you're going to make me blush now. our babies are getting so big and we must get them together soon. lennox is levi's first girlfriend, after all. where are you going to be based in the US? i'll be in LA for most of the summer, save for a few weeks that we're going to be spending in australia with luke's family. i would love to see you both. is sam coming around too? life has been so hectic, i swear. between rhode getting acquired by e.l.f beauty, it's been all-hands on deck over here. how're you, gorgeous? aside from living everyone's dream life on the materialist press tour, hah.

you look so fucking good today that it's going to be impossible to keep my hands to myself. don't know how you manage to hit the mark every single time with these fancy events but you do and i'm dumb impressed. wanna get a drink? maybe go for a twirl on the dancefloor a couple times? / @haileyxrhode

can i just say, i'm very happy you did not in fact keep your hands to yourself. i can't come to a fancy event and not wear the nicest dress i've got, i'm not built to half-ass it, but very glad to hear you approve. i think i hit the bar too hard tbh. i'm paying for those three martinis today. how're you feeling, babes?

It is just like that. Show us a muddly puddle and it's like you are six years old again. Nope, but it is a British festival meaning most people will be too drunk to care. I get it. I am the same. I have been, it is amazing. I love getting to celebrate the movies here. Have you been before?

i was such a strange child. you could never get me into any puddle and i would rather sit inside with a book or do ballet exercises. i've probably missed out, and should try puddle jumping at glastonbury one year. i've been to cannes twice but it was years ago. i would love to go again, there's no event quite like it. i saw it was your birthday recently, how did you celebrate?

over time you just have to start letting it go and roll off your back because no matter what someone is going to talk. i guess because we were the angel girl group and that was so out of character. yeah i rarely see it brought up nowadays which is good.

that's true. however, i'm still post-partum, and these hormones are not a joke. it's a lot harder to let stuff go now, especially when people bring my son into it but i'm trying my best to not let any of it get to me. i think it's stupid to expect any young adult to be an angel 100% of the time. your twenties are for exploring and trying new things anyways.

women are the glue that keeps everything together and after going through childbirth, i'm 100% convinced that the toughest creature on this planet is a woman. sounds like you had the most magical mother's day with your tribe and that's what you deserve. it just takes on even more special meaning when you're a mom yourself. i had such a good day. i got spoiled by my boys and felt so much love. i'm a very lucky girl. you had a very beautiful thing, honoring family with her name. i'm not actually sure. the writing retreat always takes what it takes. usually from a week to a few weeks. they're perfectionists when it comes to their music, hah. i could come for a couple of days?? rhode is launching in sephora in september, so it's all hands on deck rn trying to prepare for the launch. however, i still want all the time with you, gorgeous.

Honestly, it is all part of the fun, and some people actively seek out the mud to jump in, but I promise you don't get as bad as some pictures make it out. I love that, I need to check it out so bad. Oh, I totally get that, it is crazy how much nothing feels as good as your own bed. Perfect, I am already counting down the days!

lmaoo. that's so funny. like little kids will always find the puddle to jump. though, i can't imagine how fun it'll be to stay in a tent when you've just rolled around in mud. i'm clearly too much of a type A person for glastonbury lol. that's a true sign of adulthood - realizing that there's no better place than your own bed. i see you've been in cannes this week, how is it? are you loving it?

How amazing is it that Levi's been on this Earth with us for almost as long as he was inside of you! He's growing so fast and August will be here before we know it –– and I love that he has a birthday so close to our girls. They're already the cutest Virgo besties, I can't wait to see how their friendship grows as they do. But how are you, mama? It's been a minute since we got the chance to properly catch up!

gosh, right? he's almost nine months now and really growing up fast. he's early on all of his milestone and i wouldn't be surprised if he started walking soon. i'm not ready at all for that. i love our virgo gang and we really should do something with all the babies then. throw a little mock-party for all of them. would be so epic. i'm doing great, working on rhode and enjoying the mama life. it really has been months and i don't like it. how're you and aaron? are you in england or in the states now?

It would not be hard to be less muddy than Glasto. Ah, pulling double duty sounds like it would be hard. I am not a mother but I can imagine it would make the partying so much harder. To be honest, as much as I love a good night out, sometimes it is nice to be back home and tucked up in bed before the clock it's stupid o'clock. Seriously? I would love that.

point taken. i've seen the photos from people in the audience absolutely covered in mud and i'm not sure i'm cut out for that. at least in the california heat you can wear your cutest bikini and get a tan while you party it up. rhode has done a pop-up at coachella every year and while it's so fun to go out there to see everyone, i really do start missing my bed around midnight. going out is great but there's no better feeling than collapsing into your own bed at the end of the night. so so satisfying. definitely, we'll have to do it next year for sure.

it honestly makes you feel like you can’t do anything without them trying to compare it to someone else when you are clearly your own person. i’m sorry you had to experience that and i wouldn’t wish that on my worst enemy. yeah they asked me did i really get arrested in the airport that one time and i told them no i didn’t get arrested but i did get a warning. they tend not to pay attention because they know me and that’s not things i like to indulge.

if you're doing really well, they'll still find something wrong with you. it's so exhausting and since i'm a people pleaser, it used to keep me awake at night. now though, i try not to give it a single thought since not about to let anyone disrupt my peace. most young people like to smoke occasionally, so i really don't see why it's still such a big taboo. you didn't really do anything wrong, so they should let it go.
