Off The Vine with Kaitlyn Bristowe

#983. Ruby Rose has spent the last several years largely out of the spotlight. Now, she’s ready to talk, and she chose Off the Vine for her first-ever podcast interview.
In a rare and deeply personal conversation, Ruby opens up to Kaitlyn about the life people didn’t see behind the fame, including a childhood that shaped her in ways she’s still unpacking today and the surprising reason acting was never actually part of her plan. She looks back at risking nearly everything to create Break Free, the viral film that ultimately led to Orange Is the New Black, and what it was really like to become one of the most recognizable faces in the world almost overnight.
But at the height of it all, something changed. Ruby gets candid about the experiences that made her step away from Hollywood, what that time away helped her realize about herself, and why Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test became the unexpected project that brought her back in front of the camera, this time with no character to hide behind.
It’s Ruby Rose in a way you haven’t heard her before: funny, incredibly open, and ready to tell her story on her own terms.

#982. Olivia Attwood has made an entire career out of saying the things everyone else is thinking — and Kaitlyn may have found her new British girl crush.
Nearly a decade after Love Island UK, Olivia has gone from giving us “I’m sat” and “dick sand” to becoming one of the UK’s biggest TV personalities… without sanding down any of the personality that got her there in the first place. She and Kaitlyn get into what it actually takes to turn reality TV fame into a real career, the VERY unexpected things Olivia has learned from going inside the worlds of adult entertainment and plastic surgery, and whether bad boyfriends can actually become good ones.
That last one hits a little differently after the year Olivia has had. She gets candid about knowing when it’s finally time to leave, what people didn’t see behind her very public breakup, and falling in love again when the internet had plenty of opinions about her timeline.
And then Kaitlyn gives the professional bad-boyfriend expert a few men of her own to judge in Crack On or Get Mugged Off. Apparently, even the bad-boyfriend expert has a few controversial takes.

#982. Ariana Biermann is on the vine, and she’s finally telling her side of what really went down on Next Gen NYC. After ending the relationship that had defined most of her adult life, Ariana thought she was ready for a fresh start — until one guy felt a little too real, another felt dangerously familiar, and suddenly she found herself in a situation she never saw coming.
Ariana opens up about falling hard for Liam, why him telling her he loved her sent her into a full “crash out,” and the decision she made with Charlie that changed everything. She reveals who actually told Liam about the kiss, what happened after he found out, and why she believes she may have sabotaged something that could have been really good. Plus, she gets into the friendships that shifted behind the scenes, what viewers didn’t get to see, and a much happier chapter: watching Brielle get ready to walk down the aisle.
Part 1 of the Next Gen NYC reunion left us with questions. Before Part 2 drops tomorrow, Ariana is filling in some of the blanks.

#981. How much of parenting your kids is actually about parenting yourself first?
Lauren Magers became a mom in a way she never could have planned — adopting two young boys at 22 and raising four children by 25 — and it completely changed the way she thought about family, discipline, and the kind of humans she wanted to send into the world.
Lauren joins Kaitlyn for a conversation that will make you question some of the parenting advice we’ve all been fed. They talk about breaking cycles without overcorrecting, why your own childhood can quietly show up in the way you parent, and whether constantly stepping in to make life easier for your kids may actually be making things harder for them in the long run. Lauren also gets into what she does instead of traditional punishment, how young she believes kids can start learning responsibility, and why the words you use inside your home matter more than you might realize.
And yes, Kaitlyn asks the questions moms are actually wondering — from babies and toddler meltdowns to bribery, boundaries, screen time, losing your patience, and what happens when Mom is the one who needs a minute.
Whether you have kids, want them someday, or are still unpacking how you were raised yourself, this one might have you looking at your family a little differently by the end.

#980. Does grief actually get easier with time… or do you just learn how to live alongside it?
Amanda Kloots is back on Off the Vine for a conversation about the part of grief we don’t talk about enough: what happens years later, when the world has moved on but your relationship with loss is still changing. Amanda opens up about where she is six years after losing her husband Nick, why she no longer believes in being fully “healed,” and the unexpected therapy experience that completely shifted the way she looks at grief.
She and Kaitlyn also talk about what actually helps when someone you love is grieving, why we’re so afraid to talk about the people we’ve lost, and how Elvis is getting to know his dad as he gets older.
Then things get a whole lot lighter with Harry Jowsey. Amanda takes us inside their unexpected friendship, what it was like helping him look for a wife on Netflix’s Let’s Marry Harry, and why losing Nick completely changed what she believes a healthy relationship should feel like.
It’s grief, healing, dating, friendship, a little Harry Jowsey chaos — and a conversation that might change the way you think about loss.
