Stacey Dooley reveals her food guilty pleasures | Dish Podcast | Waitrose

Nick and Angela celebrate Mother’s Day with the delightful Stacey Dooley at Dish HQ!

Journalist, TV presenter, and author, Stacey has spent over a decade telling powerful stories with Stacey Dooley Investigates, earning an MBE along the way. In 2018, she waltzed her way to victory on Strictly Come Dancing, where she also met her now long-term partner, Kevin Clifton. The couple welcomed their daughter, Minnie, in 2023, and Stacey’s latest book, Dear Minnie: Conversations with Remarkable Mothers, is out now.

Sipping on Shirley Temples and snacking on anchovies (plus a few of Stacey’s other favourite salty snacks), Angela plates up the ultimate Mother’s Day-inspired afternoon tea-style spread—featuring a puttanesca puff tart and Martha Collison’s moreish triple cheese scones. The experts at Waitrose pair this with a glass of Masi Campofiorin.

Stacey chats about family life, her three-P food philosophy, and—despite never having met him—her soft spot for Nick’s fiancé, Mesh.
