You Won’t Believe Which Saturdays Hits Frankie Bridge Secretly HATED

BBG News

Frankie Bridge shared some of her most significant disappointments that occurred during the peak of her popularity, when she was a member of the girl group The Saturdays.

Back in 2007, I found myself rising to stardom as part of a dynamic quintet, including Rochelle Hulmes, Una Healy, Mollie King, and Vanessa White, who collectively came to be known as the band that propelled me into the limelight.

The group came together following their selection among numerous contenders on the TV show S Club Search, which earned them an opening act position for a popular pop band.

In my experience as a lifestyle guru, I found myself sharing some thoughts about my time with the renowned girl group on the Savoy Originals podcast. To be honest, I wasn’t particularly fond of the singles we released during our peak success.

She mentioned that even if you didn’t care for it, the release of that particular song was inevitable, regardless of your personal feelings towards it.

There are some singles that I don’t care for personally, and yet I must continue to promote them on television by saying things like “Purchase this single, it’s the best song ever,” and even perform them, regardless of whether I genuinely enjoy them or not.

‘And that’s fine because some of them you like and some of them you don’t.’

The former singer who now stars on TV disclosed that, despite the band’s tremendous achievements, she hadn’t accumulated sufficient wealth to retire.

Previously, the mother of two mentioned that she often felt as though she was two distinct individuals while participating in the group. She had to put on a more outgoing persona when she was out with the band.

On the “So Wrong, It’s Right” podcast featuring Olivia Attwood, Frankie opened up about experiencing anxiety following her rapid rise to fame as part of S Club Juniors at a young age.

Frankie mentioned that instead of attending a traditional school, they were homeschooled while traveling. They recalled feeling disoriented with time, suggesting they might have been around 15 years old when S Club Juniors ended and the Saturdays began, approximately at age 17.

‘So, it was a little gap and I had a couple of like normal jobs in between.’

She stated: ‘Regardless of your success, people often perceive you as unsuccessful once you step away from the limelight in pop music and television.’

‘I always had stomach aches. Can you remember Pepto Bismol, the medicine, the pink horrible stuff?

‘That would be in my bag every day because I always had a funny tummy, like nervous stomach. 

At nightfall, my breath would become shallow, and I felt a strange discomfort. Reflecting on it now, I believe the unease was anxiety, though I hadn’t recognized it then.

The performer went on to say, “I used to get regular blood tests, and so forth, but nothing was ever discovered. Thankfully, it’s not as it is today, I hope you understand.

‘But I for me, the first time I realized that it was a proper issue was actually in the Saturdays. 

For some time, I’ve found myself arriving home from work, heading directly to bed without desire for dinner, only longing for rest, shedding tears, and drifting off to sleep.

The bed served as a sanctuary for me, unbeknownst to me that it might not have been appropriate. It wasn’t until our tour, during meet-and-greets prior to shows, that I recall standing outside the door to compose myself.

Taking a deep breath and thinking, right, be Frankie from the Saturdays.’

Frankie subsequently expressed that she seemed to have transformed into two distinct individuals, stating, “It’s like there’s this persona others expected me to be, and the true self hiding within.

Despite rising to fame quickly, the Saturdays have been on hiatus since 2014.

As a die-hard fan, I’m saying: “Contrary to some rumors, we didn’t formally split up. There’s always a chance we could resume if either of us wanted to, but I’m not holding my breath for a reunion.

In a heartfelt new video, Frankie shared her struggles with depression, prompting thoughtful responses from listeners on the podcast.

As a passionate champion for mental health awareness, I frequently share my personal experiences on various social platforms.

She’s openly discussed her struggle with the ailment, leading to her hospitalization in 2011 when she hit her lowest point.

However, the TV personality found it challenging since it required her an entire day to finally make it to the gym, as evidenced by her Instagram Story post.

Addressing her encouraging audience, she openly acknowledged that depression has been relentlessly challenging her.

Or,

In front of her sympathetic online community, she candidly disclosed that depression has been incredibly tough on her.

Frankie stated, “I’ve managed to make my way to the gym today after a full day of effort.

‘My depression is absolutely kicking my a**e and I am so over it.’

Frankie, a devoted mother to boys Parker and Carter, pondered over her challenging day, expressing that despite diligently following all the advice given, she found herself feeling drained.

She explained, “Sometimes it seems like you follow instructions to a tee, but it always ends up coming back to you in some way.

As I gazed at the performer, a sense of melancholy seemed to radiate from her. In her own words, she shared her sentiments: “I’m feeling weary of myself, it’s becoming monotonous. It’s almost as if everyone around me must be growing tired of it too.

Despite the fact she felt down, Frankie persevered and dragged herself to her home gym to exercise.

However, I’m present right now, and I plan to put forth my best effort at the gym, as I understand that it will boost my mood significantly.

And thus, spending the entire day lounging and consuming food that doesn’t bring satisfaction, leaves me feeling even more discontented.

Or, I’ve been lazing around all day, eating unfulfilling food, which just deepens my dissatisfaction.

Afterward, Frankie proceeded to disclose her music collection, featuring numerous tracks by Paramore, which she titled as ‘Healing Tunes.’

Overjoyed by my own accomplishment, I penned down later: “Couldn’t be happier that I completed it! Finished up a challenging session at @catjanefitness, followed by an invigorating 5-minute ab workout from @bryonydeery.

Following a strenuous exercise session, Frankie made another appearance on her Stories to share: “It seems that nothing can hinder the effects of a good workout combined with some Paramore tunes.

I can confidently say that I feel significantly improved, and if I hadn’t decided to visit the gym today, I would have undoubtedly criticized myself even more for having an entire day where I could have exercised but chose not to, instead spending the day feeling sorry for myself.

The television host expressed her regret that she hadn’t done it sooner during the day, as it might have led to a more favorable result.

In my own words, I expressed to my supporters, “Things are as they are, but I am grateful for what I’ve accomplished.” I also shared a small piece of advice: “Today may not have been great, but let’s hope for a brighter tomorrow.
