Luisa Zissman fumes at her friends ‘I don’t want to see you’ after they badger her for leaving drinks ahead of her move to Dubai

by

Luisa Zissman is moving to Dubai with her husband and two of her children – a big change for the whole family!

The 38-year-old podcaster isn’t planning on having a series of farewells with her friends in the UK, and she’s reportedly frustrated with the idea, stating she ‘doesn’t want to see anyone’.

Luisa is spending a vacation in the Maldives before relocating to Dubai later this week. She’ll be joining her husband, Andrew Collins, and their two daughters, Indigo Esme (9) and Clementine (7), along with her five horses, in their new home there.

The former Apprentice contestant shared that her oldest daughter, 15-year-old Dixie, will stay in the UK to complete her schooling at her boarding school. Dixie’s father is her ex-husband, Oliver Zissman.

But before jetting off Luisa confessed she wasn’t keen on long goodbyes.

On her podcast, ‘LuAnna,’ Luisa complained with her friend Anna Williamson about the pressure people feel to meet certain expectations during the holidays.

Honestly, everyone is losing it about the end of the world, but it’s just not true! 2026 is absolutely coming, I promise! It’s driving me crazy seeing all this year-end panic – it’s so stressful! Seriously, people, just calm down! I need everyone to breathe and remember that everything will be okay.

You don’t need to rush and try to see me before I move – I’ll be back often next year. I’m getting a lot of requests to meet up, but it’s not necessary.

Don’t worry about it – there will be opportunities next year. January will be quiet anyway, so relax. If you can’t connect with people in 2025, it’s not the end of the world, as another year will come around quickly.

She described her ideal lifestyle as simple and peaceful, saying she still enjoys spending her evenings relaxing at home. This includes going to bed early, having quiet time to herself, and crocheting comfortably in bed.

I’m really not up for going out for drinks right now, even though it’s December. Honestly, I don’t care that we haven’t seen each other in a long time.

Anna, who recently threw a ‘Priscilla Queen of the Desert’ themed party for Luisa’s move, playfully agreed with her friend, saying the studio audience seemed to really love her performance – like she’d gotten a standing ovation.

Earlier in the show, Luisa said she doesn’t hesitate to end relationships with people she no longer wants in her life.

I wouldn’t say I’m very spiritual, but I strongly believe that the energy of the people around you and what you let into your life has a huge impact on your well-being.

I’m very careful about who I let into my life. If someone brings negative energy or seems disingenuous, I don’t hesitate to distance myself from them immediately.

On the latest episode of her podcast, LuAnna, Luisa let fans know the show wasn’t going anywhere, even though she’s moving. She promised to travel back frequently to continue co-hosting the weekly episodes in person.

‘I have flights booked to do LuAnna up until September,’ she explained. ‘So, please don’t worry, it’s continuing after September. I just felt like block booking.’

The reality TV star previously shared that she moved her family to the UAE because she was unhappy with the weather and increasing crime in the UK.

Last week, Luisa shared a photo of herself in a yellow bikini and announced she’s moving from the UK to Dubai. She says leaving what she described as a ‘miserable’ situation will improve her life financially and overall, promising a better lifestyle.

I was so excited to hear that Kate and Rio Ferdinand are moving to Dubai! It turns out we’ll be neighbors, which is amazing. She was just telling me all about it and seemed thrilled with the move, just like we were when we came here earlier this year.

Luisa recently shared details about her challenging relocation to the UAE, which involved moving five horses and two nannies with her family to Dubai.

Luisa recently shared that their move to Dubai has been incredibly hectic. Between finding schools for the kids, relocating five horses (which she found the most stressful!), packing and shipping everything, and getting visas for their two nannies who are joining them, it’s been a whirlwind!

We’re taking a week to unwind in the Maldives before moving to our new home in Dubai. We’re really excited about starting this new adventure!

Just a quick update on a couple of questions I’ve been receiving: My podcast with Anna Williamson, LuAnna, will continue as usual. And my mum isn’t moving in with us, but she’s already booked several flights to come and visit!

We’ve decided to make Champneys our permanent home. It’s not just for the winter – we plan to stay here for the foreseeable future. Goodbye for now, England!

Luisa’s large home has ten bedrooms and sits on 2.8 acres of land. She hires a team of 15 people – including gardeners, housekeepers, nannies, and a manager – to maintain the property and care for her family.
