About this listen

Can you imagine building a life with someone you had barely met? Idris & Sabrina sit down with Nadiya Hussain – the breakout star of The Great British Bake Off – and her husband Abdal to talk about living in an arranged marriage and how that marriage had to change when Nadiya entered the public eye.

Coupledom discusses mature themes and in this episode there is a reference to sexual abuse which some listeners may find upsetting. Listener discretion is advised. If any of the themes in this conversation have affected you, then there are links to organisations that may help you.

Really lovely episode. Heartwarming is an overused word but that's what this is. Very charming and a gorgeous story of building, growing and sustaining a modern, loving relationship in a very conventional culture.

Lovely episode...very touching and really charming
