You've been in fashion shows lately? Congrats! That's incredibly exciting and now I'm sad I missed whatever shows they were. It's definitely not weird to not know what to do when you aren't busy. You get so used to doing it all and then you end up crashing a bit. My actual answer would probably be something like chill on the couch with my kids, but a Noah included answer would be getting lost in a book. While I don't get that much time to read lately, I do love finding some new novel that I can let my imagination go wild with and forget about everything else for a while.

Staying busy has been so good for me. At this point, I don't know what to do when I'm not walking in a fashion show. Is this weird? I guess it's just the excitement of getting a new career opportunity. What's your favorite way to unwind after a busy day or week? I may or may not be taking notes. Noah, the note taker. It has a nice ring to it. @hfrpstarters

If you ever do figure out this whole sleep thing, please send along the knowledge! Congrats on wrapping AND Coachella! Both are big, exciting accomplishments. People better realize how much you put into everything you do! How are you feeling now that the huge buzz from the first weekend has simmered down just a bit? I'm going to attempt going to weekend two! I want to go to support a few people. Things are just a tad hectic in my life at the moment, so we'll see if I'm able to slip away. It's super nice to meet you, Chloe. I'm Natalia and I'm heading to listen to your new single right now because I'm sure it's fantastic and everything I've been needing in life.

Sleep? Don't know her. I just wrapped on the series I was filming and slayed my first solo Coachella set all in the same week. It's been a pretty good one, I'd say. You know you go a little too hard when the earrings fall off two different times in the middle of performing. People can say whatever, but they can't say I don't put my all into it when I'm on stage. Half the time, I get so in the moment I don't even remember what happens until I watch videos back later. Looking forward to doing it all again for the second weekend! Who's gonna be there? Hi, if you don't know me, I'm Chloe. I also have a new single out called Boy Bye. / @hfrpstarters

He's the very best fashion week mate a girl could ask for! From what I've seen and heard, I definitely think you two make a great pair. I actually know something else that I would want to get very excited about, but I don't want to expose anyone or anything. So if you're thinking of something big that you two want to share, just know I might know what you mean! In which case, I'm also very excited about it. He might not want to go that big for himself, but that's exactly what we're here for! How was Coachella? I meant to go that first weekend, but things have been insanely hectic. Going to try shooting for weekend two, but we'll see. I mainly just want to support a few friends. Is this my chance to mention how I'm in the same boat as the rest of the world hoping you guys end up making a sequel?

I am too, so we'll be friends easily, plus I believe you're close with my boyfriend, so I had to come reach out. He does, he picked a good one, but I'd like to say I have good taste picking a man that looks like he was crafted by the gods or something. Me too, the leak didn't make it the most ideal, but we learned to be a bit more careful. We're sharing something else soon as Nicholas is really itching to get it out there. We have to! Show support and especially making him blush because he will. Well, my world is mostly being his arm candy at events, I'm enjoying Coachella and I'll be going to an award show soon to show love for Red, White & Royal Blue.

I already have a few things I think we should discuss the next time something like this rolls around. You know something I never really think of when we're together, but end up struggling with when we're not? Having a bed to myself. At some point, my body just accepted the fact that it was never alone and now I need pillows to curl around in order to even think about sleeping. Would you be able to do that? I don't want you to burn yourself out going from stage show to stage show to filming. I've done a bit of research on it all just from curiosity. The UK's a little easier. We can already register the boys. As long as either parent on the birth certificate is a citizen. It's Mia that'll be a little harder to go the opposite route for the US.

Private: It's hard when we have opposite opinions on it. Though, my heart has me in two different directions on the subject. I felt like it would've been unfair of me. They won't remember this one, thankfully. It may be the last season, but it's my daughter, Tom. Nothing else matters. It may not have been that long, but it's already too long. Everyone else takes their little trips, so I might as well take advantage of it myself.

It's complicated, very much so. More than I want to admit even but we got this, my love. That I can promise you is that we'll get through this and learn from the hiccups along the way. You have full authority to be dramatic about it. I feel like I'm near death just thinking about the time spent away from you. Well, rumor on the street is that Broadway is taking a peak at the show. Maybe a run in New York City? It's not the same state but at least it's the same country. Only a bit longer for you and immediate for them which is a good thing. I can start to look into everything when I have a moment at home again, yeah? Or maybe I can have Harry gloss over the things we need to make it official.

PRIVATE: While I know you wouldn't have minded, it wouldn't have sat right with me knowing you have all three of them. Whether it be on your own or not, that's a great deal to handle when I can help. I'm sure they won't even remember the time that they weren't together for four months. Even then, we'll be sure to take the time we can to get the band back together. I don't want you taking the time either though, Nat. It's the last season of a good portion of your life... enjoy it when you can. I swear that I'll figure out how to make the trips when rehearsals allow me to.

[ delivered to Natalia's trailer on the afternoon of April 17th, 2023 /@thatnattyice ]

My darling Nat,

It's been almost three weeks and I'm still counting down the days until we're back together again. Writing this made me think of years ago when I was trying to figure out if sending you a message and flowers to your hotel while we were traveling was too forward. I nearly had a heart attack then but it's bizarre to see how fast time has flown. It feels like an eternity and just yesterday all at the same time. This time, however, feels a lot harder. 

With Mia here without you and the boys with you, our family doesn't quite feel complete. Even so, I look forward to the weekends in between that we'll be able to visit. It's a countdown until I get to see all my few favorite people once again. Till those weekends coming, keeping busy has been what we're good at and FaceTime calls will be enough for now. I reckon this would be a nice surprise for you on a dreary Wednesday on set. A pick me up? Let's call it that. 

The book is while we're apart. Every month, I'll send print outs for you to add to it. Call it, 'Mia's big adventure while she was away,' or something of the sort. You can keep them for when missing her gets to be a bit too much. I promise never to miss a month of sending them to you. You have my word. 

We love you. We miss you. You're the light of our lives and without you feels a bit dimmer but... only 121 more days. But... who's counting? 

I love you, Nat. We'll see you soon. 

All our love, Tom & Mia

Time is flying by way too quickly and I'm going to need things to slow down, please and thanks. Feels like whenever I blink, the three of them are learning something new and getting bigger. The sleep deprivation is definitely worth it! Especially now that they're at the age where they recognize faces. Nothing beats being super tired, but just staring at the tiniest little faces studying yours. It is, yes! Last season which brings on every sort of emotion. It's been nice being back with everyone though. Plus I'm always so curious about what's going to happen, so I was excited to finally find some things out. A new music plus brand new music is an amazing update! I'm so excited to hear it all whenever you're ready to release. What are you filming in Virginia? Or are you not able to share much yet? Loving being busy is always the best! Though the mom in me has to make sure that you're also taking time for yourself and getting rest!

I swear time just gets away from me these days! Like, what do you mean it’s already April? Time feels like it passes in the blink of an eye, and I bet you know that feeling all too well now that you’re a mom of three. Such a precious age! Lots of restless nights and coffee, I’m sure, but I know it’s all worth it. How’s it going being back on set? It’s the last season, right? I’m sooo not ready to say goodbye to Hawkins. All good over here! Just recently finished filming a new music video, which I’m really excited about, spending lots of time in the studio between working on my debut album and recording for my new role, and then I’ll be headed off to Virginia soon to kick off filming. Busier than ever but absolutely loving every minute of it. | @thatnattyice

Do you find it hard to balance Hollywood and motherhood?

Yes and no? My husband and I had always had the same idea that when we did have a family, we'd be very family focused. So I was able to take those steps back and put more of my focus on Amelia when she was born while Tom filmed more. And then even though I went back to work pretty quickly after the twins, Tom was able to balance me out and spend the time at home with them. Now that it's just me with the twins, it's a little harder, but we're finding a good rhythm!

#( meme: answered. )

[thatnattyice]

It's been hard. We've all seemed to have a quiet understanding that we're not really going to think about it until we get closer to wrapping. Just delaying the inevitable. Amelia's got this whole social butterfly thing going on. I'm pretty sure she's going to take over the world by just becoming friends with everyone she meets. The twins are still a little too young, but they're already showing up little bits of who they'll be. Tom was with me when I first when back the end of January, but last week him and Amelia went back home to London while he does Romeo and Juliet. Our family's in different countries for a while. Those are both exciting updates! What's Hal and Harper about? And I'm sure the movie she directed is going to be amazing.

I am literally counting down the seconds here. I need this season already, but I also know I am going to sob because it's the end. I am not ready for it to be over. It's really such a special feeling seeing our little ones get personalties and become their own person. It makes my heart happy every day that I get to see it from Luna. Is Tom going to come stay with you on set at all? For me the most immediate thing is I have a show called Hal & Harper that is going to be coming out hopefully this year, and Zo actually directed her first movie. That's going to be coming out in August.

I promise you Hawkins didn't cease to exist when Steve went on a trip. Guess they wanna really tire us out so that when everything is all said and done, we'll have aches and pains to forever remember it all. I keep suggesting they just toss Kamryn in considering she's the best fake me out there, but it doesn't work. He knows I don't talk about you in general. Which I think is a fair rule. My mom's in town so I'll be back to set on my own! Feel free to join Charlie and I on our pre-filming coffee chats.

Good to hear. Always just wanting to check in to make sure everything is going smoothly? They really gotta make our stunt doubles do the work with the exhaustion we have. After almost ten years? I think we earned it. Oh, yeah... I mean maybe? Most people think that we're never going to talk to each other so wouldn't be the first time. You want to tell him or should I? Think I'm starting up with the teens next week so... looks like it's you, me, and Charlie again.

Nat: that makes so much more sense then! i've always been more introverted, so while i appreciate and love the fans, that aspect has always made me a little nervous. tom's the social butterfly between the two of us so i can just happily float in the background. i think it's so sweet how much you love the fans! Nat: both sound like amazing choices! sometimes it's just fun to dream up possible vacations. even if you can't get there anytime soon. it's live on youtube? that's so cool for everyone who can't physically be there! how was the first performance?! i'm still planning to come out just because it seems like one of those things everyone should experience at some point. oh, yes, okay! i know them both! are either of them star wars fans or did it just end up being a coincidence? also, very much team may is the best month to get married.

Hwa: honestly, i don't know how i do so either. yeah, i consider myself more extroverted. i'm usually the one who talks to others that i want to be friends with. it can be and a bit exhausting as well. it's all worth it though since i love the reaction the fans give us. Hwa: hmm, probably to somewhere warm like bora bora or even go to countries in europe we haven't been before. they are so i get it. don't get to explore much when i travel for work. already looking forward to it especially since coachella is gonna be live on youtube as well. i'm actually in LA at the moment so i'll be here a bit until after coachella is over. our leader hongjoong and his fiancée diamonté or also known as saweetie. their wedding is may 4th and i already messed with hongjoong about it being star wars day, haha.

Part of me always wished magic was real simply because it could mean people could poof places or fly. I'm sure it's a lot with what you do since you guys go on tour! Going from place to place just automatically means you'll be grabbing a bunch of flights sometimes. It's awesome that your boyfriend is able to keep you in check! We all get lost in our own projects and heads sometimes. Right now, I've been trying to figure out the best balance of filming while also taking care of my three month old twins. When I first got back to work, I was lucky enough to have my husband around, but now he's working too so it feels like I'm back to the beginning at figuring it all out. It's really sweet how excited and supportive you are with your siblings. I'm really hoping my three grow up close! Even though I'm not that close with mine, my husband is super close to his brothers and that's what the kids see most often. So hopefully that'll rub off on them, you know?

We do! It would be so much easier to get places and not have to worry about not making it back to where you need to be on time. I'm sure but it's a good idea. I can imagine. I feel that way myself since we have a few things occurring which will have us traveling again. Hoping for the best is a good way to look at it though. I couldn't agree more. My brain loves to keep me working even though I know I need to stop and focus on something else sometimes. My boyfriend helps me with getting away from work since he knows I tend to neglect things when I'm super focused. I am. My sister travels more than my brother but I am still close to them both. You should! She's done so well and I'm proud of her. Honestly, sibling dynamics are interesting. It's cool to see how others interact with their siblings when younger and when they get older. It happens. I think I'm so close to my siblings due to wanting to be a role model to them and since I would dote on them a lot.

Things have been lovely! They have me running way too much, as usual, but it's all in the name of crazy action. I'm almost surprised Charlie didn't rat me out for being a tiny bit of a workaholic lately, but then again, he might still be thinking our names are blacklisted when talking to the other. Do you know if you're starting back with larger group scenes or are we back to our "teens" bubble?

Just checking to see how set has been. I heard from Charlie that it's been a bit of a stretch of getting some of the scenes completed so... I mean, I'll be back starting next week. Everything been good?

#with:joekeery #what do you mean NOT lol it certainly is

[thatnattyice]

We very rarely had to spend multiple nights apart like this. I don't know how people have done this before us. I know that time will go by and we'll be all together again, but I'm definitely going to be a little dramatic about it. I'd even settle for the same country! Sure, it could be opposite sides, but it wouldn't feel as large as this does. I feel terrible about it and I don't really think that that's something that'll go away or can be prevented. Which is tough. Just need a little less than another year under my belt before I can truly become a citizen. Still not sure about doing that for myself. Though I do see the benefits of making sure the kids have dual citizenship. Just in case.

Private: You know I didn't care if it would've been a lot though. My moms going to be here in a few days, so technically, it wouldn't have been completely on me for long. I guess they're all still young enough to not remember this time, but it makes me at least think of the future. I don't want there to be a time when any of the kids remember months of being separated. We both know I can't really do that. If I do need anything, I'll figure it out on my end. I don't want you taking time when you shouldn't be.

It has been too long, you're right. It's odd being home but not having you home. Or the boys, for that matter. It's going to be a long couple of weeks but it'll be over soon, darling. We just have to keep ourselves busy in the meantime and it'll be here before you know it. If we were closer by, this wouldn't be a problem. We miss you, that's definite. I can tell she misses you and the boys but I dunno if it's sunken in yet for her. You can fully claim the both part, just not necessarily the birth but you're a full Londoner now. I see no difference other than the accent.

PRIVATE: I know it does, my darling. It's awful not having them together and I'm feeling it myself. I know you wanted to keep them together but realistically, it'll be a lot on you. Between filming and taking care of two newborns AND a toddler? That's bound to be a lot on your shoulders and if I can take the heat off it, I will. We'll be with you soon, I swear to you. Just promise me that you'll call if you need anything, yes? I'll be there as soon as I can as long as I know.

I promise I'm the easiest person to become friends with! Plus I already love you considering I trust that your boyfriend has good taste. I'm so happy you guys are able to be open about it. Though I feel terrible that you were forced the way you were. We love a supportive man! I'm one thousand percent with you on that. We'll drive up and down the busiest streets just blasting his music from the car. Put up billboards everywhere! Aside from him, how are you doing? What's been new in Taylor's world?

Well, this was also my way to get to chat with you again and get closer as you're clearly close with my boyfriend. Which is update one, we're out in the public now on that. Otherwise, I've been supporting all his work stuff from interviews, photoshoots, music. Please tell me once he releases music outside of Idea of You and August Moon, like his own again, we can spam it together and make him blush. || @thatnattyice

from florence 🐌: have you got any projects lined up once strange things is done?

Not right now, no! So much of my time (as in over a year!) is being dedicated to the last season, so I want to take a breather once we wrap and focus back on my family for a little. If the right project comes along, this might change, but I do think I need the balance.
