Cara Delahoyde rants about husband Nathan’s new annoying, school-dad hobby and why he’ll never have a night off from it

SOME hobbies are cooler than others, and as far as Cara Delahoyde-Massey is concerned her husband’s new pastime is pretty annoying.

The 34-year-old appeared on the second series of Love Island and won alongside now husband Nathan Massey, but it hasn’t been all glamour since then.

The couple now have two kids together, Freddie and Delilah, and have well and truly settled into mum and dad life.

Speaking on The School Runway podcast, which she co-hosts with celebrity stylist Bronagh Meere, the former reality star said Nathan recently took his dad energy to another level when he took up a new hobby.

“He’s in a school dads padel group,” she explained in a recent episode.

“They go every week and they can’t ever let each other down because if they let each other down then one of them can’t play.

“It’s this whole thing and it really annoys me,” she added.

The game is sort of like tennis and is played in doubled on a court, but in true dad fashion, Nathan takes the game very seriously, Cara revealed.

But Nathan isn’t the only one in the family who has taken on some unique hobbies, as Cara explained that her kids also take part in their fair share of after school clubs.

Recently her daughter took up a circus after school club.

“She’s now doing hoops and silks and the sling, and she absolutely loves that because she’s so bendy, she’s so good at it,” she explained.

Meanwhile, her son Freddie was into Rugby, she explained, but he “fell out of love with it.”

“I’m one of these mum who if [the kids] say they don’t wanna go, I’ll still make them go for a couple of weeks to make sure,” she added.

The mum busy mum life wasn’t always something Cara saw herself getting so involved in, at least not at first.

Previously revealed that she “spiralled” saying goodbye to her glamorous Love Island life after the birth of her first child.

Cara and Nathan welcomed their first child, Freddie, in 2017, not long after they won the show.

She described him as a “happy mistake”, but said that she was 27 at the time, which she feels was too young to have a child.

“If I had my time again I wouldn’t start having kids until I was 30”, she told the Made By Mammas podcast.

Cara revealed that after becoming pregnant, she began to “spiral”, after learning that she would have to leave her glamorous lifestyle of wearing bikinis behind.

“I felt quite lost for a while”, she said.

Cara said that she had to mute a lot of people on Instagram, as she felt upset seeing pictures of people all glammed up at events.

However, she revealed that one day she had an “epiphany”.

“I thought, why am I trying to compete with all these people because that’s not where I am in my life”, she said.

During her pregnancy with Freddie, now 7, Cara and Nathan split up, as Cara was feeling lonely after moving to Essex, and she said that Nathan didn’t understand her.

However, she said that this was the best thing that ever happened to them.

She said that they had just stayed together for work purposes and had been arguing a lot.

Cara felt that the baby had come to her for a reason, and was determined to keep the baby, even if it meant doing it alone.

However, after a baby scan the pair ended up sleeping together and decided to get back together in secret.

Since then, the couple haven’t looked back, and in 2019 they tied the knot.

A year later in 2020, they welcomed a daughter named Delilah.
