Keep It Private is the podcast where absolutely nothing is kept private. Your bestie Millie T is spilling everything that she swore she'd never tell the internet... Dating, cosmetics, celebrity encounters - nothing is off limits. New episodes every Wednesday.

On this episode of Keep It Private, Millie is keeping things casual — prosecco in hand, new puppy Mercury on her lap — and finally answering the question everyone's been asking: why has she gone quiet on her main YouTube channel (for TWO years!)?

The honest answer? It's complicated. She takes us right back to the beginning — posting gymnastics videos at 12, the viral eBay prom dress era at 17, flying to the Bronx to get Cardi B's nail tech to do her nails. For years, YouTube was her whole world and she was a machine. Then TikTok happened. Then Instagram. Then Snapchat, where she posts a hundred times a day.

But it goes deeper than just getting stretched thin across platforms. Losing her mum completely shifted her identity — and she couldn't figure out what kind of YouTube videos the new version of herself would even make... Rather than show up halfway and churn out content that didn't feel right, she chose to wait until it all aligned again. Whether that was the right call, she genuinely doesn't know.

The silver lining? Mercury. A twelve-week-old puppy who's somehow managed to do what two years couldn't — add structure, routine, and a sense of grounding back into her life. And with that, maybe a spark of something new.

She's not gone. YouTube is still home - with new episodes of Keep It Private on the way.
