Summary
Sunday Times best seller.
Where is ‘happily ever after’? And what do you do once you get there?
Maybe you’ve just had a first date with ‘the one’, maybe you’ve been married for 10 years. Either way, it’s hard to know if they’re really meant to be by your side until you both wear dentures. In Where's My Happy Ending? Anna Whitehouse and Matt Farquharson, authors of the Sunday Times best seller Parenting the Sh*t Out of Life, set out to discover what it takes to make it to forever, by asking our greatest questions about love.
They ask a former sex worker and her ex-gigolo husband, celibate monks and free-loving hippies. They ask people who never wanted kids and people who have loads of them. They ask porn makers and feminist academics, neurologists, psychologists and romance novelists. They ask a whelk fisherman and a lollipop lady. They speak to couples, throuples and singles; gay, straight and anywhere in between.
And in asking these questions, they are forced to confront their own relationship after a decade of marriage. Through tears, laughter and one improperly discarded toenail clipping, Where’s My Happy Ending? gets answers for anyone who’s ever wondered ‘what’s next?’ Join Anna and Matt on a searingly honest, belly-laugh inducing journey through love and relationships, social media and small children, expert advice and everyday exasperation, as they navigate the muddy waters of modern romance.
Discover whether love and relationships could be simpler or more complex than we think in this study on what it really means to find and keep love today.
This audiobook includes an exclusive conversation between the authors, Anna Whitehouse and Matt Farquharson.

Ammunition for life!
I feel armed, informed and heartened having listened to Anna & Matt’s honest and clever take on love and happiness.
It was a bit of a slog for me personally to get through the Tinder & porn sections but possibly useful to others living in a more modern society (not half way up a foreign mountain!) But well rewarded by the ending! Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Engaging listen with a brutal yet comforting insight into others happy ending.
Absolutely love listening to Anna and Matt and their honest account and findings on love, life marriage, kids and chaos. We indeed spend our lives with an inherent belief in Happy every after, it is comforting to know not many people live in a fairy tale. And my take/mistakes/general inept attempt at life isn’t all that dissimilar to many others. Well worth a listen/read.

Pukka perfect
Anna and Matt you wrote & read this beautifully. Obvs.
Followed you since the high chair videos days and loved your first book. But “Where’s My Happy Ending?” was summink else.
I’ve been with my husband since we were 16 (2001) and got married in 2007. I sobbed listening to your book in the car on the school run (post drop off, not while the kids were in the car!) and also laughed hysterically at the normal bits of a relationship.
The people you interviewed were ace and it was interesting to hear some varied views on life and love. I love Anna’s mum and dad and the whelk man (who knew it’d make me want to visit Whitstable?) and the lollipop lady.
And my take away from your book is to ask ourselves that question - when I’m infuriated by the shitpile on the stairs or the gathering of pint glasses on the bedside table- “what does love need?”
I also loved the Audiobook Extra. What a nice treat at the end of a cracking book.
Cheers you lovely human beans.

Brilliant - informative, entertaining and thought-provoking
A brilliant analysis of love and relationships, and a wonderfully realistic portrayal of what ‘happily ever after’ might really look like. I loved it!

Loved this. A must listen
I really loved this, one of the best audio books i’ve listened too as the narration gets the humour across on what can be sometimes difficult topics. It was so open, brave, insightful and really helpful for anyone trying to understand long-term relationships. The final extra bit cracked me up to re Jason and Kylie reference! Thank you Anna and Matt for putting yourself out there for this book.

A very funny listen with some pretty serious topics
As a single man in his 30s, that’s spent at least the last 15 years asking the question, this book explores different facets of what would make up that happy ending from many different perspectives. The style of writing (and obviously reading) is incredible and unlike anything I’ve listened to before.
I thought the takeaways might be quite limited for a single man, but there were definitely a few things that I’ll be mindful of in future relationships.
Overall, it’s clever and insightful and will be recommended to many a friend in an LTR or marriage.
