Tanya Hennessy: The Christmas Baby Story That Started Here

By the time you’re listening to this, Tanya Hennessy will have welcomed her baby girl. So this conversation now lands in a very different chapter of her life. Tanya has never shied away from letting us into her world. Behind the jokes and the videos that rack up millions of views, she has been open about living with endometriosis, navigating fertility treatment, and the long stretch of heartbreak that came with desperately wanting a baby. In this episode of No Filter, Tanya sits down with Kate Langbroek to talk about the road that led her here. She reflects on the years of uncertainty, the emotional toll of trying to conceive, and what it was like to finally reach a moment she once worried might never come. In this conversation, you’ll hear about: Living publicly through infertility and endometriosis The fear, hope and vulnerability that shaped Tanya’s fertility journey What it meant to finally share her pregnancy after so many setbacks How humour helped her survive some of the hardest years of her life Funny, emotional and deeply honest, this is Tanya Hennessy in full voice—open, unfiltered, and profoundly human.
