Description

Get ready to vogue, as Charlotte is kicking back with Leighton Rees Milan. Leighton is a Butetown boy from Tiger Bay and the founder of the Welsh Ballroom scene. They reflect on leaving home to pursue your dreams, what it feels like to be ‘the first one’ and the importance of honouring your elders. He’ll also explain why voguing should be an olympic sport.

Charlotte Church hosts a series of intimate conversations about belonging, working class identity and the unbreakable bonds of family.
