Take one look at Zoe Foster Blake’s Instagram and you’d be forgiven for thinking she has it all: a funnyman husband, a gorgeous chubby-cheeked son and a thriving career as an author/beauty guru/founder of Go-To skin care. (Sidenote: let’s be honest, the woman also has style.)

From the outset, it all looks… perfect.

In fact, even Foster Blake thinks it looks too good to be true. “It seems perfect because we choose what we portray,” she told the ABC.

“Having said that, I do feel very blessed. I feel so lucky and so grateful that I often think, ‘this is all too good, something’s gotta give’. That’s that twisted human condition where you go, ‘well, this isn’t going to last forever’.”

“And then I flip it again and go, ‘no, no, you’re allowed to be happy. You’re allowed to work hard and have good things and do good things’.”

The ABC interviews comes after Zoe recorded a podcast about how she and Hamish sometimes sleep in separate beds.  “I engineered it so my husband was in the spare room. We’re both pretty tired at the moment and exhausted, and he tends to snore when he does that. So I kicked him out knowing that I’d need my brain today,” she said

So there you have it. Turns out, Zoe and Hamish are mere mortals, just like the rest of us. Having said that, it sounds like life is pretty good in the Foster Blake household.
