“Yes, I could probably do with spraying them all over with positive energy. Although I think some of them are going to need a bucket of it,” joked Tanya about her co-stars needed some of her positivty spray due to all drama going on the ITVBe hit reality series. “But I have to tell you, the rows only get worse. Unfortunately when you see the girls every day it’s hard not to get tangled up in it all.”
While the drama on The Real Housewives of Cheshire has been pretty intense on the current season, Tanya’s store is all about positivity - and her mantra of “turning dreams into reality”.
Tanya teamed up with Cheshire entrepreneur Stephanie Ledigo in launching the Tanya Bardo Boutique on Grove Street in Wilmslow.
Fans will see the glitzy launch event, attended by Tanya’s fellow housewives, featured at the finale of the show, towards the end of May on ITVBe.
“I’ve always wanted to do this, and when this shop came up it was such a prime local site,” she told Manchester Evening News. “I want to help others to make their dreams become a reality and that’s what the store is all about.”
“The pebble comes from when I had literally no money, I used to carry a pebble around and rub it to remember to always be grateful for what I had,” she says.
The shop is decorated whites and creams, with a green turf like carpet and rather splendid white thrones, and bold Bardo lettering.
The boutique is open from 9am to 5pm Monday to Saturday, and 12-4pm on Sundays.
