Winning a television show can change your life overnight. 

For Harleymoon Kemp, that became a reality when she and her brother captured the hearts of viewers on Celebrity Race Across the World. 

In the latest episode of The MarshyCast, Harleymoon joined me to reflect on the experience and everything that's happened since. 

One of the most interesting parts of our conversation centred on watching the series back. While audiences only see the finished programme, contestants often experience it all over again alongside friends and family. Harleymoon spoke about what it was like reliving those moments each week and seeing how viewers connected with the journey. 

Naturally, I also had to ask whether winning the show had changed her life. From new opportunities to increased recognition, it's clear the experience opened plenty of doors. 

But would she do another celebrity reality show? 

That question sparked an interesting conversation about the challenges and rewards of putting yourself in front of millions of viewers. 

Away from television, music remains at the heart of what she does. We talked about her latest single Wash, exploring how songs come together and whether lyrics or melodies tend to arrive first. For songwriters, the answer is rarely straightforward, and Harleymoon offered a fascinating insight into her creative process. 

With summer approaching, we also looked ahead to festival season. Fresh from sharing a stage with Jessie J, Harleymoon reflected on some of her favourite festival memories and revealed where fans can catch her performing over the coming months. 

It's a conversation about music, television, creativity and what happens when life suddenly speeds up.
