You know her, you love her. She’s across the pond and making big moves, the one and only Alyssa Thompson joins BFFR. In this episode, we’re getting into everything from LA to London. Alyssa opens up about her big move to Chelsea FC, adjusting to life abroad at just 20 years old, the British slang she’s already picked up (thanks to Love is Blind UK), and why it was the right time to say goodbye to LA and Angel City. We talk TikToks, dream UK celeb encounters, career goals, and rapid fire chaos. We rewind the tape on her rise, what’s kept her grounded, and the advice she’d give her younger self.
