Nicole Williams English on ‘The Girls’, Khloé Kardashian & WAGS Cringe | The Sit

Nicole, who are you and what do you do? My name is Nicole Williams English. I am on reality TV. I'm a mom, a wife, fashion designer, kind of sums it up. Be honest, do you Google yourself? I definitely Google myself a lot, yes. What are you personally obsessed with right now? I am personally obsessed with hot Amazon finds right now. Shopping for less. It's like my thing. I'm obsessed with it. I like stay up till four o'clock in the morning, like a psycho on Amazon. What habit are you actively trying to unlearn? I don't really have bad habits, but I am trying to be nicer in the morning because I'm told that I'm like very grouchy and very not nice in the mornings. And so I guess like waking up and not eating and not having anything to drink and just catering to everybody else. It's something that I need to break, like I need to like focus on me, hydrate, and like take care of myself in the morning so I can be a more friendly person. One thing you're surprisingly bad at? One thing I'm bad at is sports. I'm pretty bad at sports, like, which is funny because my husband's an athlete, so it's like 50-50. Thank you. Have you ever lied during an interview? I'm pretty sure I've lied during an interview, but maybe not like on purpose. Maybe I was like nervous. But yeah, I'm not going to say I didn't, and I don't remember specifics, but I'm just going to go out on a limb and say yes. Have you ever sent a text and immediately regretted it? I've definitely sent texts and regretted it. Most of those would be drunk texts, early hours in the morning, and highly regretted them. Nowadays, you could take the text back if you regret it immediately, but when you're drunk and you sleep and then you wake up, then it's too late. So yes, I've done a lot of those. Do you trust your instincts or logic more? I trust my instincts, always. What are the last three photos in your camera roll? The last three photos in my camera roll are probably my daughter. I take an obscene amount of pictures of her. Most random item in your purse right now? Random item in my purse right now? Funny enough, I took a huge bag, and the only thing in that huge bag is a lip liner, a blotting powder. Oh, there's a big, huge bottle of hairspray in there. That's random, yeah. Because I didn't have a travel size, so it's like this big. First celeb crush? First celeb crush was Devin Sawa. Let's talk about the girls. What's one thing fans are going to be shocked to see? One thing fans would be shocked to see on the girls? Um... How calm I am. I feel like I've been told that it looks like I'm on a propranolol or something because compared to wags, my personality has... Kind of calmed down a little bit, maturity, growth, so yeah I'm a little more like chill. Who surprised you the most while filming? I think Larry surprised me the most while filming because he was just game, he was just down to do it this time and I feel like during WAGS he was a little bit more of an asshole because or came off as an asshole because he just didn't want to do reality TV, but this time around he's a little more like I'm going to do whatever's good for you and This is your thing, so I'm going to support it. And so, yeah, he was down. He was down to do it. So, yeah, I feel like he surprised me the most. What's the hardest part about reality TV? Being vulnerable and just kind of letting everything be as normal as if the cameras weren't there and sharing that with the world. That's the hardest part. How much of the real Nicole are we going to see? I was very vulnerable on the girls and I think that like I shared a decent amount. I probably shared a little too much. Thank you so much. But I think that that's what reality TV is all about. Just like being vulnerable and showing the reality of your life. And so I tried to keep that in mind and not kind of just not hide what I was going through and just kind of just, you know, just air it out to the world. Who brings the most drama and how much drama are we talking? Oh God, why are you doing this to me? Um... I'm just gonna be honest, I don't think anybody brings drama. I think that there are some stronger personalities in our group that could come off like it could create some drama just because of the stronger personalities and it's not me. That's all I'm gonna say. How did you and Khloe Kardashian first become friends? Khloe and I first became friends, oh my God, it's been so long that I can't even remember like what day that was. But I do think it was so many years ago. It was like, oh God, it was Kourtney's birthday. And Courtney and I drank an obscene amount that night and so did Chloe. We had the best time. I think it was at the Nice Guy. And it wasn't the first time I met Chloe, but it was the first time we really bonded. It was just so long ago. We've been in each other's presence and been, like we've been connected for so long because of like kids' birthday parties, sisters', friends' birthday parties, and so we're always at an event together. But I think that it was Courtney's birthday party that we actually like bonded the most years ago. Out of the friend group, who's the hardest to get a text back from? Natalie. Natalie rarely, like I can rarely get a text back from her just because she's so busy doing so many different things and wearing so many hats. And she has a daughter, which I can relate to because like you might not get a text back from me. Actually, can I say myself? Like you might not get a text back from me ever. Like I am the absolute worst. And I think Natalie's second. What's the wildest assumption people make when they meet you? The wildest assumption? People say like I am Like, I will go out and I'll be in a grocery store or I'll be at Target and then I'll get DMs like, oh my God, I saw you today and you look so pretty, but I was so afraid to talk to you. And I think that people think that I'm not approachable, but I am literally the most approachable. Like if you come up to me and you're like, hi, I will probably hug you. And I think that people don't really know that about me. And I hope that they learn that about me because I'm so nice, overly nice and probably too nice. But yeah, I think that People maybe are a little bit afraid to approach me, but I'm very approachable. What's something nobody warned you about becoming a mom? Oh, I did a lot of research when I was pregnant and I learned that like, you'll never sleep again. But I would laugh that off because I'm like, yeah, right. I'm a great sleeper. I love sleep. But yeah, the sleep becomes you're a little sleep deprived at the beginning a lot. I mean, I was very sleep deprived, but I think that it's the hardest job in the entire world. The entire world. Sorry, Margot. She's pregnant. She's pregnant. Yeah. And nobody prepares you for that. It is the hardest thing on the entire planet. Like every day, it is the world's biggest job. Very amazing, but very, very freaking hard. And nobody told me that they just said, Oh, it's so rewarding. And yeah, it's a lot of work, but like so rewarding. And I'm just like, okay, where's, okay. Yeah. It's tough. It's a really, really tough job. What's one thing you refuse to sacrifice now that you're a mom? Oh! Sacrifice and me, oh my God. I feel like I do hardly anything for myself, but I'm trying to do better about having a brain break and having some time for myself and not doing everything. My daughter is obsessed with me, okay? I can't get a shower without her getting in the shower with me. I can't have a minute. And so I'm trying to do better now with, like, taking time for me, whether that's, like, having somebody help me just for 10 minutes so I can go upstairs and just have, like, a brain break. Just one brain break a day, it changes the game. What's something you swore you would never do as a mom that you do now? I swore that I would never let my kid be on the iPad every day. And the first thing I do as soon as I open my eyes is throw the iPad at her. Kid, I want to have, like, my tea in peace. Peace. And... I tell her though, no YouTube in the morning, you can play games. I put like learning games on there, so it's like homeschooling. Um, so I feel like it's doing like its job, like I feel like it's good, right? And um, so she does her little games on the iPad. But like I swore like I would never need the iPad, but let me tell you, you need a freaking iPad. If you're pregnant, go buy an iPad right now because you're gonna need it. You're gonna need it. What's one lesson you hope she learns earlier than you did? I hope that she learns that she is enough because I never learned that early enough. And I think that I was always trying to keep up with everything, everybody else, especially with the career path that I decided to go on. I felt like I was never truly confident in myself. I was confident in the fact that I knew what I wanted and I would do anything for it. But I feel like as I grew up, and got older and learn more about myself that like looking back I was never really confident in my own skin and so I hope that and I know that because she's already showing me signs that she just thinks she's the most amazing thing on this planet and I want her to know that and that's okay so she's yeah I just want her to know that she's enough and that she's she can be confident in anything that she does. Is there a moment from WAGS you wish you could erase? Yeah there's quite a few actually. One thing that stands out is Almost ruining my engagement. I would erase that. Although we can look back and laugh now, but it was not very funny while it was happening. It's happening. So the scene, the whole scene where I was calling every single hotel in Las Vegas to look for him because he disappeared for 24 hours because there was no Wi-Fi on the plane. In my defense, that's why it ended up happening that way. And nobody really kind of took that into consideration. They just thought I was crazy. I would take out, I would take that back because I feel like I should have just trusted him and I feel like I ruined that moment for him. Sorry, Larry. Have you ever created drama because you knew the cameras needed something? No, I'm actually like really against creating drama. That's like the opposite of me. And so I may have like drank a little bit more because I knew that they needed more from me and jumped in a few pools and, and did more of that. But that's just like me because I, you know, I like to have fun. And if they tell me like, we need to amp this up, I'll be like, okay, give me a shot. So yeah, I will do that. But creating drama is not really my vibe. What was your reaction when you found out you landed the 2026 cover? Oh my God, my reaction. Well, everybody could see my reaction because everybody found out when I found out, I mean, We filmed it for one of the episodes for the girls. They surprised me at my house right in the middle of a scene. Scene. Um... It was just, I actually couldn't believe what was happening. I knew it in the back of my mind what was happening but I didn't want to act like I knew because I wasn't sure what was happening like I just saw like the whole Sports Illustrated team come in with these big posters and at first I didn't even see my cover I just saw all my old pictures so I was like what's happening and then I saw like on like a little iPad there was like a cover and I didn't know I was like please don't make is it I didn't even know I was like trying to like think like you know when they say your life flashes before your eyes I literally thought like Is this a prank? Is this a joke? Is it just for the show? Like what's happening here? So I was really, really like confused, but really excited at the same time. I had a lot of emotions going on, like a lot. It was best day of my life. Who was the first person you called and did you cry tears of joy? I feel like I was going to call my mom first, but my mom had just gotten off a plane and she was already on her way to my house. I'm like, let me just surprise her in person, which they didn't put on the show. Um, but, um, after my mom, I called my best friend. I called my best friend, Tammy. And I told her, and, um, then I called my dad. Yeah. What would younger Nicole think of seeing you on the cover? Younger Nicole would like ---- her pants. She would not believe that This happened because I feel like there was a lot of no's when I was a young model and I got used to hearing no, but that didn't deteriorate. That didn't like, I feel like that didn't do anything, but make me like knock harder on all the doors. So I feel like hearing no's can go two ways. It could either discourage you or like make you keep trying. And it really made me keep trying. And so I just got so used to trying that. I didn't think When it actually happens, you're like, wait, what? It worked? So I feel like younger Nicole would just be like, holy ----, it worked. Holy ----, you're there. Like, that's crazy. Would you rather have your group chat leaked or your camera roll leaked? I would rather have my camera roll leaked. These days, I'm a mom. There ain't nothing on my camera roll these days. Larry wishes, but it's just not happening. Would you rather go on vacation with your ex or your biggest enemy? Um... Oof, um, that's a horrible choice to make because I don't know. I don't want to go on a vacation with either of them. Can Larry be there? Um My biggest enemy. I definitely don't want to go on a vacation with my ex. That's for sure Although I don't know an enemy is terrible, too At least my ex I can like ignore him and like try to get a date for him or something Your enemy is like that's the worst. I don't know. That's a tie. I don't know. I don't want to do either Lose your entire closet or your entire camera roll? Oh, I would lose my entire closet because I feel like you can rebuild material things. My whole camera roll, if I lost any, like, images of my daughter or, like, family moments, I would be, yeah, that would really hurt me. So, yeah, I'll just get a new closet and go shopping more. Be overdressed everywhere or underdressed everywhere? I feel like... Being overdressed everywhere is, I feel like you can never go wrong being overdressed and like walking and walking into a room and owning it. Yeah. Have every text you send read aloud or every Google search revealed? I just think every Google text reveal, every Google search revealed. That's fine. Cause that's other people's opinions. That's fine. Or my Google searches. Oh, mine. Oh God. I'm just trying to think of what I Googled last. Um, I'm screwed either way, I guess. So I would just say my text because some things that I Google are very questionable and might have people looking at me in a whole different light. So yeah, we'll do the text. I'm not a mean person. You can do my text. Find out your friends have a secret group chat without you or find out you're the topic of it. Find out that they had a secret text group without me. That's fine. I feel like nowadays you get left out somehow. So it's fine. I'll get over it. But I don't want to be the topic. That's for sure. Sure, because that is. Not how I roll. We don't talk about friends. So yeah, you can just have a private group chat without me though. Have a wardrobe malfunction on the red carpet or trip in front of everyone. Oh, trip in front of everyone. I feel like trip in front of everyone is fine. Like I do well with embarrassment. Like I can trip and make fun of myself. But a wardrobe malfunction, I feel like that means like your dress is kind of screwed for the rest of the night. So I'd rather not because, you know, nah, I'll trip. Bad hair in every photo or bad lighting in every photo? Oh, bad hair is fine. Whatever. I can fix that in like Facetune. But like bad lighting is no. At my age, you can't have bad lighting. It's all about the good lighting because the skin is where it's at. So yeah, I can. I'll do I'll do like bad hair. That's fine. Most impulsive thing you've ever done? The most impulsive thing that I've ever done? Impulsive. Does it have to be recent or just any time? Well, I did walk up to Larry because I thought he was talking to another girl. Well, he was talking to another girl, and I literally whacked him so hard he almost lost his hearing in his right ear in front of everyone. And I've never, ever, I don't hit, I don't do that, I don't condone violence. But I was enraged that night. And so, yeah, that would have to be it. One conspiracy theory you believe in. I believe that I believe in like aliens and UFOs and the fact that there are something else out there that they're not telling us. Very strong believer in that. So, yeah. One word for your journey so far. What a ride. Oh, one word. Epic. Epic. My journey has been epic. I need to write a book, honestly. Quite literally need to write a book on like my whole journey because it's been crazy. I've lived like nine lives. What do you want the viewers to know? I want viewers to know that, well, I want them to, like, know me. I'm very, like, honest and open about who I am, and I let the whole world in on my life and my family, and I just want them to know that. I just want them to know me. I want them to know the real me because I want to be able to connect with my followers and my fans. And I feel like if you're going to connect, you have to be real. And I feel like I've been doing that. And I think that just building that trust and that bond with whoever's watching is really important to me. What's your rating of this sit? Well... I wasn't even offered a glass of champagne. If you guys are gonna torture me with all these questions, I need to have wine, champagne, or something. I would love to have a drink, so I'm gonna give you guys a nine. Could have been a 10 if I had a little table right here with a little alcohol, but yeah, good nine. Cue the champagne. Can somebody get me a drink now? Anybody?
