MEET MY NEW HORSE (The big reveal)

[@elphick.event.ponies]

Thank you everyone who watched live with me, I hope you enjoyed it!!!

[@eagle9595]

Thanks for being there in chat with us, congrats on the beautiful Wilma!

[@nixcivix]

I actually cried when she came off the lorry!! Brilliantly edited too Meg!!

[@claudiah2845]

We did!

[@teddyyy6784]

Oh my gosh she is amazing Meg!!! So so soooo happy for you, what a dream she is!!

[@Scarlet_eqYT]

She is so so gorgeous ❤

[@Mosheltie]

What a truly stunning horse and so incredibly chilled out, literally walked off the enormous lorry straight into the stable, rolled, didn't even shake the bedding off herself and immediately started eating. Best of luck with her, I hope she fulfills all of your dreams.

[@fishhugify]

Seriously stunning 🤩😍

[@feichannel]

It's so GREAT to meet you, WILMA!! 😍

[@This.is.Ambimane]

Yess!!!

[@Englishcowgirl12]

She’s amazing

[@laurenceboischot4265]

I love how Wilma just walks into the barn and states: "that's it, I'm home." ❤

[@jedsequine1564]

Yep has a roll, grabs a mouthful!

[@lottiecam9046]

The way she just moseyed in, had a roll and a snack just says everything 😂 She knows she is home!

[@elphick.event.ponies]

Can’t wait to watch with you all at 5pm, place your final bets below 👀

[@ottb.harvey]

it HAS to be the 6 yo bay mare!!! if its not, i will be positively surprised

[@HorseySam]

Hoping it’s a grey!

[@Candy_Sage]

It’s the dark bay 👌🏻

[@ninnifs569]

6 yo BAY MARE!!!!! please you guys were perfection

[@ellieheathcote4155]

I'm thinkin it might be the young chestnut, maybe you went back for a second viewing after the owner had a couple days to have a play with her, but then I guess she wouldn't be arriving till around march next year. Everyone seems to have their bets on the bay though 🤔 We'll find out soon enough 😁

[@briannamercedes4016]

I was so hoping you'd come home with her! It was evident how confident you were on her, and she's clearly very talented. Congrats on your gorgeous Wilma

[@aqhagirlxx4306]

The way I genuinely SOBBED because I was so happy it was the bay mare! Oh Meg, the moment I saw you on her, I knew she had to be the one. She's the perfect horse for you, really. She's still young, but she's done a little, and you looked SO CONFIDENT on her. I feel like I just got a new horse myself, because now we'll get to watch you SOAR with her! Welcome home Wilma, the whole crew is so happy it's you!

[@eltanin.amelia]

I KNEW IT. The moment you said confidence giving after your first ride on her, i knew. She's gorgeous, meg. I hope we get to see her second viewing as well!

[@barbarianvee]

Same -- she sounded so happy in the VO of that ride! And everything else about the horse ticked all the boxes. "A no brainer" just like Simon said

[@michellenelson6888]

I'm not a horse expert, but for this horse to be so comfortable after all her travels is simply AMAZING!!?? She appears to be so "lotty dotty" and as though it was no big deal!!!??? I'm stunned, I really thought she'd be a little freaked out!!

[@Squimbelina]

Yaaaaaaay! I’m so happy you chose her! You were an instant team and she really is just such a little beauty. Get you with your half TB! So polite as well, greeting DD without even a squeak and just taking everything in. Didn’t Ardeo send her in immaculate condition too? Perfectly groomed and looking bright even after her journey. Would love to see your second look at her if that was filmed.

[@horsevoyeur7361]

I agree with what's already been said😁

[@magicaltrails]

And that tail! I can't believe it looked like that after a long ride in that huge lorry AND the boat!

[@horsesforlife7630]

❤

[@Jomeikles]

I can already see Meg and Wilma at Badders! Can’t wait to see both of your futures 🎉 Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉

[@mk42997]

So many of us were rooting for this mare! She sure is special!

[@LaurenAllport]

Good choice 🎉 look forward to seeing more of her! Her and the spotty grey mare were my favs ❤

[@foundationfarm]

Oh Meg. I got chills and even a few tears. We all knew she was yours from the first sit. Congratulations, you are so deserving!! ❤🐎

[@sarahcooper3378]

Watching live from Canada..... the obvious choice from the Ireland series......she's beautiful. Those transporters are amazing and that's a pretty fancy rug she came with. Really looking forward to watching her in the future. You are going to have so much fun. Best wishes, enjoy.

[@biggothepiggo]

Huge congrats! I love her. She's stunning. And what a character; just steps off the lorry, settles right in, has a roll and a snack without any drama. Love that! She seems to be the fantastic combo of confident and sweet. And she's a lucky girl to have landed with Hobbit and you! I love how much you two love horses! Can't wait to watch the journey (and can't wait to see how the rest of your crew react to her like, Lucinda, Emily, Cameron etc. I know they will love her too!)!

[@alexphotography9069]

AHHHH YAY!!!!!!!! As a bay mare owner myself, I'm over the moon with you choice lol!!! Im so excited to see what the two of you get up to in the future!

[@VK-qe7if]

She's brown not bay.

[@Shade_Zer0]

​@@VK-qe7ifThere's no such thing as a brown horse...

[@alexphotography9069]

@@VK-qe7if Semantics 😂

[@Charbified]

@@VK-qe7if Except she is bay, brown isn't a horse colour...

[@stephenrawlings5984]

​@@Charbified Brown is a horse colour. If her mane and tail are black then she is Bay. If her mane and tail are brown the same colour as her coat she is brown. Can't tell from pictures which it is.

[@valerieboyce7644]

OMG, how did you not jump up and down as the lorry approached your drive. What a gorgeous girl! She just waltzed right in and made herself at home. Can't wait to see you and Wilma take on the world!

[@majesticwolfy1209]

From the moment i saw you ride her, i knew you'd come home with her, she's beautiful Meg and you looked so confident riding her, you're going to be a fantastic team and i can't wait to watch your adventures with her!!!!!

[@Serphyr]

which video did she ride it on?

[@a.p6438]

@@Serphyr the second video I believe

[@GrannysWanderingSpirit]

I was really hoping you would bring Wilma home. You just looked like you had so much fun with her, and she gave you confidence. To see her walk so beautifully off the lorry and down the lane, and then walking into her stall like she's been there forever. I'm with you. A new adventure that I can't wait to watch. I"m so excited for you.

[@izzistock6807]

So so pleased for you!!!! I really hope you mention in your next video the reasons why you chose her, rather than the others. Kind of like a post-event talk through, but for pony shopping!

[@jumpingwithivy]

Oh she is gorgeous! Congratulations ❤

[@elliepopdragon28]

Congratulations Meg! So happy for you!! Wilma is absolutely adorable. I was very invested in you buying a new horse, haha, but I'm so excited about your future with her!!! She seems very happy and comfortable already, and she is just the cutest! All of the horses you tried were fantastic, but you didn't seem to connect with any of them quite like Wilma. Again, congrats, and I can't wait to be there on your journey with her. Much love🤎🤎🤎

[@sheblyne]

Oh Meg! That beautiful head and sweet eye! Coming all that way by boat and that enormous horse lorry, walking onto your property with two strangers into a new stable with other unknow horses and it didn't phase her at all! She has an amazing calm about her which is just what you need. I'm so very glad you chose Wilma because she will be so confidence boosting for you. Today is the first day of your horse life and may every ride be such a pleasure for you. All my love to you and your mother and of course, the lovely Wilma.

[@maisieburns5660]

May you and Wilma enjoy each other so much! Love you Meg! I was rooting for her

[@atthestables]

It's has to be either the stunning grey mare! With the amazing markings or the bay mare! Soo excited to see anyways 🎉 well deserved new pony Meg ❤

[@sc_equestrian5217]

Oh Meg.. YES!!! Welcome Wilma, she’s beautiful. Can’t wait to see your journey together. Congratulations xx

[@Talkingg]

Ahhhhhh welcome Wilma!! How gorgeous, she's absolutely beautiful and I can already tell she's going to be a great addition to your yard. Congrats Meg on finding such a great horse!

[@aliciacosta3178]

She’s gorgeous ❤ and all those little faces looking on the box, all waiting their turn to be dropped off to their new homes, so sweet 😊

[@izziekathryn]

I knew it! The way you spoke about her when you did the voice over for your first viewing of her, I knew instantly she was the one. Congratulations on the newest member of the family and welcome to the vlogging life Wilma🫶

[@topgunsmaverick]

ABSOLUTELY SCREAMING AND SOBBING!!!!! Congratulations Meg!! She’s stunningly beautiful!!!!!!!😭🩷

[@tori_s_equestrian]

This is going to be the best journey to follow! 🎉what a special lady Wilma is already 😍 and as I think we've all said, "as soon as you sat on her, something just seemed to click into place. You both looked very comfortable with each other at the viewing, and I predicted in my very first comment when I first saw her that she would literally just slot in with all the other ponies very calmly and quiet and she did just that!! It was really lovely to witness your very first sit on your Wilma, and now we get to watch the entire journey 😀 ❤ Chapter one.....

[@Lealea64]

I have no idea why I burst into tears but here we are 😂 I'm so happy for you Meg ❤ Welcome to the herd Wilma you are stunning ❤❤❤❤

[@breezy8722]

Oh I’m so happy for you Meg!! It was evident through the screen that she was the one from the first look at her. Like everyone else said, it feels like I’m getting a new horse too! Thanks so much for sharing and letting us all be a part of the journey. You and Wilma are going to be an epic team, I just know it! She’s special!

[@SirXer]

Oh my goodness it's so awesome to see Wilma home! I'm so excited to see all of your adventures together to come.

[@barbarianvee]

Wilma!!! So happy everything worked out to get her, that first ride was so wonderful I didn't doubt you'd get her if everything went smoothly. She's so cool and you sounded so joyful about that first sit on her 💗 She's going to look gorgeous in green, too 🤩 Can't wait to see everything you do together and how she gets on with the herd 🐴🐴🐴 You clearly picked a great one

[@issybrinesj]

Wilma 🥹❤️ she has my heart already!! I’m sure everyone will agree with me but this Ireland series has been soooo good to watch and this was the perfect ending. Bring on the future with this gorgeous girl!

[@sparkyclarky1976]

Cant wait to see meg❤ Im sure your new horse will get on great with you Lots of love from Layla in ireland🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

[@lydiaheywood3907]

Wilma is a stunner! Took it all in her stride! UNIBED looks beautiful too, you make a marvellous bed!

[@MissSmoothieGirl]

Yessss! That decision was surely a no-brainer. You looked so good on her and she seemed to boost your confidence so much. Excited to watch your journey with her in the future. Congratulations (oh, yes she was my pick too)

[@aidanham]

OMG OMG OMG it's her!!! It's the bay cutie!! 😍🤩 oohh I can't wait to see what the future brings the two of you!! It's going to be bright for sure! The two of you just oozed that from the get go! She's so pretty and her attitude is remarkable. Just strutting in so composed and going for a roll and a munch. This was truly the cliff hanger of the century but the reveal was so worth it! Congratulations Meg!

[@kamlaurence7874]

So excited for you! Of all the horses we saw you try, this one just looked right - I’m glad she felt right to you, too. Cannot wait to see the adventures you both go on.

[@julesrogers3146]

OMD! I HAVE FALLEN IN LOVE MEG! so so happy for you. really really love her!!

[@HollyBN]

Aw Meg I’m so excited for you! The moment you sat on her you could see there was a connection and how much confidence she gave you ❤ also really love that she just walked in, laid in bed, and ate! Kinda like me coming home from work

[@sophie.makeup_9521]

Oh meggg she is absolutely gorgeous, I’m so excited to see your future ! So glad you came back with her !!! ❤

[@kylieashman1415]

Yes! Wilma was definitely the standout horse for me. You really looked a great team and I can see such a beautiful partnership to come!

[@Lotteieyfiueyiuwe]

AWHHH MEGG!! I am so so so happy for youu. I love how happy you are and how you were smiling the whole videoo

AHHHHH!!!!! Can you hear me yelling from here???? Wilma🥹🥹🥹🥹she had us all rooting for her from the get go! What a sweetheart. Couldn’t possibly be happier for you Meg. I’m so looking forward to following along with your journey together. Exciting times ahead!! x

[@TheMegahusky]

Aw, lovely little horse and nicely laid back. All the very best and good luck with Wilma. 🍀

[@madisonpure4090]

She has such a young and beautiful face. Very lively eyes and ears. You two will make a great team

[@equinesandcanines64]

Im so happy for you Meg , I literally screamed with joy for you ❤ I love her name 💖

[@Narrendor]

SO excited for you Meg! She looks right at home, and am certain she'll be a happy member of the herd in no time.

[@Brisingrize]

I knew it was going to be her, and the way she just so casually settled in, I think proves she liked you just as much ❤️. Welcome home Wilma ❤️.

[@lynsuggs1554]

Exactly the one I would have chosen! Was so hoping you went with her! Congratulations!! So happy for you both!

[@tsanti6200]

CALLED IT!!! 🙌🏼 I literally ran from work to watch this 😂 Congrats on the new horse, she’s absolutely gorgeous! So looking forward to seeing you and Wilma’s journey 🥳🤍

[@lunamrkovacki1025]

Yaaaay, I'd hoped it would be this mare. Congrats Meg, she's absolutely gorgeous!

[@annjohnson8437]

She is even more stunning than I remembered! Congratulations! ❤

[@RebeccaMcGuckian]

Amazing it’s like you went through some rite of passage … your instincts were spot on and I think she picked you!😊

[@zoeanng824]

Im so proud of you Meg and I can't believe how far you've come it may not have been easy but your here and you can enjoy what you love just try not to put to much pressure on yourself 💗

[@LindaBell-444]

Yayyyyyyy, you went with her!! She is lovely and I am excited to follow her progress ❤🥳 Wilma ❤

[@juliedalgardno3361]

Oh my goodness! I'm so glad you got her!!! You saw so many great grey's I thought you'd go that direction. But when you were riding her everything really connected! ❤Big Congrats 🎉! 😊

[@evelynjellema9827]

She gleamed coming off that lorry!! Stunning girl- very happy for you! Congratulations 🎉

[@claireallen5643]

Yey! I guessed correctly! 😁😁😁 Oh man is she stunning, up close and personal 💖 I'm so happy for you Meg, she will make a wonderful addition to the horse fam! I absolutely adore her already and I get such a good feeling about her as a whole. She will fit right in. Just like she showed by having a good roll on her fresh clean bedding, and tucking in to her hay and the meal you provided her. You can tell she is very sure of herself and a very laid back lady. I can't wait to see and hear more about beautiful Wilma ❤🐴❤ Team Bay all the way 🥰

[@Blind_Horse_Rider]

Oh Meg! I was getting very emotional watching you wait for her and as they got her off the lorry! 🥰 She is adorable! Cannot wait to see her in your vlogs! Xxx

[@megglesh89]

I thought for sure it was the bay mare! but Simon's story threw me😂. I personally love the bay mare as Meg had barely any bad points about her. But going off the lemieuxbox i think its a grey...

[@vogelvrouw]

Yes im in the same boat!! I was so sure about the bay but then I saw the lemieux posts so now im on team gray

[@mythicmadness679]

I'm team bay but the story made me remember that young chestnut the box would be nice on either

[@kristawilson718]

OMGOODNESS!!!! SHE'S ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!!! CONGRATS SWEET GIRL!!! YOU DESERVE THE BEST!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️🐎❤️ OHHHH! I LOVE HER!!!

Shes so beautiful!!! Happy early Christmas Meg!!! Wilma is a stunner, you two are going to have so many great Adventures togerther!!!!! 🐎🐴😄❤

[@jennoula]

Eeeek Meg!!! I am so made up for you and I was so hoping this was the mare you chose, I absolutely fell in love with her at first sight. She is gorgeous!!!! Even brought a tear to my eye when you revealed her coz I am a total drip lol xx

[@kristinvinje8608]

Omg I can’t wait!! I really hope you got the 6yr old bay mare from episode 2. I think you two really clicked. You also still can produce her at that age, you just have a lovely place to start off. But I know you made the right decision for you though! ❤ Omg I was right! You guys are going to have such a great future together! Can’t wait to see you two really come along 🥰 Welcome home Wilma 😊

[@that_dappled_cob]

Same!! 💕

[@magicaltrails]

Horses sometimes make me want to cry. The way she followed you into the strange barn, all trusting and brave. And she just settled in, after her whole life had been turned upside down. Would we humans could do so well!

[@fleetskipper1810]

Well said

[@suziethecob]

I’m so excited! I’m currently on a 4 hour train journey after college to see my father so hopefully this’ll keep me entertained for a bit 😂 I’m so excited! ❤❤

Omg Meg!!!!! I knew it would be her, she's even more stunning than I remember!! She seemed so settled straight away!!! I love her name, Wilma!! Gorgeous!! Dee Dee's face the other side of the bars when they said hello, she was giving her daggers!! As if to say, this is my home, and don't u forget it!!! Ha ha!! Can't wait to see the next vlog!! Congratulations!! Oh and that lorry was insane!!!!! Ha ha!! Xx

[@kickonwithkim6442]

I really liked the final grey (in your last vlog). But also the bay mare and the grey with the spotty bum 😍 (am I allowed 3 guesses?) 🙈 so excited either way!

[@ChloeJoness21]

I can’t wait to find out Meg!! ❤❤ Whichever horse you picked we all know you will of made a AMAZING choice xx

[@tmis111]

There was a connection even when you first saw her in the stable! So happy for you Meg… she’s mega 😉🤎🤎 welcome Wilma xxx

[@Katy.Lou.K]

I am so glad you chose Wilma!! I thought you guys had the best connection of all the horses you rode! To top it off… She’s beautiful! I love a dark bay! So excited for her future with you Meg! Love from California⛰️🌲☀️💙

[@rachaelkirby3467]

Congratulations Meg on your beautiful bay girl, I said in the beginning you’d come back with a bay, only she doesn’t have a white blaze and four white socks, but she is better, she’s absolutely gorgeous and when I saw you ride her it was as if you’d been riding her for years, you had such a connection with her and she was so comfortable with you. Can’t wait to see where you and Wilma go in your journey. Xx

Very excited to watch can’t wait I think it is the grey or bay mare from part 2 but I will edit this comment after I have watched either way I am very excited and happy for you x ❤ EDIT:I guess I was correct but I must say Wilma is sooo gorgeous and looks a lot more taller than the others 😂 she seems such a sweetheart too! ❤

[@metrothyme]

Meg, you did so well. What a nice horse, temperament, conformation and movement, you got it all. I am excited to watch your journey.

[@algeebo]

KNEW IT! She’s stunning. Here’s to a bright future together ❤

[@BalletReena]

YESSSSSS!!! This is who I wanted you to pick! As soon as I saw you on her I was like, WOW, that's the one.

[@thenorfolkequestrian]

I think it’s the dark bay you did all the XC with or the grey with the little spots 😍

[@laurawallbank]

I was sort of hoping it was the other bay mare, as she caught my eye and I felt something about her would go well with you here. But this girl was another one I liked as well! She isn't a whole lot bigger than your currents, but is that bit more horsey, and isn't a grey! She's definitely got that TB build as well but she'll fill out more like you said. And the fact that you did much more with her, said you gelled more with her quicker, and felt confident on her is so great! Congratulations and enjoy her!

[@leahthackerrrrr]

I really hope it’s the Bay in part 2, you gelled so well!! But I think you haven’t shown the one yet, I’m praying it’s a palomino!! 💙

[@magicaltrails]

She said on Insta that we DID see the horse she chose. 🙂

[@janeminwell4395]

Ooh the suspense, and then there she was, the brown mare, gorgeous Wilma! Super conclusion to your shopping trip Meg.

[@Kanakanakanakanakana]

It better be the 6 yo bay mare

[@esthers.9185]

I love looking through the comments and just seeing the Flintstones references to "Wilmaaa!" 😂 But congratulations on your new horse, Meg! I knew you'd have to have a little bit of Connemara in there, but I'm very pleased that she's also half-Thoroughbred. She's bred for sporting, that's for sure! Best of luck to you and Hobbs, and I hope Wilma gets some wonderful new friends!
