2026-05-20 · via News | Mail Online

A 'proud' trad wife has revealed how she's accused of being anti-feminist - but claims cooking and cleaning is the key to a successful marriage.

Grace Olivier, from Doncaster, South Yorkshire, married her husband, Moses Olivier, 18 months ago and the couple have both assumed 'traditional' roles in their marriage.

The 35-year-old says she spends her days cleaning, cooking and homeschooling their youngest son and 'absolutely loves' when her partner enjoys her cooking after a long day working as an infrastructure advisor.

While she has had jobs in the past the mother-of-four says she views her domestic role as the 'easiest side' of the marriage because her biggest stress is what meals to cook.

Taking inspiration from her grandparents, she believes 'marriages were more successful' years ago when each partner had a specific role - and she says divorce rates are high because too many people are prioritising work over marriage.

Grace shared a video to TikTok captioned, 'They say my marriage is stuck in the 1940s. Well, the 40s doesn't sound too bad', which has since gone viral with more than 94,000 views.

The clip shows Grace beaming happily while taking a batch of freshly made bread rolls out of the oven.

In another clip, she explained 'Being a trad wife for me means that my home, my husband and my family come above anything else'.

Many users supported Grace's marriage in the comments with one user saying, 'That's how it's meant to be'.

However, other users were quick to brand her lifestyle as 'oppressive' with one user writing, 'It's oppressive when you believe your only purpose is a wife'.

Grace hopes to normalise traditional roles and encourages others to follow her lifestyle to ensure their 'marriage thrives'.

Grace said: 'I'm proud to be a trad wife. Within our marriage we do have very clear-cut roles. Not that anybody's forced into doing either side of the role. It's all about choice.

'Back when we were children and we were getting brought up that was just the norm. My grandparents were the original influencers and have such an impact on the person I am now.

'They were married from 20 until they died at nearly 90 years old. A big thing for us is it worked for them and I still think it works better now.

'Take out the word marriage and you apply the same sort of logic to a business. A business always thrives a lot better if everyone knows what they're supposed to be doing. This is the key to stable and successful marriage.

'My side of the whole marriage is the easiest side. If all I have to do is make a few meals a day and make sure that my house looks nice because somebody's got to go and pay bills.

Grace, who has been with her partner for 12 years, believes her traditional role, which includes cooking and cleaning, is vital to the success of her marriage

'The day is pretty much filled up with things like home educating, and obviously I know it sounds so cliche but cooking and cleaning.

'I absolutely love when my partner can come home and enjoy my cooking. Cooking truly is my love language. I take a lot of pride and joy in that. I think it's one of his favourite parts of his day. My Sunday roasts are everyone's favourite.'

Grace, who has been with her partner for 12 years, believes her traditional role is key to the success of her marriage and says that caring for her husband and family comes before anything.

Grace said: 'The marriage and the home is top and family comes first. If you're prioritising what needs to be prioritised you're not going to fail.

'If people want to say our marriage is stuck in the 1940s, they can do that, and I get it to a certain degree.

'But I think what people fail to realise is we kind of live the way our grandparents used to live but we're well aware we're in 2026.

'People use that as an insult. How on earth is that insulting when marriages were for all accounts more successful back then?

'Look at divorce statistics nowadays. I just think to myself, 'Why is that?' A big correlation is people are prioritising other things.

The mother-of-four explained that her love language is cooking - and that she finds a lot of joy in making food for her family

'Everybody wants to go out to work and be on top. I sometimes think, 'Why did you get married if that marriage isn't going to be one of those priorities?'

'The thing I do like to put across is nobody is forcing anybody in this marriage to do anything. It's all a choice.

'I think that people throw the word oppressive around and it kind of diminishes people that genuinely are oppressed in the world because, how on earth can you say I'm oppressed when this is the life I'm choosing to live?

'People saying I'm anti-feminist and against women is one of the biggest things we end up fighting back at.

'For me, at the core of feminism is that women are able to choose the life they want to live. The fact I'm choosing this way, how can that mean that I'm anti-feminist?'

The mother hopes to spread awareness about her lifestyle and encourage other couples to similarly follow their traditional roles.

Grace said: 'It's nice to normalise the way that we live.

'As long as you're not putting yourself in any sort of risk or in harm's way then I'd recommend this lifestyle to anybody.

'If it's something you want to do, why wouldn't you do that as long as you're not hurting anybody else. Do what's going to make your marriage thrive.'

Some TikTok users praised Grace's lifestyle. One user said: 'Everyone hates but the point of feminism is to have the choice about being a housewife or having a career.'

Another user said: 'Liking a traditional/role-based marriage does not mean you're being forced or abused.'

A third user said: 'Every couple should just do how they please.' A fourth said: 'That's how it's meant to be.'

However, other users were quick to criticise Grace. One user said: 'Cooking and cleaning etc. is not a job, it's what every woman does regardless. You just sound lazy.'

A second user said: 'You shouldn't cook for a man every day - and I'm in a happy relationship.'

A fourth user said: 'What kind of man can't cook for themselves these days and doesn't want to cook for their partner as well?'
