‘Heartbroken’ fan shares devastating theory about Bluey’s mum Chilli

‘Heartbroken’ fan brought to tears as she reveals a devastating theory about Bluey’s mum: ‘I can’t believe it took me years to notice’

  • Fans of children’s show Bluey are sobbing over theory about mum Chilli
  • Viewers speculate the Heeler mum is ‘secretly very sad’
  • In one episode she carries a book about ‘how to be happy’

Bluey fans have revealed a devastating theory that mum Chilli is suffering from depression, leaving thousands feeling down about the popular program.

Some viewers of the Australian children’s show have noticed a number of subtle hints signaling the mum-of-two is ‘secretly very sad’. 

In one episode titled ‘Relax’ the Heeler family of four go on a beach holiday, and when Bluey asks Chilli what her book is called, she says: ‘It’s about how to be happy’. 

Elsewhere in the seven-minute episode, she has troubling unwinding alone on the beach and later tells husband Bandit ‘it’s harder than it looks’ – a feeling hundreds of mums would relate to. 

Fans have also speculated Chilli is ‘trying to find herself again’ after having kids – like a lot of mums do – and doesn’t know how to enjoy her own time anymore. 

Viewers believe the Chilli’s behaviour reflects what mums across the world experience after giving away part of themselves when they have children. 

The animated show has dealt with heavy topics before, including death, infertility and divorce, in a bid to educate children about serious issues.
