Alongside The Spectator, Hardman wrote a weekly column for the Evening Standard[6] on nature in London from 2020, until 2021.
[16] In April 2016, Hardman tweeted that a male member of Parliament had referred to her as "the totty" and that she had reported him to the whips.
[20] She wrote that her recovery was partly down to time spent outdoors: she is a cold-water swimmer, and in 2019 ran the London Marathon for Refuge, raising £37,000 for the charity.
