Complaints

In 2015 the title was censured by the Independent Press Standards Organisation after ruling that the magazine had breached the clause on accuracy in the editor's code of practice, this was as a result of a complaint by Leanne Owens, who had submitted a story to the magazine regarding her difficult pregnancy, but upon publication in an October 2014 issue, the story was found to have several falsities, and was not faithful to what was allegedly discussed with the publication's journalist. Despite maintaining that care was taken to provide an accurate story, that's life! issued a correction and an apology.[5]
