I what to display a feed page for a authenticated user which shows the latest posts from users that they follow. I have a follow system set up already which has the following:

Tabels:

User model:

 public function follow() {  
    return $this->BelongsToMany( 'User', 'Follow' ,'follow_user', 'user_id');
}

Feed controller:

public function feed () {

    $user = (Auth::user());

        return View::make('profile.feed')->with('user',$user);

    }

Feed.blade

  @foreach ($user->follow as $follow)

 @foreach ($follow->posts as $post)

     //* post data here.

  @endforeach

 @endforeach

This is pulling in the posts from the users a user follows but, i have a problem. The foreach is returning a user and then their posts each time.

What its doing now:

Followed user 1

• Post 1


• Post 2


• Post 3 etc etc

Followed user 2

• Post 1


• Post 2


• Post 3 etc etc

What i would like to display:

• Followed User 1 Post 1


• Followed User 2 Post 1


• Followed User 2 Post 2


• Followed User 1 Post 2 etc etc

Any ideas?
