The This Morning host talks about her festive plans for this year ahead of the Christmas Day special episode airing on December 25.
Holly Willoughby, Philip Schofield, Alison Hammond, and Dermot O’Leary share who they’re inviting, what food they’re planning to cook, and the show’s celebrity chefs give them key recipes and tips. How are hints provided?
It comes as the ITV show is set to return to ITV screens for a special Christmas Day episode – which will be Dermot and Alison’s first since taking over regular hosting duties.
Holly admits that when looking at New Year’s resolutions, she thinks about the challenges she faces as a mother.
Looking forward to next year, as I’m sure any parent would say every year brings new challenges,’ she said.
‘But the other side of it is that you’re seeing these little human beings grow and develop and become whole so I think I’m just looking forward to what’s going to happen with them and seeing that. I wonder who they are becoming.
‘My eldest is now 13 and the relationship has changed a lot. You know, they sit down at the table with you and you’re talking about things that aren’t just about what they did in school that day, it’s about the world. How to watch and watch and I am really enjoying it.
‘I’m enjoying this stage and seeing all the things you’ve held in your early childhood years suddenly blossoming and I can’t wait for more and just a helping hand. By being a bit of a spectator!’
