She spoke to fans via her Instagram Stories and she did so from her bed, with what looked like only her duvet to cover her up. “It’s that time of year when it all catches up with you and it’s also that limbo time too..” she wrote alongside her video in which she revealed: “A knackered mummy, it’s that time of the year… Daddy is downstairs watching Netflix, and I think I might watch a bit of Emily in Paris. “I hope you are all OK, got through Christmas OK, and let’s crack on with 2022.” She later elaborated further on why she and Jack were watching TV from different rooms. “Jack’s been booted out. He’s actually watching a series I couldn’t get into and I fancy something light-hearted… or maybe I will eat more chocolate and fall asleep,” she explained.
