She might be the queen of cruising, but this Christmas Jane McDonald’s feet are going to be firmly on dry land as she celebrates in her beloved hometown, Wakefield, with her nearest and dearest.
The singer, 59, tells us she’ll be surrounded by family – including her niece’s new baby – at her West Yorkshire home, and she wouldn’t have it any other way.
“I’ve got everybody coming for the day,” she tells us. “We’re cooking for 11 on Christmas Day, but it’ll be great because it’s the family and we’ve got a new baby and we’re all just mad about it. In fact, we won’t even put the TV on, because we’ll be watching the baby!”
