As a result of the pandemic restrictions over Christmas, the family were unable to spend the day together, but more than made up for it at the start of the year when Deborah, Al and Nick went to visit Leila in Paris.

The reunion in Paris would have meant the world to Al and his family. Just before Christmas, Deborah had penned a lengthy message about the year 2021, which was accompanied by a picture of her family.
