Step aside Santa Claus, all our Christmas wishes have just come true! The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and legendary baker Mary Berry have teamed up for a special festive programme which was shown on BBC1 on Monday. The delightful trio cook up a delicious feast to thank people who will be working on Christmas Day. Mary came up with sumptuous recipes for a party they hosted at the Rosewood Hotel in London last month. Donning a pinny or two with the help of former Bake Off winner Nadiya Hussain, the royals and the bakers cook up a storm of festive delights - including Christmas Meringue Roulade – for their lucky guests. Yum!

The dress quickly became iconic - especially as it was actually first seen on the Duchess of Sussex's former Suits co-star Abigail Spencer at the royal wedding in May 2018.
