Amanda Holden, 55, has proved she's the ultimate Queen of Christmas as she's already had the halls decked at her family home, despite it only being the start of November.
The Heart Radio presenter took to Instagram to share a video of the impressive transformation at her property, which includes giant foliage garlands framing her front door showcasing teal bows and gold baubles. Inside, her entranceway includes a jaw-dropping tree with life-sized reindeer and matching garlands that were trailed up her staircase.
In the caption, Amanda explained her love for the festive season. She penned: "I don’t think I’ll ever be able to explain quite what Christmas means to me. I was lucky enough to have a childhood full of love. We didn’t have much, but somehow Christmas always felt like we had everything.

"This weekend the gorgeous @kellylouisefloralartistry and her lovely, down-to-earth team spent the day transforming our home. Warm, funny, hardworking people who were an absolute joy to have around.
"I paid for the installation, but I’ll always shout about good people doing brilliant things. And I absolutely love what they’ve created.
"Anyway, consider this fair warning. The Christmas content will be relentless. Feel free to mute me until January, but I’ll be reporting you directly to Santa."

While many believe November is too early, particularly before Bonfire Night has even occurred, fellow celebrities were quick to defend Amanda in the comments section, heaping praise on the star's festive home.

While there is no "right" time to get your tree up and your house decorated, in the UK it is common to do so at the start of Advent, which kicks off on 1 December or the fourth Sunday before Christmas, which this year lands on 29 November.
