Sam Faiers gives a glimpse inside her Christmas and Boxing Day with Paul Knightley and their kids

Sam Faiers got into the festive spirit this weekend as she gave fans a glimpse of her Christmas and Boxing Days with her family.

The former TOWIE star, 29, put on a jovial display as she took to Instagram to share clips and pictures from her celebrations with partner Paul Knightley, his mum Gaynor and children Rosie and Paul Jnr. 

And with there being much gloom and doom around thanks to the latest Covid-19 restrictions, Sam certainly appeared to make the best of it as she marked the occasion with her nearest and dearest. 

Merry Christmas: Sam Faiers got into the festive spirit this weekend as she gave fans a glimpse of her Christmas and Boxing Days with her family

The Mummy Diaries star documented her day on social media, starting with a fun Boomerang of her dancing in front of the camera with a bottle of bubbly. 

Sam kept things comfy for Christmas day, donning a simple black top and khaki joggers, while she left her locks loose. 

Sam also shared a heartwarming snap of her sweet family standing in front of their Christmas tree.

Captioning the snap on her grid, she penned: ‘Merry Christmas to all my followers, thank you for always being so loyal, encouraging & kind. I hope everyone had a wonderful day ❤️ x.’

Meanwhile, the star shared a glimpse of Paul’s mother Gaynor dancing in the kitchen while on meat duty.

Gaynor appeared in a great mood as she bopped along to music in a heart-print top while preparing for the family’s feast.  

Despite being in Tier 4, Gaynor’s presence may be due to the family forming a support bubble with her or even a childcare bubble, in which parents can form a bubble with one other household for the purposes of informal childcare, where the child is 13 or under.
