Helping hands: Sadie gets a lift from her boys

SADIE FROST, 52, knows she can rely on the support of her three sons to carry her through Christmas. The actress posted this larky picture on Instagram of her being held aloft by her children — from left to right, model Rafferty, 21, Rudy, 15 and DJ Finlay, 27.

‘Getting ready for Christmas? I am! Just remember a mum is not just for Christmas . . . but for life,’ Sadie captions the image. Finlay is her only child by first husband, Spandau Ballet guitarist Gary Kemp, whom she left for Hollywood heart-throb Jude Law, with whom she had Rafferty and Rudy, and a daughter, Iris.

No doubt Jude, 44, will be pulling his weight this Christmas, too, when it comes to buying presents.

After his divorce from Sadie, the Talented Mr Ripley star went on to impregnate model Samantha Burke during a one- night stand in 2008. Jude later had a second child out of wedlock with aspiring Irish- born singer Catherine Harding.
