The new Top Gear host goes into overdrive saying: “I finally get to go big time with the lights! So happy – until I get the leccy bill.” Sam said: “Is that a space rocket that’s landed in Paddy’s garden? We all love a light show and this certainly delivers. A little lean but the lights cascade makes up for it.” BY RHIAN LUBIN Kensington Palace shared a time-lapse of Kate and Wills’ huge tree. Sam said: “It may not have quite the Markle sparkle but the tree is as demure and stylish as they are. Palace aides went for glorious gold baubles and understated lights.” Tom, 33, went traditional and decorated his tree with red and gold baubles. Sam said: “Fun-loving Tom has obviously enjoyed decorating this tree but there’s nothing particularly carefree about it. The baubles are colour-themed to each other and to the room. It looks small but perfectly formed.” The Loose Women presenter shared a photo with her son Finlay in front of their tree. Sam said: “Andrea McLean appears to love a relaxed and loose theme with a variety of baubles and a scattergun approach to decorating.” Adventurer Ben, 45, posted a candid snap with his little girl on his shoulders so she could reach the top of the tree.
Sam said: “A real family tree and the Christmas star takes pride of place.” No Mysterious Girls for the singer – just the work of wife Emily and daughter Amelia. Sam said: “Picture-perfect family tree. Fabulous shape with colour-co-ordinated decorations.” BY TOM BRYANT AMY Winehouse’s ex-husband Blake FielderCivil has said their drug use was exaggerated, and insisted: “Amy didn’t do anything Amy didn’t want to do.”
Fielder-Civil, who was married to the singer from 2007 to 2009, said: “The drug thing has been attributed to me for years.
“Me and Amy only used drugs together maybe six months of our marriage.
“I did heroin maybe four or five times.”
Amy died of alcohol poisoning in 2011, aged 27.
Speaking on Good Morning Britain, FielderCivil slammed a show with an Amy hologram, suggesting it was a bid to cash in on her memory.
Her family said proceeds would go to the Amy Winehouse Foundation.
