Chloe Madeley switches on Christmas lights
LATER today the Madeleys will be travelling to Windsor, where, to our astonishment, our daughter Chloe will be among the “celebrities” switching on the town’s Christmas lights.
She’s playing the Sleeping Beauty in Windsor’s pantomime, so she and the rest of the cast (Britt Ekland, Anita Harris and Christopher Biggins) have been asked to perform this distinguished annual ceremony.
We can’t stop laughing. After all those years when we took our children to the local panto every Boxing Day, we’ll now be doing the same thing but to watch our little girl on the stage.
It’s heartwarming but I can’t help feeling nostalgic for the days when the Sleeping Beauty was the starry-eyed child in the stalls.
