The singer continued, “This wouldn’t have been possible without the amazing help from @Decorators.For.Christmas. ‘I think we’ll be watching The Grinch tonight!’

Last week she explained that she didn’t want to wait long to get her Christmas tree and decorations out, but decided to put them up on November 1st.

In their latest OK! Kerry said in a column in the magazine: “I usually go all out for Halloween and go to town with decorations – as you can see in the picture!” But for the first time ever this year I did nothing. “Hosting is a lot of work.”

She explained that she wanted to make the most of the Christmas celebrations as she was busy with work in December and this would be her last Christmas in the UK.

The former singer previously revealed that she plans to start a new life in Spain with her fiancé Ryan Mahoney.

Kerry wrote: “My Christmas decorations will be up on November 1st though.” I can’t wait. I work throughout December and when I hang them up I’m not home to enjoy them.

“I really want to get into the Christmas spirit and feel festive, so I’m going to spend November doing that. Especially because it will be our last Christmas before we move to Spain.”

The mother-of-five and her fiancé are hoping to swap their Cheshire villa for a new home in Marbella in the summer when their tenancy agreement ends in June.

The couple flew to the Costa del Sol earlier this month and Kerry revealed they had already viewed houses.

Write OK! In her column she shared: “I’m in Marbella this week and I’m feeling so great, I just love being in the sun.” We’ve done lots of house viewings here this week with Drumelia Real Estate and found the perfect villa, but unfortunately we can’t do anything until June next year.

“It’s nice to get a feel for the areas and places we want to move to though.” “I love England and I love the English, but I hate the weather. It makes me feel so much better to be out here.”

Kerry is the proud mother of children Molly, 22, Lilly, 20, Heidi, 16, Max, 15 and DJ, 9, and has admitted the move will be easier now that her children are older.
