Christmas will look a little different for everybody this year because of the ongoing global pandemic. But one person who is not letting the uncertainty put a damper on things is actor Linda Robson, who is back to her best after recovering from a breakdown.

While lockdown has weighed heavy on many people’s hearts, the downtime has given Linda, 62, time to focus on what’s really important – quality time with loved ones. As a result, she’s looking forward to creating a magical Christmas for her nearest and dearest.

FESTIVE FUN WITH FAMILY

Woman’s Own understands Linda is hoping to spend Christmas with her family, including her beloved grandchildren Lila and Betsy.

A source close to the TV star reveals, ‘Lila and Betsy call Nanny Linda all the time and are very close to her.

‘She’s saying this will be the best Christmas ever – despite everything – because, no matter what, she’s got them.’

We’re told Linda put the decorations up early and is really making the festive season stretch. ‘She got the presents and decorations together in advance,’ our source says. ‘Christmas hasn’t been such a happy occasion for Linda for the past couple of years, so she’s really pulling out all the stops.’
