'A Christmas movie was a dream of mine'

When Caprice Bourret was a little girl, her beloved great- grandmother crocheted two Christmas stockings – one for her and one for her younger sister, Tippy. Every Christmas Eve those handmade stockings would be hung above the fireplace of their family home in Los Angeles, ready for the sisters to come down on Christmas morning where they would excitedly find them filled with presents. It’s a tradition that Caprice has continued with her own children, sons Jett and Jax, both aged 11.

“Can you believe my two boys have those stockings now, how cute is that? They love their stockings more than their Christmas presents. It’s about those little Christmas traditions from one generation to the next and I just love it,” Caprice says.

Although, much to Caprice’s heartbreak, the boys discovered the truth about Father Christmas a few years ago, it hasn’t stopped her from going all out. “I go a little bit over the top,” she says. I have four Christmas trees in my house. They go up on 1 November and I start listening to Christmas music in October.

“The boys knew about Santa when they were about eight years old. They were like, ‘Mummy, we know already, you can stop the charade.’ I was like, “OK…”, but it hasn’t stopped me. I’m obsessed with Christmas and happiness. With everything going on in the world, I just want it to be Christmas every day.”
