Stacey Solomon can’t stop laughing as Santa turns up to Hanukkah celebrations

Stacey Solomon couldn’t stop laughing as Father Christmas arrived at her house while her family was celebrating Hanukkah on Thursday night.

The Loose Women panelist, 31, marks both the Jewish festival and Christmas as her mum was raised Christian before converting to Judaism to marry Stacey’s dad.

But she wasn’t expecting Santa to turn up at her door when she and her sons Zachary, 12, Leighton, eight, and one-year-old Rex had her nieces around to celebrate the special day

She took to her Instagram stories to film Santa standing on her doorstep, saying: “I’m laughing so much because look who’s come to visit us on the first night of Hanukah.”

Stacey, 31, cheered as Santa rung the bells, telling him: Yes Santa!”

Santa told the camera: “Happy Hannukah everyone, and a very Merry Christmas!”

The mum-of-three then filmed him talking to the kids at the door.

She captioned the video: “Certainly not a traditional Chanukah evening.

“But the more traditions the better I say.”

“Wow, how cool was that!” Stacey added when Santa left.

Hanukkah started last night and lasts until next Friday night.

Stacey went on: “We weren’t expecting that! My nieces are here too because my sister and brother-in-law are working so it was even more special… Now for Chanukah dinner.

“Thank you @SpaceNK Santa for visiting our road… We know you have so many others to see so you didn’t have to squeeze us in!”

Stacey had started the day by making a Star of David out of cinnamon sticks and fejka plants, and later created a Menorah out of blueberries and bananas.

She revealed she’s bought her boys presents to open every day of Hanukkah.

The TV star said: “We will light a candle every day for eight days and the boys get a small gift on each night.
