However, Christine has taken to Instagram to reveal her Christmas plans were hit with chaos when she attempted to complete her present shopping.
In a clip on her Instagram Story, she said: "Absolute last attempt at Christmas shopping was such a massive failure. I've got back in the car with a headache, some chips. I did buy a bottle of water as well but I left it at the till.
"It's just really a terrible time for me. I can't do shopping. I hate shopping anyway." Christine said she tried to be organised and order her presents online, but they haven't turned up.
She added: "The kids are sorted, which is the most important thing. I'm happy about them, that's gorgeous, but I'm giving up. I'm not doing it. I've left with nothing but a headache.
"See that sunset over there, I'm gonna go and find that. That's just so much better. I'd rather look at the sunset than go shopping."
