Holly told her followers: “So it’s the Royal wedding, my sisters 40th and my mums 70th birthday party at the willoughby residence today!!!! …

“I blame you @ladywilloughby for the dress code!!!! #whynot #happiness #love.”

When revealing her plans, Holly had joked that she would be looking like Miss Havisham, from the Charles Dickens novel Great Expectations.

“I dug [my dress] out – I took it into This Morning to the big steamer as I haven’t got one of those,” she explained.

“It is filthy! I haven’t had it dried cleaned. It’s a bit ripped.”

Um, no. You definitely don’t look like Miss Havisham, Holls!
