Rochelle Humes and Simon Cowell are leading the celebrity Christmas getaway exodus, swapping Britain's grey skies for sun-soaked escapes as they jet off with their families for festive luxury abroad.
Rochelle Humes' Dubai Family Bliss
Rochelle Humes, the This Morning presenter and former Saturdays star, has jetted to Dubai with husband Marvin Humes and their three children for a pre-Christmas paradise break. Photos show the family lounging poolside at a five-star Palm Jumeirah resort, Rochelle glowing in a barely-there gold bikini that accentuates her toned post-baby figure, while Marvin plays doting dad in boardshorts.
The couple, married since 2012, shared envy-inducing snaps: kids splashing in infinity pools, camel rides through the desert, and sunset yacht cruises with skyline views. "Sunning it up before the big day," Rochelle captioned one post, tagging luxury spa treatments and high tea at the Burj Al Arab. It's a far cry from UK downpours – think 30°C heat versus sleet – as they gear up for Santa with beachfront feasts of lobster and baklava.
Simon Cowell and Lauren's Barbados Glamour
Meanwhile, Simon Cowell and fiancée Lauren Silverman are soaking up Barbados vibes at Sandy Lane, the island's ultra-exclusive enclave for A-listers. The Britain's Got Talent mogul, rarely seen sans shades, posted rare family shots: son Eric, 10, building sandcastles, Lauren in a plunging white swimsuit, and baby girl Ruby lounging in a £5K beach cabana.
Their £50K-per-week villa rental boasts private butlers, infinity pools overlooking turquoise waves, and fly-in chef menus of flying fish and rum punch. Cowell, ever the workaholic, squeezed in Zoom calls between paddleboarding and Eric's kite-surfing lessons. "Ditching the cold for Christmas warmth," he quipped, amid rumors of Lauren's vow renewal hints with a massive diamond upgrade.
Why Celebs Are Ditching UK Christmas
Both escapes highlight a celeb trend: fleeing Britain's festive gloom for guaranteed sun. Post-Covid travel booms and private jet ease make it simple – Rochelle via Emirates first class, Cowell on his Gulfstream. It's not just luxury; it's family focus amid work whirlwinds: Rochelle's TV slots, Simon's talent hunts.
Yet backlash brews: eco-critics slam carbon footprints, while fans gush over aspirational glow-ups. As UK families brave turkey and tinsel in the rain, these stars toast palm trees and piña coladas. Merry Christmas from the Medinas
