HOLLY Willoughby has said she faces the prospect of only being able to invite either her mum or dad for Christmas.
Under the government's strict new clampdown measures no more than six people will be allowed to meet up at home.
The rules are expected to be in force for months - meaning grandparents and grandchildren may not be able to spend Christmas together.
Holly, 39, said: "What will Christmas look like? It's going to be very awkward in my house.
"I'm in a family of five so I'll have to choose between my mum and dad on Christmas Day."
Opening the discussion up to commentator Matthew Wright she added: "It's not a nice thing to look forward to, is it?"

He replied: "You can't have your parents over on Christmas Day but you can go on public transport. For the life of me, I can't make any sense of it."
Holly has three children - Chester, five, Belle, nine and Harry, 11 - with husband Dan Baldwin, 45.
That means she would have to choose between mum Lynne, 71, or dad Brian come Christmas Day - not to mention any of Dan's family members.
Breaking the new restrictions carries a £100 fine - which doubles every time you're caught out, to a maximum of £3,200.
