Gemma Alster Shares Her Go-To Picks

We sat down with IG's favourite stay-at-home mum to get the inside scoop on Mother's Day from the expert herself. From dropping hints for Addy The Daddy to Gigi's TGT picks, read on for the S.A.H.M's guide to Mother's Day.

WHAT ARE YOU EXPECTING FROM ADDY THE DADDY?

I have to say, he might not be super romantic (he's not the best on Valentine's Day) but he has made every Mother's Day since our eldest, Gigi, was born really special. He's always got up with her and brought me a coffee in bed with cards to open. This year, as my first Mothers Day being a mum of 2, I would imagine he'll probably get them both up, feed them breakfast and let me sleep until Gigi is desperate to come and jump on me. He'll probably make me breakfast, not let me do anything around the house and then take us somewhere cute for lunch. He's a good one. All I want is just a cute day, the 4 of us.

WHAT ARE THE GIGI-APPROVED TGT GIFTS FOR THE S.A.H.M?

Hmm, Gigi likes anything with her name on it, so I guess anything with my name written on it? Or maybe just ‘Gigi and Romy’s mum’ because that’s how I’m known nowadays! (Half) joking aside, Gigi’s actual perfect idea of a special treat or present is having biscuits in bed for breakfast with mummy and daddy, so I have a feeling my Mothers day will be sitting in bed eating biscuits with Addy and my girls.

WHAT SHOULD GEORGE'S FUTURE WIFE (VS SUPER MODEL) BRING TO MOTHERS DAY LUNCH?

Can I just say, this really got out of hand didn't it... It started off just me trying to be a nice sister-in-law helping him find a girlfriend, maybe someone to bring on holiday with us, maybe a wife, who knows. I did not expect Victoria's Secret models to be answering to #findgeorgeawife and I definitely did not expect to be sitting next to one on the beach. Poor Adam with his 5ft nothing wife! Going back to the question, I think if she brought her full skincare, hair and gym regimes to lunch, George and Adam's mum (and I) would be very happy and grateful.

WHAT ARE YOU GIFTING YOUR MUM (I.E THE ULTIMATE MILF) THIS MOTHERS DAY?

Honestly what do you buy the ultimate MILF?! My mum always says she doesn't want presents, she just wants love (but she definitely still wants a present and god forbid we forget a card. My brother once did about 7 years ago and she's never forgotten it. So I will definitely be getting a card (because I still want to live) and I'll also get her something personalised with MILF. Maybe a wash bag or a cap that she can wear to golf (golf mum era) She pretends she doesn't like to be known as one but she absolutely loves it. She's in her MILF era. She needs to own it.
