WANT to know where the stars go on their hols?
It’s not all private palm-fringed islands. These four famous faces like to get their R&R on traditional package holidays – brilliant resorts in gorgeous destinations with guaranteed sunshine, great nightlife and delicious local cuisine.

Where will you be jetting off to this summer?
Paphos in Cyprus – it’s stunningly beautiful. I went before with a friend and we went all-inclusive with Jet2holidays: all the transfers and everything else was organised, which made it totally stress free. I fell in love with the place.
What makes Paphos a go-to destination for you?
Everything! The people are all so friendly, the beaches are beautiful and the quality of the hotels is amazing.
Who will you go with this time?
My mum, Heather, and my granny, Sherryl. It will be a proper girls’ break.

DESTINATIONS
Hotel or villa?
Hotel – and we’ll go all-inclusive as that leaves more time for family fun.
Culture or nightlife?
Both. I love other cultures and food, and Rhodes Old Town has great restaurants. I’m a thrill seeker too, and there’s a waterpark in Faliraki so we can muck about like kids again!
Where will you be jetting off to this summer?
Fuerteventura – it looks so beautiful, with guaranteed sun, and it’s a short flight. My son Presley is not quite two and loves to run around, so my husband Will and I agreed no more long-haul flights until he’s older.
Who will be going?
The three of us and my parents. We love eating out together and having them with us means we get to spend quality time – and there are extra pairs of hands if needed.
Are holidays different now that you’re a mum?
Totally! We have to factor Presley into everything: we need a great hotel in a good location with child-friendly pools. I love an amazing all-inclusive resort – I don’t want to be stuck in a villa in the middle of nowhere.
Do you travel light?
Definitely not – since Presley arrived, I’m terrified we’ll leave behind something that we need for him, so I usually panic at the last minute and take lots of extra stuff!
So I need plenty of luggage allowance included with my holiday and decent cabin baggage too.
What makes a great holiday?
Good service, food and wine – shared with family. To lie with the sun on my skin and read a book… or open it, at least! And I love a sundowner by the sea somewhere with good music.

What are you most looking forward to?
The sun, as it’s not stopped raining at home! And the food – I love fresh fish and there’s loads of wonderful restaurants there.
What makes a perfect holiday?
No-stress flights and transfers, then arriving at a gorgeous hotel that has a beautiful pool but is also just moments from the beach.
Do you travel light?
Noooo – I take two outfits for every day! Luckily, with Jet2holidays you get good luggage allowances so I can take everything. My tip? Packing cubes so you can organise your clothes properly.
Where will you be jetting off to this summer?
I want to recreate the holidays I had as a kid by taking my family to Rhodes. I’ve never been there but it looks so beautiful. Golden beaches and the perfect mix of chilling, nightlife and delicious food.
I lost my daughter, Azaylia, to leukaemia in 2021 so now more than ever, family time together is priceless.
What are you looking forward to most?
I’ll really need this rest after running, cycling and kayaking 2,799 miles for the Ultraman challenge to raise funds for the Azaylia Foundation.
Also, my dad and I are history nerds, so I want to take him to the Lindos Acropolis, then the Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes.

The reality star tells us why a holiday for two floats her boat
Where will you be jetting off to this summer?
Crete – I’ve travelled a lot but I want to see plenty more of Europe this year.
Who are you going with?
My friend Kaz from Love Island. She’s always up for a holiday and she’s great company… the best!
What are you looking forward to most?
Elafonisi Beach because it’s got pink sand! I’ll also want to explore as there’s loads of ancient architecture and I love all that. I’ll be dragging Kaz round sightseeing – as well as having some fun girls’ nights out.
Liberty’s looking for a more chilled getaway
Beach or pool?
I love a boat trip, but I don’t like the creatures that live in the sea. I prefer a great pool so I can swim, relax and enjoy some cocktails.
Do you travel light?
I don’t need to! Jet2holidays has such a good luggage allowance – love that about them. You get 22kg baggage included.
What makes a perfect holiday?
Great service. I can’t cook, so a five-star Jet2holidays all-inclusive resort is ideal for me.
