A host of famous faces have taken to social media to share their festive plans and wish fans a Merry Christmas.

Coldplay, the Beckhams and the actors Tom Felton and Taron Egerton were among the British celebrities who posted messages on Instagram.


Appearing alongside his band mates Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman and Will Champion, Coldplay frontman Chris Martin thanked fans for their support.

He said: “Hello, we’re called Coldplay and this is our annual Christmas message that we haven’t done for about 10 years.

“Sorry, we’re not great at Christmas messages but what we wanted to say is thank you to everyone… and hope that wherever you are you’re OK.

“From all of us here at Coldplay incorporated we send you all the season’s greetings.”

Martin recently revealed that the band would not make any more music after 2025 but will continue to perform together.

Former singer and model Victoria Beckham posted a video of her husband David, the former England footballer, singing in front of an open fire and sporting a Santa hat.

“Does anyone love Christmas as much as my husband?” she wrote.

In the video she can be heard to say: “Oh my God, you were trying hard with that vocal.”

“Oh I’m sorry, Adele,” her husband replies jokingly.

“That really stinks,” he tells the pet.

Oscar-winning actress Reese Witherspoon also shared a collection of pictures of her family and decorated home.

“Where I want to be. With my family. By a fire. Laughing. Enjoying each other’s company,” she wrote.

“Sending you & your dearest HUGE holiday hugs ! From our family to yours.”
