Welcome to the HouseGoesHome Celebrity Valentine’s Day edition.
Some of the biggest news of the day is that Christina Aguilera got engaged and Simon Cowell became a dad! Simon tweeted: “Very happy to say Eric was born at 17.45pm. Healthy and handsome. Lauren in great shape. Thanks for all of your kind messages. Named after my dad.”
Hope you had a good one, whether you’d the type to celebrate or, like me, more likely to run a mile, like in this blog post I wrote called Sucking The Romance Out Of Valentine’s Day (which ISN’T about oral action of the raunchy kind … dodgy title now I come to think of it … ah, the benefit of hindsight)
On with the show …
And let’s start with my absolute favourite pics from the day, posted on Instagram by Mariah Carey. Ah Mariah, there are no words for how awesome you are, so I’ll just stick with the pictures and your captions …
“Waiting for my Valentine”
“Still waiting”
“Champagne, bubbles + candy and no Valentine yet…”
