Home Truths with Joan Collins – find out why she never misses home…

Kick off my footwear – whether or not they’re ballet flats or boots – they arrive off. I’ve at all times accomplished it. 

I notably just like the morning. My husband makes us a espresso – we like prompt espresso – imagine it or not – I’ll then learn three or 4 newspapers in mattress and watch some morning TV. 

Since I spent my life working, since I used to be 17, it’s good and stress-free to do this.

Within the south of France. We attempt to go to my place each summer season. It’s extremely stress-free. There’s no site visitors, it’s proper in the course of the hills of Provence and has a improbable view. I can see the ocean within the distance and rolling hills round. It balms the soul.

In France, a bottle of water, a hairbrush and a fan.  

In London, about eight books, three or 4 framed pictures of all my kids and a field of Kleenex.

Peter Jones (a.okay.a John Lewis & Companions). It really works for me. 

It’s near the place I stay, it’s established and it has virtually all the things you would possibly want.

Poinsettias, white or pale peach roses and lilies. 

I’ve floral decorations within the residence all yr spherical, as many flowers as attainable, which I alter with the seasons. 

Within the spring and summer season, I’ve gentle colored flowers then at Christmas, I’ll have deep purple flowers as a lot as attainable.

I’m not eager on chores. My mom by no means taught me to iron and I can prepare dinner… however I’m not eager on it!

I like entertaining. I not too long ago hosted a party for my daughter. We had 11 folks sitting across the eating room desk – it was a little bit of a squash!

I simply don’t like being round numerous folks, so I want to both go to pals’ homes, have pals to my home or go to eating places, which we do rather a lot.

It varies. I prefer to have one thing on the TV, I don’t just like the clean, black display screen, so if I’m not watching the information, I’ll have Eighties’ music movies on MTV.

I don’t. I miss my household however I don’t miss my residence. By no means miss something that may’t miss you! 

I like my properties, I nurture them and I continually transfer the furnishings, the photographs and the objects. I consider them fondly however I don’t miss them as a result of the one which I’m in is often so pretty.
