Despite the weather being hot, Elizabeth – who has a nine-year-old son Damian from a previous relationship - and the Warne family have decided to go with a traditional English meal and have a roast turkey with all the trimmings.

The mother-of-one said: "Thanks for all the Aussie Xmas food advice: we're going to attempt a trad English one. Future mother in law searching for an organic turkey. (sic)"
