The Fifth Harmony member is heading home to San Antonio, Texas, to spend the holiday season with her family, and has said she can’t wait to gorge on homemade Mexican food and the Christmas-themed cookies she makes every year with her dad, Jerry.
She said: "I'll definitely eat lots of tamales, make lots of queso and Mexican food. I also love to make Christmas cookies with my dad and my little cousin so definitely still doing that.”
Ally also admitted her family have already decked their home out in “thousands of lights”, as she said she’s excited to spend the “special” time of year with her loved ones.
She added: "My dad has thousands of lights on the house already. It looks like a winter wonderland and just being together, watching movies, spending time, cooking, baking, that's what's so special for me.”
Alongside spending Christmas with her family, the ‘Work From Home’ hitmaker is also giving back to those in need, as she recently surprised a 12-year-old fan named Caitlin, who battled a rare form of leukaemia.
Ally - who was inspired to meet Caitlin through the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS) - told People magazine: "I was so moved and inspired and we were so connected because we had so many similarities. She said that Fifth Harmony's music got her through and that was something that was so powerful and so beautiful. It was such a beautiful blessing to surprise her, to make her smile. she really touched my life.
"I cannot imagine what it's like to go through that, but with the LLS, you're not alone and they really root these patients on. I was lucky to get to know Caitlin's story and her bravery and strength."
