The 28-year-old reality star has four-year-old daughter Nelly and 21-month-old son Arthur with her fiancé Greg Shepherd, and the couple want both kids to play a part in their special day.

She exclusively told BANG Showbiz: "So Nelly is going to be flower girl and Arthur will be page boy. It will be so lovely to have them there at our wedding."

While preparation is ongoing for the ceremony, the focus is on Christmas for now and Billie is looking forward to hosting both families this year.

She added: "This year I have both mine and Greg's families at our house for Christmas so there is going to be about 35 of us.

"I'm doing the cooking with the help of my mum and my Nan who are both really good cooks. It will be a really fun day but I'll be sad to miss Samantha as she is going away for Christmas this year."

Billie was speaking at the Thorntons Cheeky Elf Academy launch event in London, and she will be treating her kids to them as stocking fillers.

Revealing what gifts she has planned for her children, she said: "Just the usual really, toys, clothes, chocolate. Thorntons have brought out these gorgeous cheeky elves which make amazing stocking fillers.

"One thing I haven't got though is a puppy for Nelly. She is desperate for one but I say to her, 'who will look after it while you're at school?' and she just says, 'Nanny will!' Haha!"

Looking to 2019, Billie admitted she hasn't set herself a new year's resolution yet, but she's glad she stuck to the goal she set herself for 2018.

She said: "Hmm I've not thought about it yet - last year my new year's resolution was to set a date and start planning the wedding and I am so pleased I actually managed to stick to it. I'll have to have a think what it could be for 2019."
