The exciting news was announced last month, with Mary saying she was "absolutely overwhelmed". She was included in the Queen's Birthday Honours and will be rewarded for her services to broadcasting.
However, the 85-year-old cooking expert admitted that she had one bittersweet wish following the exciting news - she would have loved her late parents and brother to share the moment with her.

"I am absolutely overwhelmed to receive this very great honour," she said. "For most of my life I have been lucky enough to follow my passion to teach cookery through books and the media. I just wish my parents and brothers were here to share my joy, as my only achievement at school was just one O-level in cookery of course!"
The star continued: "However, I am sure they are looking down and smiling. I will celebrate with my husband and family very soon."
