"We won't be going out other than for a walk (if the weather permits - it's currently pouring), so the Fletcher Family will be found under this blanket for the foreseeable. Thank you Vernon for being as thoughtful as ever!

"Full disclosure - this blanket has also been pinched to build a den... seems everything is fair game in this house."

In response to her post, Vernon sweetly wrote: "A cashmere hug for Lady Hugger!!!" His wife, Tess Daly, also reacted: "AHHH! Those @johnstonsofelgin blankets are the BEST!" along with love heart emojis.
