Joan Collins recently shared glimpses of her Christmas Day celebration on Instagram, surrounded by her husband Percy Gibson, her seldom-seen brother Bill, and other family members. 

At 90 years old, Joan radiated festive charm, donning a vibrant red roll-neck jumper, accessorized with a striking cross necklace and sparkling earrings. 

Her dark hair was elegantly pulled back into a chic bun, and she later added a touch of luxury with a brown fur gilet.

Percy, Joan's husband, also joined in the festive fun, posing playfully under the Christmas tree in a fur Santa hat.

 "He takes care of everything," Joan said, praising his role in managing their finances and looking after her children. She added, "He's the love of my life. It's a great marriage, a great relationship."

The couple's romance began with a strong foundation of friendship and deepened over time. Their decision to marry was partly influenced by a life-changing event when a last-minute change of plans saved Percy from being near the World Trade Center on 9/11.
