She said: "He hadn't been home for a few weekends so I thought I'd do roast lamb because it's his favourite...
"I can remember Will walking through the door on that Friday night and asking 'Mum, who's coming?' And I said, 'It's for you, it's so lovely to have you home and Annabel is here and Tom too, so we had a nice family meal."
