Call the Midwife's Helen George doesn't often share family life insights on her Instagram account, and there are only a few rare photos of her children Wren and Lark. But eagle-eyed fans of the star may have noticed that her private lounge has had a subtle glow up.

See the star's living room switch up from muted yellow to bold yellow!

Posing for a photo ahead of her appearance on The One Show, Helen stood in front of a black and cream fireplace with festive garlands draped across the mantelpiece and a black peacock fireguard in front.

The walls were a soft yellow and there was an abstract painting of giraffes hanging on the wall. The actress previously revealed that the art was a tribute to her firstborn, writing on Instagram, Helen penned: "Thank you so much @drawricodraw for this beautiful painting for our daughter, it's stunning."

In a more recent photo, taken in the same room, some fans may have spotted the changes. It appears as though Helen and Jack have braved a brighter shade of yellow for the walls – in keeping with the rest of their very bold and vibrant home.

Another change is what's above the mantle – where a painting used to hang there is now a vintage style mirror. At the time the photo was taken, the room was also laden with sweetly wrapped presents, a number one balloon and her youngest daughter Lark celebrating her first birthday!

The family have a beautiful kitchen too 

The couple moved into the property in 2020 and they have added creativity to every corner since and now enjoy a very chic traditional kitchen and a beautiful green bedroom with antique pieces. Sharing a photo of her wooden chest of drawers in her room, she wrote: "Loving our new bedroom chest. Cheap as chips from an auction and surrounded by Jack’s Dad’s art."
