0:06:57 > 0:06:59Christmas is a time for surprises

0:06:59 > 0:07:03so I'm on my way to The Noah's Ark Children's Hospital For Wales

0:07:03 > 0:07:06to meet a wonderful lady who, I've been told,

0:07:06 > 0:07:08deserves a Christmas treat.

0:07:08 > 0:07:11Tonight the Children's Hospital in Cardiff are holding

0:07:11 > 0:07:15a special celebration ball and I have an extra ticket,

0:07:15 > 0:07:19so here I am today to surprise a very special lady called Fran,

0:07:19 > 0:07:22who's been through an incredibly difficult 12 months

0:07:22 > 0:07:25and I'm hoping she's going to be my plus one.

0:07:27 > 0:07:31Last Christmas Fran's daughter Felicity was taken into hospital,

0:07:31 > 0:07:34diagnosed with Guillain Barre syndrome.

0:07:35 > 0:07:38It's a rare and life-threatening illness

0:07:38 > 0:07:41which left the two-year-old locked inside her own body.

0:07:42 > 0:07:46Now a year on, with the support of her family and the staff

0:07:46 > 0:07:51at the hospital, Felicity is making incredible progress.

0:07:51 > 0:07:53Fran has no idea that I'm here to whisk her away

0:07:53 > 0:07:57so let's just hope that she accepts my invitation.

0:07:57 > 0:07:59Come on, let's go see her.

0:08:01 > 0:08:04- Hello.- Hello.- Hi, Fran.

0:08:04 > 0:08:07- It's Katherine Jenkins! - Hello, I'm Katherine.- Hello.

0:08:07 > 0:08:11- And this must be Fliss!- OK. - Look at you, gorgeous girl.

0:08:11 > 0:08:14Well, Fran, I've heard so much about you,

0:08:14 > 0:08:17you've been through an incredibly difficult 12 months

0:08:17 > 0:08:21and that you've done an amazing job caring for Fliss.

0:08:21 > 0:08:24We think that you deserve an extra special Christmas treat.

0:08:24 > 0:08:28Tonight I'm going to The Noah's Ark charity ball.

0:08:28 > 0:08:32We are going to whisk you away, we've got a car waiting right now.

0:08:32 > 0:08:35We're going to get a special dress for you and we're going

0:08:35 > 0:08:38to have the whole hair and make-up, glamour ready for the red carpet,

0:08:38 > 0:08:43- so I wondered if you would be my plus one?- Yes, please!

0:08:44 > 0:08:47I was so nervous that you'd say no!

0:08:49 > 0:08:52The last 12 months for Fran have been really traumatic.

0:08:52 > 0:08:55She's been here day in, day out.

0:08:55 > 0:08:58She's given up a job to care for Fliss

0:08:58 > 0:09:02and she doesn't put herself first, she puts her family first.

0:09:02 > 0:09:05So tonight will just be perfect for her.

0:09:05 > 0:09:09First stop Cardiff centre to find the perfect dress.

0:09:09 > 0:09:11- Try that one.- Yes. Great.

0:09:12 > 0:09:15- Oh!- I know.

0:09:15 > 0:09:17Definitely this colour is lovely on you.

0:09:18 > 0:09:21I love the skirt, it feels very chic.

0:09:22 > 0:09:25Oh, I love this.

0:09:25 > 0:09:27I think that's such a flattering shape.

0:09:27 > 0:09:31Well, I think the dress is sorted, shall we get you all glammed up?

0:09:33 > 0:09:36Well, that's the frock sorted. Now into hair and make up.

0:09:36 > 0:09:40So, Fran, we need to get you looking really glamorous for this evening.

0:09:40 > 0:09:42So what we're going to do is we're going to put some beautiful

0:09:42 > 0:09:45little curls into your hair and then we'll get you

0:09:45 > 0:09:47a nice, glamorous red carpet look.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50I don't feel like I deserve all the attention because

0:09:50 > 0:09:54if it wasn't for Fliss and my family being so strong

0:09:54 > 0:09:56I don't think I could have been so strong.

0:09:59 > 0:10:01Gosh, you look amazing. I can't believe...

0:10:01 > 0:10:04Your family are just going to be so proud when they see

0:10:04 > 0:10:08how gorgeous you look, so are you ready for the red carpet?

0:10:08 > 0:10:09- Go.- Have you done one before?- No.

0:10:09 > 0:10:12- I'll walk you through it.- Thank you.

0:10:17 > 0:10:19And now, with her glad rags on,

0:10:19 > 0:10:23it's time for Fran to make her grand entrance.

0:10:26 > 0:10:30Greeted by her family and friends at The Noah's Ark Children's Hospital

0:10:30 > 0:10:34For Wales, who know what an inspiration she's been.

0:10:35 > 0:10:38- How does she look?- A beauty. - Doesn't she?

0:10:42 > 0:10:44Today has been amazing.

0:10:44 > 0:10:47I've been surprised, I never thought I would have a surprise like this,

0:10:47 > 0:10:50I never thought I would be pampered like this, never thought

0:10:50 > 0:10:52I'd get to meet Katherine Jenkins.

0:10:52 > 0:10:54But, yeah, it's been amazing,

0:10:54 > 0:11:00I can't even tell you how I feel because I'm still up on cloud nine.

0:11:00 > 0:11:04- It's the best Christmas present I could have asked for.- Yay!

0:11:04 > 0:11:06- Oh, I'm so happy.- Thank you so much. Thank you so much.

0:39:56 > 0:39:59Well, now time for another festive surprise.

0:39:59 > 0:40:03When I was invited to gate-crash the Welsh winter wedding

0:40:03 > 0:40:05of Ross and Kerry Hutchins,

0:40:05 > 0:40:08there was no way that I was going to turn down the invitation.

0:40:08 > 0:40:12But not everyone knew that I was on the guest list.

0:40:16 > 0:40:20I like nothing better than a winter wedding.

0:40:20 > 0:40:22So whilst home for Christmas,

0:40:22 > 0:40:25I've been asked to make a surprise appearance

0:40:25 > 0:40:27at a very special ceremony.

0:40:27 > 0:40:29Me and Kerry, we've been together 15 years.

0:40:29 > 0:40:33And finally today is the day that we're going to get married.

0:40:33 > 0:40:35I didn't get a good night's sleep last night.

0:40:35 > 0:40:38I've been nervous, stressing about this moment.

0:40:38 > 0:40:40So I really can't wait for it to happen.

0:40:42 > 0:40:44This wedding really is a long time in coming.

0:40:44 > 0:40:47We've got two kids, and I think priorities change as that happens.

0:40:47 > 0:40:52But it's also Kerry's 40th and it'll be just a fantastic surprise.

0:40:52 > 0:40:53I've told no-one about this.

0:40:53 > 0:40:57That's been one of the hardest parts as I'm terrible at keeping a secret,

0:40:57 > 0:40:58but I'm so looking forward to it now.

0:40:58 > 0:41:00It's going to be amazing.

0:41:00 > 0:41:02The groom has hidden me away upstairs.

0:41:02 > 0:41:03And I have to tell you,

0:41:03 > 0:41:06I'm really more nervous today than I was when I sang for the Queen.

0:41:06 > 0:41:09Because at least the Queen knew I was coming!

0:41:10 > 0:41:13I am going to earn some fantastic brownie points.

0:41:13 > 0:41:15The father-in-law is a massive fan as well.

0:41:15 > 0:41:17He's going to love me forever!

0:41:42 > 0:41:45as long as you both shall live?

0:41:45 > 0:41:46I will.

0:42:28 > 0:42:31And I thought, "He's got something up his sleeve here."
