Lucy Alexander, who is soon set to appear permanently on Channel 4's A Place in the Sun, always has her family close to her heart.
The 53 year old, who is known for appearing on Homes Under the Hammer, is married to ex-Premier League footballer Stewart Castledine, with whom she shares two children, daughter Kitty, and son, Leo. Kitty has found fame in her own right, playing the role of Penny Branning, cousin of Lauren Branning, on BBC's EastEnders.
She burst onto our screens in January 2024, hitting things off in a drugs mule storyline as she stashed drugs into her cousin, Lauren's (Jacqueline Jossa) suitcase in Paris. As they made their way back to Walford, Lauren was arrested at the airport after sniffer dogs detected her luggage.
Lucy and Kitty clearly share a close bond, often featuring on each other's Instagram pages, and they even took part in a joint photoshoot together last year. On Monday, 25 March, the whole family, plus a guest, enjoyed an outing to the UK Special Screening of new Netflix film, The Beautiful Game.
Their family bond was clear to see as everyone coordinated their outfits in black, whilst Lucy added a blazer over the top in a striking shade of burnt orange. Lucy took to Instagram to share a reel of the night out, as she wrote in the caption: "A night out with the family.
"Thank you @netflixuk for the screening invite of #thebeautifulgame - lovely venue @hamyard_hotel really know how to get everyone together! A brilliant film highlighting the desperate situation of homelessness in the world and how sport & football can have a positive effect and bring a community together. Great to have all the cast of actors on stage ( love Bill Nighy ) - we all enjoyed it. Go see the movie - out soon.
"Thanks to Story Box uk for inviting us & making it possible #accessibleseats"
Earlier in March, it was announced that Lucy would be joining A Place in the Sun permanently, after previously appearing as a guest presenter on the show.
Sharing her exciting news, Lucy said: "I am now a part of the A Place in the Sun family!" She told The Sun: "I've got quite a few episodes coming up with them this year, I am definitely a part of the family which has been lovely!"
She will also be appearing on A Place in the Sun's new spin-off, What Happens Next. Lucy told the outlet: "They've asked me to do their brand new show which is a re-visit. As my lovely couple bought their house, I'm now doing a let's go back and see how they are getting on!
"I'm travelling about once a month at the moment for A Place in the Sun which is fantastic and I'm really, really enjoying it!"
