I’m a mum-of-12, I found the cutest Squishmallow dupes for under £7
A SUPERMUM with 12 kids has shared some of her best buys for over the festive period.
Zoe Sullivan, 46, husband Ben, 49, and their dozen children make up one of the Scotland‘s biggest families.
The supermum reckons these toys are a great bargain[/caption] This year’s Humbug character is proving popular[/caption]The couple are parents to Elisabeth, 19, Olivia, 18, Noah, 14, Evangeline, 12, Tobias, 11, Agnes, seven, Joseph, six, Florence, two, and two sets of twins – Charlotte and Isabelle, 16, and Leah and Erin, eight.
The bumper brood live in a six-bedroom house in Burghead, Moray, where they regularly document their busy lives on their YouTube channel.
And this week Zoe visited Aldi to stock up on some of the family‘s festive favourite treats.
But while she was checking out all the food on offer, she came across a brilliant bargain that’s ideal for a youngster this Christmas.
The adorable Squishees are a super soft dupe for Squishmallows, which normally retail at around £20.
They come in a few different characters, including the new black and white striped Humbug. And they only cost £6.99.
Zoe said: “They have these Kevin the Carrot, sort of Squishmallow things and the Bah Humbug Christmas ones, which are quite cute.”
And Aldi says of the toys: “Uncover our top-secret toys before they’re gone!
“Kevin and Katie are here to save the day. Snuggle up with Kevin, Katie and the Humbugs Squishees this Christmas, collect the whole gang for the ultimate Kevin the Carrot fan or treat yourself.”
It wasn’t the only festive bargain that Zoe was impressed by.
The self-confessed chocolate addict loves the little Christmas choccy lollies from the budget supermarket, which she said are a nice, occasional after-dinner treat for the kids.
And they cost just £1.79 for 10.
Zoe also says the chocolate Santa is a great buy. It’s £1.49, which is around the same price as other shops, but the mega mum reckons Aldi’s is bigger than the competition.
Meanwhile, the family recently revealed 14 brilliant, bargain stocking fillers to keep the kids happy.
Watch the moment BBC star asks MAFS UK’s Emma and Nathan if THEY’RE getting together – and they swerve the question
MARRIED At First Sight UK’s Emma Barnes and Nathan Campbell swerved an awkward question during an interview.
The MAFS duo joined BBC’s David Garmston for a chat on regional Points West programme – covering the West of England.
Married At First Sight stars Emma and Nathan laughed off an unexpected interview question[/caption] Nathan married Lacey Martin on the show – but the couple later split[/caption] Emma’s marriage to Caspar Todd also came to an end[/caption]Describing the pair as “beautiful people”, David asked about any romance possibility between them.
He queried: “Could you perhaps see something together for both of you?”
Amused, the reality stars laughed off such an idea, swerving the notion.
An incredulous Emma said: “Nathan and I?
“We are only down the road, but no, no. We’re like brothers and sisters.”
While Nathan quipped: “Slipped that one in there Dave, didn’t ya.”
After seeing the pair’s giggly reaction, David joked: “Don’t act as if it’s an amazing thought!”
Married At First Sight viewers saw 24-year-old Nathan marry 27-year-old Lacey Martin.
The couple later split after filming, but had still been together by the end of the experiment.
Our source told The Sun: “Nathan and Lacey really tried to make their relationship work in the real world but it just fizzled after a while.
“The final vows were filmed in February and they were still going strong in April when the reunion was shot, but since then they have called in quits.
“They were both sad it didn’t work out, but sadly it wasn’t meant to be.
“It’s also a big blow for fans who were really invested in their relationship.”
As for Emma, she tied the knot with gardener Caspar Todd on the E4 show.
Caspar didn’t hold back about his initial attraction – or lack of it – to Emma.

Emma and Nathan were amused by the idea of a potential romance[/caption]80s sex symbol, 57, unrecognisable 39 years after stunning princess role in cult classic and marrying A-list actor’s son
AN 80s movie star, who was a sex symbol 39 years ago, looks almost totally unrecognisable.
Known for starring in cult classic flick Legend as Princess Lili, the actress is now 57 years of age and looks totally different after marrying and divorcing an A-List actor’s son.
Mia Sara looks very different from her starring roles in 80s and 90s flicks[/caption] Mia has horses, with the star often posing with them on social media[/caption] Mia shares a son with a famous A-Lister’s son[/caption] Mia starred in Legend as Princess Lili[/caption] Mia shot to fame in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, which served as her breakthrough role[/caption]Mia Sarapochiello is the actress in question, and she was born on June 19, 1967. She is known professionally as Mia Sara.
The American actress made her film debut as Princess Lili in the 1985 fantasy film Legend before having a huge breakthrough role in a beloved comedy flick.
Mia’s breakthrough role came when she starred as Sloane Peterson in the comedy film Ferris Bueller’s Day Off a year after her previous role in 1986.
In Legend, Mia’s character was fresh-faced and innocent-looking with curly brunette locks.
Meanwhile, in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, her character was a little older and more of a sex symbol.
These days, Mia looks very different from her acting heyday, with the famous actress still rocking her brunette hair 39 years down the line.
On her Instagram page, which has a handle of @miasarawrites, she has more than 12,000 followers and has posted 196 snaps.
Commenting on a snap of Mia, which was shared in 2017, one fan gushed, “Ma’am you’re so beautiful like an angel.”
“Your joy is contagious,” added another who was referring to Mia’s huge grin as she posed between two horses.
“You are ADORABLE,” swooned a third.
A fourth then said, “Your joy is palpable!”
And a fifth penned, “Cutie pie dreamboat snuggle face.”
More recently, Mia has shared snaps of her horses, her family, and old vintage snaps of her family.
A-LIST LOVERS
The actress, who hails from New York, also portrayed Melissa Walker in the science fiction film Timecop back in 1994, with the role even winning her the Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actress.
Mia Sara's Best-Known Starring Roles
Some of Mia's best-known roles in movie and TV are...
Princess Lili in Legend
Sloane Peterson in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
Alice Spangler in Apprentice to Murder
Melissa Walker in Timecop
Princess Langwidere in Dorothy and the Witches of Oz
Sarah Krantz in The Life of Chuck

After her breakthrough success, Mia went on to get married to a famous A-Lister’s son.
In March 1996, Sara married Jason Connery, son of actor Sean Connery after they met on the set of Bullet to Beijing the year prior.
In June 1997, the couple welcomed a son, with them welcoming Dashiell Connery on June 3.
Dashinell followed in his father’s footsteps, and the now 27-year-old is an actor known for starring in Outcry, Pandemic and Tommy’s Honour.
HEARTBREAK AND NEW BEGINNINGS
But Mia and Jason were not to last. They got divorced in 2002.
During a previous interview with The Times, Jason spoke out about how the divorce was a shock and how he found it hard.
“I suddenly saw all the parallels between my dad, my mum, and me, because they were both actors — like my ex and I,” he said at the time.
Sara then moved on with Brian Henson, with the couple welcoming a daughter in 2005.
The couple then wed in 2010.
After welcoming her daughter and getting hitched, Mia made a shocking confession.
“I was a very unhappy actress,” she revealed to The Cossack Review in 2016.
“It was something I felt I could do, and I needed to work, and I got lucky at the get go, however I was never going to be the kind of actress I admire, because I just didn’t have the drive for the process.”
