She shared how much she enjoyed hearing the mother and daughters tell each year about their Christmas traditions revolving around this beloved movie.
He even said fans would talk to him more about Vacation than about Titanic, the movie that launched his fame.
She didn’t expect the bond between mother and daughter to be this strong throughout the movie; she said: ‘It’s so nice that mothers and daughters come up to me at the grocery store and say: ‘Oh, Kate, we love the Holidays so much, it’s our little ritual at Christmas.’
‘There are things they eat every year. They sit and watch. It’s a tradition and I love it.’
This Morning will air on Christmas Day at 10am on ITV1 and ITVX.
