Christmas is still a couple of months off, yet Tom and Giovanna Fletcher seem to be getting in the holiday spirit early. Except, it’s not in the way you might think.
The couple, who exchanged vows in 2021, has unveiled their premature Christmas tree erection. However, they’ve put a twist on tradition, turning it into a Halloween spectacle instead of a yuletide one.
Taking to Instagram, the McFly frontrunner Tom and multi-talented Giovanna shared a video of them sprucing up their tree, with ‘It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas’ providing a merry soundtrack. But in an amusing switch-up, the tune abruptly changed to ‘This Is Halloween,’ cueing the adornment of their tree with all things eerie, from creepy baubles to ghostly lights.
The social media snippet showed the Fletchers, both aged 39, gaily embellishing their tree with macabre accessories such as skeletal lights, crinkled pumpkins, and faux arachnids, tweaking the typically joyous decor into something more suited for fright night festivities. Even a DIY Frankenstein earned its place at the pinnacle of their quirky creation.

In their caption, they jested: “When they want to put the tree up and find a loophole… Say hello to our Halloween tree! Not to be confused with a Christmas tree. Obviously. @tomfletcher #halloween #halloweendecor #notachristmastree #tree #decor xx” Despite the Fletchers appearing thrilled with their decoration, the Halloween tree sparked mixed reactions among fans. Some rushed to the comments section to applaud the creativity, while others were less enthusiastic.
Strictly Come Dancing’s Dianne Buswell showed her support, writing: “I’m all for this,” Another fan chimed in: “Love it! If anyone can find a [Christmas tree emoji] loophole… the Fletchers can. Let the festivities begin!” However, not everyone was on board with the quirky idea. One Instagram user penned: “Nooooooo not yet,” while another added: “If it makes you happy and isn’t hurting anyone… I say do it. But I am also judging you right now.”
This Christmas-turned-Halloween decoration from the pair follows Tom’s recent stint on The Voice UK, where he joined forces with bandmate Danny Jones. As the first double chair on the show, the McFly stars act as a single entity, agreeing on which singers they want to mentor, though they confess it’s not always smooth sailing.
“We had it in our contract that any arguments wouldn’t be aired,” Danny quipped. Tom added: “There was one time when Danny grabbed my hand and slammed it on the buzzer. I was undecided but Danny had already made up his mind.” When quizzed on who they’d least like to pair up with on a seat, both Danny and Tom seemed to be on the same page. “Harry,” declared Tom. “He’d dominate, he’d press it too quickly.” Danny chimed in, “He’d had sweets everywhere. And he’d be spilling stuff everywhere.” He also revealed, “We’ve not actually had time on our own without the other boys!”
