Mark Wright has shown off his gruesome head wound after falling during the night on holiday in Vegas, insisting that he "wasn't drunk" and that he's "absolutely fine". The TOWIE star, 37, updated his Instagram followers from his first class seat on the flight home from Vegas to London.

In a video posted to his Stories, Mark said: "Another year done. F1 in Vegas. What an experience. I'm coming home with a little scar. For those that are asking on my Instagram, I fell in the bathroom. I wasn't drunk. It was in the middle of the night, half asleep. Needed a few stitches but I'm all good, absolutely fine.

Mark went on to share his excitement about reuniting with his wife, Michelle Keegan, 37, and thanked his friends in Vegas for their hospitality. He said: "On my way home to see the wife. I just want to say a quick thanks to Palms Casino Resorts, also Fontainebleau. Incredible new property in Vegas. F1 as well - thank you so much. A massive thank you for my man Steve Weiser. What a guy - setting it all up and giving us an unforgettable week. But now it's home time for Christmas. Can't wait to see my loved ones. Until next time, Vegas. Peace out."

The TV star entertained himself on the flight by watching Home Alone. It comes after he and wife Michelle unveiled the iconic Christmas decorations at their £3.5m Essex mansion, and it's been compared to the Home Alone house for the second year in a row. Pulling out all the stops, the couple have completely transformed their lavish pad into a magical winter wonderland.

Taking to their dedicated home Instagram account on Sunday (10 November), the star-studded couple shared a video to reveal their spectacular 2024 Christmas decorations. In the caption, they wrote: "It’s that time of year again!! The best time of the year!! Just when you think @4.seasonevents can’t do any better…. Killed it."

The video starts at the front of the sprawling property, showing fairy lights fitted around each window, plus the length of the roof. A huge light-up wreath sits pride of place above a large window while three Christmas trees are above the front door which is fitted with a stunning wintery garland, complete with oversized baubles and lights.

Other Christmas trees decorate the front with two light-up reindeer adding to the festive scene. Inside, their lobby is met with a huge Christmas tree adorned with more baubles, lights and stars, while decorative presents sit underneath. At the bottom of their spiral staircase are giant red and silver baubles on one side and on the other, two giant stars. Their bannister is fitted with a garland boasting baubles, bows, and lights, with their red, green, gold and silver colour theme followed throughout every festive feature.

Fans raced to comment on their spectacular decorations as one wrote: "Wow looks amazing." A second penned: "Absolutely gorgeous & just how I would do it…if I could!" A third noted: "Looks incredible," and another simply wrote: "Wow wow wow." One more labelled it: "Sooooo stunning", while another said: "Absolutely love this."

Others were quick to reference Home Alone, as it had been done last year, with one commenting: "The modern day Home Alone house! So beautiful." "This reminds me of home alone house but better stunning," said another, and "It’s giving McCallister and I’m here for it," one more added.
