A MUM-OF-FOUR has revealed that she’s charging her own family for their Christmas Day roast.
Carla Bellucci, 42, has set a price of £200 per head and says her guests will be kicked out at 8:30 PM on the dot.
She is no stranger to rubbing people up the wrong way and isn’t changing her attitude for the festive season.
Last year, “Britain’s most hated mum” caused uproar when announcing that her family would need to fork out £150 each for a roast on the 25 December.
This year, she says the cost of living crisis has forced her to up the fee to £200.
And booze isn’t included, either.
“As we are in a cost of living crisis and everything has gone up, I need to cover the costs somehow,” the former glamour model, from Hertfordshire, told What’s The Jam.
“It includes a three-course meal, with a glass of champagne, but they can bring spirits and other drinks, that’s not my problem.
“Mostly friends come to mine on Christmas Day but some family members do, too.”
Carla revealed that the charge only applies to people over a certain age.
“Only the adults need to pay up, children under 16 can come for free and there’s around 10 of us,” she explained.
“Sometimes people refuse to pay and that’s totally fine with me – don’t come.
“I always ask for an RSVP to make sure I have the correct numbers, but it really doesn’t bother me in the slightest.
“I’m not here to make a profit, the cost literally covers only the food and bills.
She pointed out that contributing to the cost of the meal is the least her guests can do.
“They should be grateful I’m taking the pressure off them really – paying up is the least you could do for all the time and effort I’m putting in,” she said.
“And to anyone who doesn’t agree – get stuffed like a roasted bird.”

On the big day, her guests will be able to indulge in butternut squash soup as a starter, beef wellington, or a traditional turkey roast – with all the trimmings – as their main, and for dessert, a classic tiramisu.
Also on the itinerary are games and sharing videos from throughout the year to reflect.
But they haven’t got long.
By 8:30 PM, guests will be “kicked out” to allow the mum some quality time with her children.
Carla previously revealed that she spent £8,000 on herself during the festive season and gave her four kids nothing – despite this leaving them very upset.
This year, she’s had a change of heart and is splashing out £500 per child, as they “deserve to have everything.”
“Blu, my youngest, is so easily pleased, as she loves toys,” the mum said.
“She’s such a happy and grateful girl – all my kids are – as they have good morals that were taught by me.
“I’ve got phone upgrades for the older ones, and a few small gifts like perfumes.
“It’s hard, as they have everything because they’re so spoiled, but I will splash all I have on them so they have a wonderful Christmas.
“Life is too short.”
