JESSIE is a young woman living and working in London. She is from New Zealand, and her family thinks she's just nannying for a wealthy family. What they don't know is that the family's son, TOM, is actually Jessie's boyfriend. In the latest episode of Starstruck, it's Christmas time and Tom's family has returned to their estate in the countryside. In an effort to keep her relationship with Tom secret and avoid any awkward questions from his family, Jessie pretends to be the family's driver.
The episode begins with Jessie, dressed in a chauffeur's uniform, picking up the family from the train station and driving them to the estate. Along the way, she has to navigate the winding country roads, avoid hitting sheep, and deal with Tom's sister, who is not a fan of Jessie's. When they arrive at the estate, Jessie is tasked with helping to set up the Christmas decorations. She quickly realizes that she knows nothing about English holiday traditions, and fumbles her way through putting up lights and tinsel.
As the days pass, Jessie tries to keep a low profile around the family while still spending time with Tom. They sneak away to make out in the stables and exchange Christmas gifts in secret. However, their sneaking around is cut short when Tom's ex-girlfriend shows up at the estate. Jessie becomes jealous and starts to question how serious Tom is about their relationship.
In an effort to win Jessie back and prove his love, Tom plans a surprise Christmas date for the two of them. He takes her out to a local pub, where they have drinks and dance to Christmas carols. Things seem to be going well until they run into Tom's parents, who are surprised to see Jessie outside of her uniform. Jessie has to come up with a quick lie about why she's dressed up, and her nerves get the best of her. She accidentally reveals that she is dating Tom and is not just their driver.
The news spreads quickly through the family, and Jessie is forced to confront the reality of the situation. She must come clean to Tom's parents and explain why she's been lying to them. She's also concerned about what her own family will think when they find out about her relationship with Tom. The episode ends with Tom and Jessie talking about their future together, and Jessie realizing that she might be more in love with Tom than she thought.
Overall, the Christmas episode of Starstruck is full of holiday cheer, romantic moments, and a healthy dose of drama. Fans of the show will be eager to see where Jessie and Tom's relationship goes from here, and how they'll navigate the challenges of their different backgrounds and families.
