Celebrity Home Of The Year was on last night and Twitter was BET into it

Because who doesn’t love a good snoop?

CELEBRITY HOME OF the Year had everyone talking last night.

It featured senator David Norris, broadcaster Eoghan McDermott, former Xposé host Lorraine Keane, rugby player Mike Ross and author Melissa Hill.

Melissa’s place had flamingos everywhere.

Not on the lawn though because her husband would go mad, natch.

He’s also been given 17 portraits as gifts, which he hangs in his home, obvs.

And others envied other things - like Melissa's knife holder.

People loved Senator Norris' well-loved Georgian home.
