The ITV star wore white face paint and green painted eyebrows as he greeted children, along with performers dressed as Little Red Riding Hood, a wolf and a clown.

It comes after Jonathan revealed the sweet reason he has now canceled his star-studded party, which was previously attended by the likes of Dame Joan Collins, Holly Willoughby, Nicole Scherzinger, Alan Carr, Rita Ora and Michael McIntyre.

Jonathan revealed he would no longer invite celebrities to his home out of respect for his daughter Betty, 33, and her battle with fibromyalgia, a condition that causes muscle pain and tenderness.

Jonathan, who also shares Harvey, 29, and Honey, 26, with wife Jane Goldman, opened up on Good Morning Britain.

He explained: ‘One of our children is not doing well… it’s fibromyalgia, which is quite debilitating. She is back at home with us and we are taking care of her.

“My daughter, we thought she had Long Covid but discovered she had Fibromyalgia, so we want to be aware of that and not have so much noise when she’s upstairs.”

Jonathan’s daughter Betty previously shared the news of her diagnosis on Instagram, writing: ‘Fibromyalgia? I hardly know her. I hereby let you know that I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia.

“Shout out to the four people who all said they thought I had fibro, turns out you were all right. There are always a lot of strange feelings associated with a new diagnosis, but this one generally feels like a relief.

“I feel like my pain is being recognized and that with this diagnosis I can find better ways to manage my pain.”

The party was canceled for two years – in 2020 due to the Covid pandemic and the following year because his daughter Betty was struggling with fibromyalgia.

When it returned in October 2022, it was held for the first time at Camden nightclub KOKO instead of Jonathan’s famous home.

Spice Girl Mel C, Katherine Ryan, Wallis Day, Joel Dommett and his model wife Hannah Cooper and Charli Howard were also on the star-studded guest list at last year’s bash.

WHAT IS FIBROMYALGIA?

Fibromyalgia is a chronic condition characterized by widespread pain and fatigue.

Research shows that up to 2.7 percent of people worldwide suffer from it, with three women for every man affected.

Fibromyalgia is often caused by trauma, such as a car accident or childbirth, but also by infections. It is unclear why this happens.

The discomfort is usually felt as pain and burning from head to toe.

And the fatigue varies from a sleepy feeling to the exhaustion caused by flu.

Severe patients are often unable to work or maintain social contacts.

The pain may be worse at times than at others and may change location, for example becoming more severe in parts of the body that are used most.

Other symptoms may include headaches; IBS; diarrhea or constipation; poor concentration; dizziness; allergies and sensitivity to stimuli, such as light or heat.

Studies suggest that the average patient waits five years for diagnosis, which is believed to be due to the fact that X-rays and other medical tests do not detect the condition.

It is generally defined as pain that lasts more than three months and affects 11 or more of the 18 tender points when pressed.

The treatment is aimed at relieving pain and promoting sleep.
