Jude Law Breaks Hearts As He Reveals ‘That Cottage’ From His 2006 Christmas Film The Holiday Doesn’t Exist: ‘I Just Burst the Bubble, Sorry’

As a dedicated follower of all things Jude Law and rom-coms, I must admit that my heart skipped a beat when I heard the news about The Holiday‘s Rosehill Cottage not existing. It was like finding out that Santa Claus isn’t real or that there’s no such thing as a free lunch!


In a recent interview on BBC Radio 2’s The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show, Jude Law, who charmed audiences as a father of two in the beloved 2006 film The Holiday alongside Cameron Diaz, Kate Winslet, and Jack Black, shattered fans’ dreams by disclosing that the picture-perfect Rosehill Cottage depicted in the movie is merely fictional. This means it isn’t hidden away in the picturesque English countryside.

Law expressed that he truly finds it magnificent, to be honest,” he said about the movie’s enthusiastic fans who watch the film each Christmas without fail.

In the discussion about renting the enchanting Surrey cottage that Iris’s character resided in on Winslet’s show, Law unexpectedly disclosed, “That cottage isn’t real.” This information, though not entirely surprising, left hosts Zoe Ball and Kerry Goldiman in a state of shock, prompting dramatic responses from them.

The director, being quite meticulous, is Nancy Meyers. She thoroughly inspected the entire region but couldn’t find the quaint, storybook cottage that she desired. Instead, she leased a field and sketched her own design, then commissioned someone to construct it.

In a surprising turn of events, it was disclosed that the scenes showing the cottage, frequently dressed in snow to give the impression of winter, were filmed in England, while the indoor sequences were captured in LA about three months afterward. This astonishing fact left Ball and Goldiman stunned, causing them to cover their ears, hoping to shield themselves from any additional behind-the-scenes secrets Law intended to unveil.

Goldman implored him to halt, and Law, feeling overwhelmed, did the same by covering his ears. Ball, unable to endure any more, echoed this plea, expressing that they had all had enough. The information Law disclosed was too distressing for them.

“I just burst the bubble! Sorry!” Law added with a sultry grin.

Fans were equally unwelcoming of the insights shared by Law.

In the comments on BBC Radio 2’s Instagram post, someone wrote, “And that’s how Jude Law supposedly stole Christmas.” A second fan responded, “I’m sorry, Jude… but it’s not true and never will be… you can’t shatter my beliefs.” A third movie enthusiast argued, “He’s just pretending, I don’t care what he claims, it’s all a facade.” A fourth person quickly dismissed Law’s statement, commenting, “We didn’t need to hear that.

Instead, numerous online users found themselves surprised that the show’s hosts seemed unaware the cottage was merely a set, since photos and comprehensive details can easily be found by simply searching on Google.

It’s important not to overlook, Meyers, that the meticulous director Law spoke of long ago disclosed the fact that the cottage was erected on an empty plot. Furthermore, she pointed out that, despite being a popular destination for tourists during its existence, the charming abode is now non-existent.
