Pauline Hanson was certainly full of the Yuletide spirit this year.
The One Nation leader, 71, took to Instagram on Christmas Eve to share a video that featured a very surprising co-star.
The video showed Pauline sitting on her lounge room floor with her daughter Lee, 41, who had made a surprise visit from Tasmania.
However, taking pride of place in the video was a fully grown reindeer that sat nonchalantly in the middle of the space as Pauline and Lee casually rested on its back.
‘Well, it’s Christmas. How lucky are we?’ Pauline began the clip.
‘Here I have a live reindeer in my lounge room and I’m spending this special time with my daughter and my grandchildren, so it’s been wonderful to have this opportunity to have this live reindeer in my lounge room.’

Continuing, Pauline offered a heartfelt festive sentiment.
‘I just want to send this message to all Australians,’ she said.
‘Spend this time with your loved ones, with your family, with friends, with your neighbours. People that you want to be with.’
She added: ‘It is a special time of the year and, from my daughter and I, we want to say thank you for all your support, everything you’ve done for us, and we just want to send you the Christmas message, don’t we, darling?’ before Lee wholeheartedly agreed.
Captioning the festive post, Pauline also gave an insight into how she will be spending her break.
‘I’ll take a few days off to spend with the family and swim a few laps in the pool over these typically hot summer days before hitting the road again on January 2 across Tasmania,’ she wrote.
‘Be safe on the roads these holidays and I’ll see many of you on the long list of stops we have planned in the New Year across the country.’
The post was met with a flurry of comments from followers, including former Married At First Sight star Dean Wells.

‘WTF?? Is that real?? Love you Pauline! You are the GOAT,’ Dean wrote.
2025 MAFS alum Dave Hand also chimed in with a similar: ‘You’re the goat – or reindeer. Either way, merry Christmas Granny P.’
Another follower offered: ‘Merry Christmas to you both. That’s an impressive reindeer BTW.’
A fourth summed up the sentiment of many, saying that Pauline had racked up major cool points for posing with a reindeer.
‘She is officially the coolest person in the world… a f***ing reindeer in your lounge room… are you kidding me,’ they enthused.
Pauline received a similarly enthusiastic reaction last month when Kyle & Jackie O producer Pete Deppeler spent a day in Parliament House as her intern.
A video of Pete’s day in the office was uploaded to the Kyle & Jackie O Instagram, and followers overwhelmingly resonated with Pauline’s management style.
In fact, many suggested the controversial senator should take on the country’s top job.

‘Love you intern Pete,’ one fan gushed. ‘The show would not be the same without you! And let’s put Pauline Hanson as Prime Minister so we can get things done in our country!’
Another chimed in with a similar: ‘Pauline PM please!!!’ echoing the sentiment of many.
Others were quick to praise Pauline for her self-effacing presentation in the clip.
‘Pauline is so genuine,’ one listener wrote, while another suggested: ‘She looks legit fun to be around.’
