Boris and Carrie Johnson’s family day out at a safari park with their three kids Wilfred, Romy and Frank did not go to plan.
The day began with the kids following the winding paths and exploring the dinosaur statues before they hopped in the car for the driving safari. Boris wound down his window to help his daughter feed the deer, with her excitedly stating: “Eat it, deer! Eat it!”

“Close call,” remarked one follower, while another quipped: “It’s funny but they bloomin hurt lol.”
“Who was more scared, Boris or your son?!” a third joked, while many others shared their amusement at the clip, stating they were “in hysterics.”

“But I love it. I absolutely love it. I change a lot of nappies.”
Boris is also a father to four grown-up children with his second wife Marina Wheeler, Lara, Milo, Cassia and Theodore, and a daughter Stephanie from an affair with Helen Macintyre.
When asked if he was spending more time with his children after stepping down as Prime Minister in 2022, he told TalkTV: “Yes, and it’s fantastic because you know, I’ve got a very full day.
“I’m doing lots of writing. Unless I specifically tell you otherwise, I’m doing stuff for Uxbridge and doing a lot of political work but yeah, it means I can do reading to them… building things. It’s great.”

“I’m building a garage for the quad bike. Not a big quad bike, it was a miniature quad bike. They’re too small for quad bikes,” he said.
