Gemma Atkinson sparked a sweet fan reaction at the weekend when she posted a carousel of heartwarming family photos.
The radio host, who is engaged to Strictly star Gorka Marquez, opted to share an adorable photo of her baby boy Thiago in addition to a sweet snap of her daughter Mia, four, posing proudly alongside doting dad Gorka.
In the first image, Gemma, 38, looked every inch the doting mother as she cradled her bundle of joy from the comfort of her family home. Her tiny tot Thiago, whom she welcomed in July this year, looked adorable in a comfy white sleepsuit peppered with an array of colourful animals.
Gemma, meanwhile, dressed down in a simple chocolate-hued T-shirt. In a second photo, meanwhile, Mia was pictured flashing a peace sign as she enjoyed a special moment with Gorka.
