Emma Willis delights fans with rare photo of eldest daughter to mark her 14th birthday

Emma Willis has shared a rare picture of her eldest daughter to celebrate the teenager turning 14.

The Voice UK presenter said she was a ‘proud’ mum as she posted a photo of Isabelle – who the family affectionately call Wizz – on Instagram.

Revealing her daughter is already taller than her, Emma wrote: “My first born is officially taller than me.

“Today she turned 14 and my god, does she make me proud.

“A beautiful soul who is growing into the most incredible young woman. Where the hell has the time gone...”

She ended the post with: “Happy birthday Wizz, we love you to infinity and beyond. Stay true, stay true,” followed by a red heart emoji.

Mum Emma was careful to only show the back of Isabelle’s head as her and Busted star husband Matt Willis never show their children’s faces.

Wearing shorts and a long-sleeved sweatshirt, the teenager appeared to be on holiday in the shot and wore a pair of Mickey Mouse ears.

While Emma also kept it casual in a yellow halter top, shorts and a white linen shirt she wrapped around her waist.

Fans and famous pals were quick to comment underneath with Strictly Come Dancing host Tess Daly and Jamie Oliver’s wife Jools posting red love hearts.

TV chef Juliet Sear, who has appeared on This Morning, wrote: “Happy birthday! I remember making her 3rd birthday cake. It was a Mickey Mouse or Minnie Mouse shape? Have fun!! xxx.”

Bake Off winner Candice Brown said: “Happy birthday Isabelle. You really are a very special young lady.”

Commenting on the fact Isabelle is now towering over her famous mum, one of Emma’s two million followers wrote: “It happens!

“I have a 20 year old and 15 year old and am now the smallest in the house! I am privileged though and count my blessings every day X enjoy every moment with your babies.”

Another fan added: “Aww same – except my 12yr old taller. But I’m sure you’re taller than me. We seem to grow giants these days. I hope u enjoy celebrating.”

As well as Isabelle, Emma and Matt share two other children. Son Ace is 11, while youngest daughter Trixie turned seven in May.

Last month, Emma and Matt were praised for opening up about their struggles as a family over the years.

Matt bravely shared his experience with addiction in BBC documentary Matt Willis: Fighting Addiction, which has since been nominated for a National Television Award.

In the programme the 40-year-old opened up about his past problems and looked for answers as to why he became an addict for both booze and drugs.

Wife Emma also featured in the documentary and revealed how before their wedding day in 2008 she kept a diary of how much Matt had drank or what drugs he had taken that day.

After getting married and becoming a father, Matt was sober for eight years but relapsed on tour with Busted in 2016 and became addicted to cocaine.

He says at his worst he didn’t see his family for four months and was snorting ‘six grams a day’.

Praising Emma for sticking by him despite his issues, Matt said: "I was always surprised [Emma] didn't leave me, she's an unbelievable woman.

"I caused her so much agony, but she saw something in me I didn't see in myself, and I'm forever grateful to her and indebted to her."
