Emma Willis shares rare snap of all three of her kids being entertained by dad Matt

Emma Willis shared rare insight into her husband Matt's close bond with their three children.

The TV presenter, 45, leads a relatively private life, but she took to her Instagram over the weekend to share snaps of Isabelle, 11, Ace, nine, and Trixie, five, being entertained by their father on his birthday.

"Gift giving..." she wrote alongside an image of a confused Matt unwrapping a present from his kids on Saturday morning.

The trio looked eager as they patiently awaited their father's reaction.

Later that day, the couple celebrated the musician's special day with a Grease themed bash at a drive-in cinema.

They were joined by celebrity pals Tom and Giovanna Fletcher, who slipped into fancy dress to watch the classic movie.

Earlier last week, they Willis family also went all out for Trixie's birthday.

Emma married the Busted bassist in 2008.

The happy couple have been together for 15 years, although before they started seeing each other Matt, 38, admitted he got shouted at by his at the time girlfriend for flirting with Emma.

Speaking to I'm A Celeb 2015 winner Vicky Pattison on her podcast, Matt said: "I was on Saturday Night Takeaway with Ant and Dec and Blue were on the same night.

"Emma was at home. She had split up with her boyfriend. Suddenly Simon from Blue hands me a phone and it's [mutual friend] Tim Kash and he says, 'Emma is really trying to get hold of you – do you mind if I give her your number?'

"And I was like, 'Yes, here's my number, tell her to call me'."

That night he got a text from the woman who would become the mother of his children, but in efforts to not come on too strong he waited two and a half days to respond.

But once he did, it was smooth sailing for the pair, marrying three years later.

Emma and Matt Willis have recently signed up and done training with St John Ambulance in support of the coronavirus vaccination programme
