Gemma Atkinson has told Gorka Marquez of her plans for their daughter after he shared a cute video of himself teaching her how to dance. The Hits Radio host had already shared the clips of the Strictly Come Dancing pro showing their little girl, Mia, some steps at their Greater Manchester home.
On Tuesday night (November 22), after Gorka had spent the day with his Strictly partner and Countryfile host Helen Skelton perfecting their Samba as they head into week 10 of the BBC One dance competition, the Spanish dancer had some more teaching to do as the three-year-old seemed keen to pick up some moves from her 'Papa'.
The heart-melted videos, which Gemma posted to her Instagram Story, showed Gorka, 32, showing Mia different moves from the Charleston and Jive. After a brief Charleston practice he asked if she wanted to do the Quickstep before getting onto his knees to show her how to get into frame.
"Today's lesson," a GIF Gemma added onto the clip read before adding music to her next video as Gorka sweetly got his little girl into the right hold for a Quickstep. And Gorka was clearly thrilled with the father and daughter moment as he posted the clips to his own Instagram grid to a cover of You Are My Sunshine.
"Evening dance practice.," Gorka started the caption of his Instagram post. "Mia is getting in the routine of wanting to dance every night when I come home from rehearsals… @glouiseatkinson #tinnydancer." JLS star and former Strictly contestant Aston Merrygold was among the first to comment, simply posting a heart and a crying face emoji.
Fans were also quick to flood the comments section with messages. @kelz_malteaser_83 said: "Aww this needs to be kept for her wedding day and re recorded this is beautiful." @clairesballoonflair wrote: "How cute, just imagine one day how amazing your Father/daughter dance could be at her wedding."
@shaza123 commented: "Ahhh my gosh.! Just exploded my heart.! Nothing like the love of a father and his daughter. Your both such amazing parents ." @hayles.j.87 replied: "I think that’s the cutest thing I’ve ever seen." @madkittyuk posted: "Delightful little girl! Future Strictly Professional!"
@catelonghi typed: "Made me cry happy tears. How beautiful. Teach them whilst they're young. I wish I'd taught my daughter to play the piano but she was so headstrong!" @aimeejmcgrath shared: "This has made me well up! So lovely." @barann.met added: "What a lucky Daddy and Daughter...she is just adorable."
But it was Gemma's comment that got Gorka's followers laughing as the former Emmerdale and Hollyoaks star said: "Wait until I teach her the dutty wine and twerk." The replies to the comment were littered with crying laughing emojis as @vicky_charlton said: "living for this comment."
@south23b commented: "Omg... just spat tea laughing at that... " @yvonne.k_79 wrote: "Can’t beat a Dutty wine." @danipele added: "So good to know both sides."
