Helen Skelton shares rare picture with daughter as she poses in bikini during break from 'raucous' Strictly tour

Strictly Come Dancing’s Helen Skelton posed in a bikini and shared a rare snap with her daughter while on a break from the live tour.

The former Blue Peter presenter took her little girl Elsie, 13 months, swimming and shared a mirror selfie of the pair. The star could be seen wearing a black two-piece while Elsie wore a white swimming costume with a multi-coloured print and smiled for the camera.

The doting mum-of-three captioned the picture: "Little fish," adding a red heart emoji. As well as young Elsie, Helen shares sons Ernie, seven, and Louis, five, with her ex, Richie Myler, with whom she split up last year, just a few months after welcoming their daughter.

Over the weekend she celebrated the first night of the tour in Birmingham with an after party that lasted until 2:30am.

An insider told The Sun: "I can’t believe how raucous it all became. The performance went down incredibly well and so everyone was in high spirits and keen to celebrate their success."

Helen later shared a sweet snap on Instagram with dance partner Kai. The hair could be seen with huge smiles on their faces as they posed on a red carpet. The TV star captioned the post: “Birmingham it’s been a blast so far.. Thank you for getting stuck into it.”
