Strictly Come Dancing host Tess Daly has marked the 18th birthday of her eldest daughter Phoebe by posting a rare batch of photos of the teenager on social media.
The 53-year old, who shares two children with husband and fellow presenter Vernon Kay, took to her Instagram account to share four loving snaps with her 806,000 followers.
The first image was a recent shot of Phoebe holding the family's puppy, whilst another showed her enjoying a holiday in a red dress.
Two throwback snaps, meanwhile, showed Tess cradling a new-born Phoebe with proud dad Vernon looking on, with another taken several years later was of the trio looking dressed up.
Tess captioned the photos: "Where did the time go? Our little Phoebe is 18 today! Wishing you the happiest birthday!
"We are so proud of you and can’t wait to celebrate this milestone with you. Love you to the moon & back."
Fans and celebrities alike were quick to wish Phoebe well on her big day, with Tess' co-host Claudia Winkleman writing: "Happy happy happy birthday Phoebe."
Actress Tillie Amartey commented: "Happy 18th birthday to the most gorgeous inside and out girl miss ya xxx."
One fan added: "Oh wow happiest of birthdays Phoebe have a wonderful day lots of love xx."
Whilst another said: "My goodness the expression ‘two peas in a pod’ comes to mind! Happy Birthday."
TV personalities Gabby Logan, Kate Thornton and Stacey Dooley, meanwhile, were also on hand to wish Phoebe many happy returns.

Strictly fans were left giggling on Saturday evening, meanwhile as Tess appeared to snub judge Craig Revel Horwood partway through the show.
The moment came after Fleur East took to the BBC ballroom dance floor to perform the Viennese Waltz with her professional partner Vito Coppola, receiving an ultimate score of 28.
As the proceedings turned to the judging panel for their verdict on the routine, Tess awkwardly snubbed Craig and failed to come to him for his comments.
She said to Fleur: "All very constructive advice from the judges." She then interrupted herself and said: "Oh, Craig, excuse me, my darling. How could I ever forget you?"
