Strictly Come Dancing presenter Tess Daly, 51, has given fans a rare insight into her family life in lockdown with husband Vernon Kay, 48, and their two children, Phoebe, 15, and Amber, 10. The star revealed she has been busy “planning” today ahead of her youngest daughter’s 11th birthday this weekend.
Tess shared a sun-soaked snap from her garden in an animal print adorned ensemble, as she informed her 510,000 Instagram followers that she and her family are set to celebrate their “third family birthday in lockdown”.
The television personality was pictured smiling sweetly for the camera in a leopard print swimsuit and a tiger-striped kaftan to cover her arms.
She accessorised her summery look with a pair of oversized sunglasses and a gold necklace.
Tess captioned her candid post: “HEATWAVE. Hope you’re enjoying this beautiful weather?

“I’ve grabbed a few minutes outdoors; soaking up the sun (SPF 50) and planning our Amber’s 11th birthday tomorrow.”
The Strictly favourite went on to detail her “plans so far” for the occasion, which included creating an array of delicious homemade treats.
She continued: “Plans so far: make-your-own-pizzas & build your own ice cream sundaes for lunch and I finally managed to track down some Self Raising flour (feels like a win!) so will be making old school fairy and butterfly cakes like my mum always used to make me on childhood birthdays…
“It’s the little things you remember right? This will be our third family birthday in lockdown #staycationing #atleasttheressunshine.”
Tess previously informed fans she has been making a “conscious effort” to stay positive and “boost her wellbeing” during the COVID-19 outbreak.
The BBC star spoke about her “experimental” new project, which she has been focusing on since the beginning of lockdown, earlier this month.
Tess posted a picture of herself alongside her new vegetable patch, telling fans she was “chuffed to bits” with the results.
In the snap, the Strictly star posed next to her home-grown strawberries and raspberries in casual clothing.
