Gemma Atkinson has asked her fans 'anyone else' after sharing a message exchange between her and her mum. The Hits Radio host, who is currently pregnant with her second child, wanted to know if her followers also still asked their parents the more mundane life questions despite being older with a family of their own.
Taking to her Instagram Story, Gemma shared a screengrab of the WhatsApp conversation she had been having with her mum, Sandra, and we're pretty sure many people will have been having the same at some point or another. The 38-year-old was seen asking: "My stew will be ok tomorrow won't it to take to work? Its been in the fridge since last night."
Sandra then replied: "Yeah course it will be fine or 2/3 days." Gemma then explained to her mum that she was going out for tea meaning she wouldn't get to use it all up and didn't want it to go to waste which is perfectly reasonable.

"Anyone else in their 30s but still has to ask stuff like this??" the former Hollyoaks and Emmerdale star wrote alongside the post with a face plant emoji and crying laughing emoji. She then added: "I never trust myself unless mum has ok'd it!"
It came before Gemma's latest Instagram post was flooded with praise. She shared how while on a recent holiday with her fiance Gorka Marquez and their daughter Mia, the trio headed on a boat trip to see whales and dolphins at sea. Sharing a video of the moment they caught a glimpse, the former soap star said: "Still on a high that we got to experience this. Pilot whales & dolphins in the ocean. Swimming freely.
"At one point there was a group of small fins all together with a larger one a few feet back. The guide told us it was “kindergarten time” and that the adult stays back and allows each adolescent to take turns leading the pod. It teaches them how to lead & navigate and survive one day with their own family. Beyond intelligent and so sweet."
She then added referring to three-year-old Mia's comments heard in the background of the video: "I also love Mia grassing on papa for standing up as I’d told her that whole morning under no circumstances is she allowed to stand up on the boat without me or Gorka holding her hand."
And fans were quick to share their joy at seeing the post. @emmabridgewater78 said: "Perfect! So lovely you got to see them in the only place they should be seen... Not in a rancid tiny tank. Love this post." @lorny04 wrote: "Well done for posting about them freely too! They deserve it. To be free."
@judithann.maxwell commented: "So perfect and so different than the ‘old’ way of seeing them confined in a tank that’s to small…." @paula_pops91 added: "Absolutely magical. What an amazing memory for little Mia seeing them living freely
Others, however, were distracted by Mia's comments to her 'Papa'. @iamstaceyleigh83 said: "This is so amazing. I’d love to do this. I also love how Mia always grasses up her Papa makes me laugh everytime." @mazbuchanan laughed: "That’s hilarious! Go Mia." Alongside a string of crying laughing emojis, @lozp1114 posted: "'Papa was standing up'. Absolutely love her she’s great."
