Gemma Atkinson's daughter 'gutted' to miss dad Gorka on Strictly tour after being stricken with chickenpox

Gemma Atkinson has told how her adorable daughter Mia missed seeing her dad Gorka Marquez dance in the Strictly Professionals tour last week after being stricken with chickenpox. The doting mia posted super-cute video of two-year-old Mia browsing through a programme brought home for her by Gorka after she couldn't make it.

Hits Radio presenter Gemma, 37, says Mia was 'gutted' not to be able to see her dad perform with his fellow Strictly Come Dancing professionals at at The Lowry in Salford. "She missed the show with her chickenpox so papa got her a programme," said the former Hollyoaks and Emmerdale actress on her Instagram Stories.

And she explained in another caption: "Program was the next best thing we could do bless her. She was gutted she couldn't watch papa dance."
