Gemma Atkinson found herself laughing over a brilliant photo she had taken of her daughter while celebrating her birthday over the weekend. Mia, who the Hits Radio host shares with fiancé Gorka Marquez, turned three on Monday (July 4).
But her doting parents hosted a garden party for the toddler on Sunday afternoon (July 3) at their Greater Manchester home. Both Gemma, 37, and Strictly Come Dancing star Gorka, 31, shared a bunch of snaps from the sunny get-together on their Instagram accounts.
It showed the loved-up couple, who got engaged on Valentine's Day last year, hanging around their stunning pad with their friends who also appeared to enjoy an inflatable rainbow sprinkler. There was also an adorable image of Mia, dressed for her party in a purple dress, riding on a toy bike.
She was also presented with a beautiful dripped cake, posing with her parents alongside a sign which was adorned with pink balloons and emblazoned with a big number three. "Mia’s party!" Gemma wrote alongside her series of images. "Thankyou SO much to all of you who came to celebrate with us! Loads missing off here but you know who you are…
"For all her wonderful cards & gifts, thank you! You all made her day so special! And for all the well wishes on here as well, thanks so much. I can’t believe Mia is 3! From the way she entered the world to now be where she’s at makes me so Grateful every single day. My little warrior princess from her first breath. I couldn’t be prouder."
Gorka also shared: "Thank you so much to everyone who came celebrate with us our girl special day! And those who couldn’t make it we missed you! Mia absolutely loved it and this morning she wanted another party." He then laughed: "But I think some of the adults end up having more fun than the kids in the rainbow sprinkler."
But Gemma couldn't help but share another moment she captured on her daughter's special day. Taking to her Instagram Story, the former Hollyoaks and Emmerdale actress shared a snap of Mia sat on the wall in the garden, with a sandwich in one hand and using a fork to dip into a tray of goodies on the other.
Placed next to her, however, was a can of beer belonging to one of the adult partygoers. But it tickled Gemma who wrote alongside the photo: "Tell me your Northern..." alongside a string of crying laughing emojis.
Fans have previously been distracted by the youngster's accent. It appears she has taken off her Bury-born mum despite her 'Papa' being Spanish and teaching her the language. Back in March, Gemma shared a sweet video of daughter Mia to mark International Women's Day.
But fans were also distracted by Mia's developing accent. @haribel_73 said: "Oh you can definitely hear that manc accent." @6623carob commented: "Love her northern accent." @rache_mossy shared: "Oh my gosh, her wonderful little accent. Its is a joy to see snippets of her growing up, and just you in mini form. The cutest."
