Louise and Jamie Redknapp celebrate lookalike son's milestone night before university

Louise Redknapp has shared a super sweet snap snap of her son Charley before he heads off to uni.

The mum-of-two's eldest son, 17, has just graduated from Epsom college as he prepares to further his education - reportedly in America.

Posing proudly with his arm around the singer, 47, the teen looked very dapper in a black tux with red bow tie.

Meanwhile, ex-Eternal singer Louise stunned sporting a high-necked floral frock with her hair in a pony tail.

Captioning the pic, she gushed: "So proud of my boy and best friend @charley_redknapp. School leavers dinner tonight, next stop uni."

Fans loved the sweet post, with many commenting on the singer's relationship with her son.

One said: "Awwww, such a handsome man. You must be so proud."

While another posted: "I know how proud you are of Charley. You speak so lovingly about him. Cheers to you both."

Louise shares her two sons Charley and Beau, 13, with ex-husband Jamie Redknapp.

The former footballer also expressed his pride at his son's accomplishment sharing a pic of the pair enjoying a drink.

Captioning the snap, Jamie said: "Epsom college leavers ball. Wow! You guys were on fire tonight. I'm so proud of you and the man you're turning into @charley_redknapp. Next stop [American flag and football emojis]."

He then teased: "We might have to work on your bow tie game. Have a word."

Jamie and ex-wife Louise were together for 19 years before the Strictly star called it quits in 2017.

Fans were heartbroken by the news after the couple seemed rock solid for so long.

The sports pundit has now moved on with Swedish model Frieda Andersson, who he married last year shortly before she gave birth to the couple's first child, Raphael.

Louise, meanwhile, keeps her love life under wraps, but did admit that Charley and Beau are encouraging her to date again.

Speaking to Fabulous, she said: "‘They always say “When are you going to [date]?’ she explained in a new interview. ‘All my boys care about is me being happy – whatever that is.'"

She also admitted she was worried about Charley leaving home, saying: "It's really on my mind. I know I mustn't stand in his way and I've got to encourage him all the way.

"I said 'Can you just go to New York? It doesn't take long to get there!' But knowing him it will be the furthest away place."
