Stacey Dooley shares sweet rare snap of newborn daughter as they enjoy break away

Stacey Dooley has shared a selfie of herself cradling her newborn daughter Minnie, with it having been taken whilst they were visiting Kevin Clifton on tour recently.

The presenter, 35, and her partner Kevin, 40 - who were the winners of Strictly Come Dancing in 2018 - announced the birth of their daughter on social media last month.

Stacey has shared updates on Instagram since, including having taken to the platform yesterday to post a photo that she had taken of herself cradling daughter Minnie.

She wrote alongside the selfie: "Too QT to not make the grid". Stacey accompanied the caption with a bow emoji,

Fans took to the comments to react, with some describing the photo as "adorable" and "cute". Others took the opportunity to congratulate Stacey over the recent arrival.

Stacey tagged country hotel chain The Pig Hotel in the post. It's understood that she stayed at one of its hotel whilst visiting partner Kevin, who is on tour at the moment.

The professional dancer is in the cast of Strictly Ballroom. The musical has been directed by Craig Revel Horwood, 58, and Kevin co-stars alongside Maisie Smith, 21.

The show - an adaption of the 1992 film of the same name - played at the Mayflower Theatre in Southampton last week and is now at Royal & Derngate theatre in Northampton.

Stacey wrote about visiting Kevin in posts on her Instagram Story, including sharing a photo from inside the hotel. She praised the business in the accompanying caption.

Alongside a photo of what appeared to be a dining area, the presenter wrote: "Impeccable service." She continued by commenting: "Can't thank the staff enough".

She later shared the selfie of herself and Minnie, which also appeared on her page itself. She wrote alongside it on her Instagram Story: "We came to stay w/ Daddy".

Stacey and Kevin announced the birth of their daughter last month. Kevin expressed pride over his partner in his post, and the couple both shared their love for each other.

She later gushed over Kevin in a post for Valentine's Day earlier this month, describing him and Minnie as the "loves of [her] life". She added: "I dunno what I did to get so lucky."

Stacey further commented in that post: "To the best dad and man in the world ….. happy vally's darlin. Ps….. you're on nights when u get home from tour."
