Phillip Schofield shared a photo of his big family on Instagram in celebration of his daughter Ruby's 21st birthday.

The This Morning host proudly shared the snap with his 961 thousand followers, writing: "The whole clan. Happy 21st@rubyschofe," accompanied by a smiling emoji. In the photo, Phillip can be seen grinning from behind the sofa as his daughter sits in front of him with her sister Molly and other family members. 

Fans were quick to wish Phillip's daughter many happy returns, with one writing: "Pics with the whole family are near enough impossible so this is amazing and a great memento of the occasion. Happy birthday to your daughter." Another added: "Many congratulations @schofe you must be the proudest daddy! Such a beautiful family!" Ruby also shared a photo of the family together while they all pulled funny faces, captioning the post: "My bootiful family."

The presenter seems to be taking a break after an incredibly busy 2016, where he was granted a rare interview with Prince Philip himself for the one-off ITV documentary When Phillip Met Prince Philip: 60 Years of The Duke of Edinburgh's Award

Speaking about the experience, Phillip said: "[The Prince] is as sharp as a pin. There was no question, more so than any interview that I've ever done in my life, I was just thinking: one false move, one wrong word and he is going to be on me like a terrier."

He continued: "Yes, there's royal duty, but nevertheless, he's blessed with some extraordinary James Bond-esque type genes. He's sharp as a tack, his memory is fearsome, his humour is razor sharp and he was extraordinary in the amount of time he would spend with people."
