"You're her twin," one wrote, while another commented: "You look exactly like your mum and Lola and Joaquin look exactly like you."

Others thought Kelly's teenage daughter Lola was the spitting image of her grandmother. "Lola looks like your beautiful mum," one observed, while another noted: "Oh my gosh, there's a striking resemblance to your Lola! Gorgeous! Happy birthday to your mom."
