Jools Oliver faced an emotional week as she bid farewell to her eldest daughter Poppy and her boyfriend Ben as they began an adventure around the world.
The couple, who recently graduated from Leeds University, were dropped off by their respective families at the airport before they made their way to their first destination – Bali.

She continued: "Make the most of every single minute and have the adventure of a lifetime. It goes without saying that each and every one of us are going to miss you so deeply. I have lost my little school run/coffee mates now you and Dase have both almost flown the nest."

Jools chose to share a sweet photo of herself hugging her daughter Poppy tightly outside of their family home. Whilst the mother-of-five still seemed to be in her pyjamas, Poppy was ready for her adventure, carrying a big backpack on her shoulders, no doubt filled with all the necessary items to make her trip around the world a success.

Later on her Stories, Jamie Oliver's wife shared two photos showing Poppy and Ben at the airport walking towards the security area.
"Hurry home," she simply wrote alongside the first photo.

The family recently marked a major milestone, celebrating the first boy in the family becoming a teenager.

“Our journeys home from the endless rugby and cricket matches are my very favourite times, so much laughter and chat plus the occasional begging to go to a McDonald’s. We cannot wait to celebrate with you later have a wonderful day little dude.”
