In images shared to the social media platform, Helen, 40, is pictured beaming from ear to ear alongside her adorable brood. She appeared in high spirits as she perched on a hay bale with little Elsie sat on her lap.

She was also joined by her two boys Ernie, eight, and Louis, six, who appeared to relish their autumnal family adventure complete with a trio of giant pumpkins and an impressive-looking scarecrow.

The TV star got stuck in with nature

For the special occasion, Helen looked her usual stylish self in a pair of skinny jeans, a warm jacket, a chic beige scarf and a sporty baseball cap. She elevated her outfit with a pair of fabulous lace-up khaki outdoor boots and some chunky silver hoop earrings. Perfection!

Looking every inch her mother’s mini-me, little Elsie looked adorable in a lilac top, a fluffy beanie and a candyfloss pink fluffy gilet. Helen's two boys, meanwhile, appeared as bashful as ever in shorts and cosy jackets.

"Swipe for reassurance," Helen quipped in her caption. She continued: "PS where did the turnips go? #pumpkin #autumn #halfterm #weekends #freshair."

Helen's blissful family photos come after she stepped down from her BBC Radio 5 job in order to spend more time with her little ones.

Announcing her departure from the show, Helen told her co-host Lloyd Griffith: "I am not all right about it but, you know, needs must. The juggle is real. There is an eight-year-old with a sideline who needs me. I've loved every minute of the past year... Thank you to all the team and thank you to all of you. It’s hard to know what to say without getting emotional."
