Doting on Daisy
Back in August 2022, Monty melted hearts with a precious snapshot of himself cuddling his baby granddaughter Daisy. The tiny tot looked so sweet wearing a white broderie dress and a vintage style wide-brimmed hat emblazoned with a pastel ditsy print.
Looking every inch the doting grandfather, Monty could be seen wrapping his arms around the youngster with a broad grin etched across his face. He captioned his post: "Grandfather and granddaughter- Daisy in a hat".
Dotty for Daisy
Following Daisy's arrival, Monty enjoyed a tender bonding moment with his tiny granddaughter.
In the snapshot, the doting grandfather could be seen cradling the newborn who looked so sweet wearing a white babygrow, blush pink tights and a colourful sun hat speckled with neon flowers. In his caption, he wrote: "Daisy sleeping in my arms."
Monty's little helper
Monty's grandson George looked every inch his grandfather's mini-me as he posed for a sweet photograph in what appeared to be Monty's sprawling garden at Longmeadow.
Whilst Monty's royal-worthy outdoor space boasts different areas such as 'The Cottage Garden', 'The Jewel Garden' and 'The Vegetable Garden', little George was snapped riding a plane-shaped tricycle down a cobbled path lined with trees. "George came to help in the garden today," Monty noted in the caption.
Monty's mini-me
George got stuck in with nature once again during a sweet bonding moment with Monty.
The youngster was photographed clutching a mini yellow digger whilst sitting atop a wooden worktop scattered with plant pots and white plant labels.
For the gardening session, curly-haired George rocked a pair of sky blue wellies, jeans and a navy polo top.
Digger delight
In another heartwarming moment, Monty appeared to dote on little George as got to grips with a mini green spade.
Heaping praise on his loved one, the TV gardener wrote in his caption: "Expert help in the garden today."
A quacking time
The duo bonded over a cluster of chickens in a particularly precious moment. In the image, George could be seen clinging onto a mesh fence, gazing intently at the fluffy chickens.
In his caption, Monty joked: "George admiring the 'quacks'. We can tighten up on species detail in due course…"
Bonding with grandpa
Aside from helping out in the garden, little George appears to be captivated by his grandfather's gorgeous kitchen.
During a family visit, the tiny tot was photographed standing in a ceramic sink as he got to grips with the washing up. "George came to visit today," Monty noted in his caption. "Put him to work doing the washing up…"
Baby joy
Monty has been doting on his grandson George ever since he came into the world.
Following his arrival, the author and broadcaster shared a heartening image of a bewildered baby George resting in a BabyBjorn bouncer. "If you are not quite certain what's going on, give your ear a tug. It always helps," Monty quipped in his caption.
