Taking to his Instagram page on Wednesday, the TV presenter shared a series of photos - including an image of the gorgeous birthday cake. "Breakfast of champions for this legend," he wrote. "Happy Birthday bubba. X @deekoppangoleary."

The stunning birthday cake Dermot treated his wife Dee

During a recent chat with HELLO!'s Editor in Chief Rosie Nixon, the X Factor host was asked about how he juggles his career with parenting, to which Dermot replied: "I can't remember if I'm honest with you. Being a new dad, you're getting all you can handle. It's full-on."

However, the famous father did admit that he and his wife Dee are good at "tag-teaming". The 47-year-old explained: "Me and Dee are really good at tag-teaming, if one of us needed to go out – pre lockdown – if one of us needed to go out and see friends, we've just sort of slipped into that world."
