Steph McGovern is a proud mum to her young daughter and makes sure to keep her out of the spotlight, sharing very rare photos - with her face always obscured - or providing snippets of information into her life.

During the week, the star took to Instagram to show off an impressive look that she wore on Packed Lunch that was covered with multicoloured cassette tapes. Alongside the eye-catching top she wore a pair of skintight black jeans and matching boots. She combined her dazzling pair of earrings and bracelet with a bright face of makeup and styled her blonde locks in her signature way.

Steph was quick to rave about her outfit, before confessing that it slightly showed her age as the presenter's daughter, three, questioned what was featured on the shirt.

"80s reject over here," she joked. "Love this cassette jacket that @tesswrightstylist found for me on @etsy - they're not doing them anymore. My little girl asked me what was on my jacket and I said 'they're called cassettes and they're what we used to listen to music on in the olden days'." She finished the post by crediting her hair and makeup artist.

Sharing their thoughts on the outfit, one fan wrote: "I love all your outfits you wear on Packed Lunch always look very stylish and love the show been watching since day 1," while a second added: "The best jacket, need one now with floppy discs or VHS tapes!"

A third posted: "Loved your hair today. You look ACE Steph as always," while a fourth shared: "The 80s were the best!" while a fifth lamented how the jacket was no longer available. "Darn it, I spent ages Googling your jacket too!" they commented.

Steph dotes on her young girl and over the weekend, she sweetly revealed that the family had headed out to a huge activity centre decked out with a brightly coloured obstacle course. In a second photo, Steph posed for a sweet selfie, alongside which she penned: "My little one loves it here."

She further surprised fans with a relatable follow-up selfie. In the hilarious snapshot, Steph was pictured eating a sausage sandwich whilst relaxing at the play centre's restaurant. "And so do I…" she quipped in her caption. "The sausage sandwiches are lush!"
