The presenter gets high praise from his followers

By the looks of his posts on Instagram, the budding artist paints at his home in Brecon Beacon where he lives with his wife, Sue, and their daughter Indigo. The Garden Rescue star occasionally shows off pictures of his gorgeous family, too, including this sweet snap of him with his daughter.

In the image, posted in April 2020, the father-of-one can be seen lying down on the sofa as his baby daughter sits on top of him. The Garden Rescue star captioned the picture: "Saturday morning Indigo."

Meanwhile, Harry and his brother are set to be leaving Garden Rescue once series six comes to an end. The BBC confirmed that the pair and Arit Anderson would not be returning for series seven in 2022, but three new presenters would be appearing instead. 

A statement released in May said: A statement read: "Arit Anderson and the Rich brothers have decided to leave the programme after this year, however, they will continue to feature in the latest series starting this month."

Lee Burkhill, Flo Headlam and Chris Hull are set to join Charlie for series seven onwards. Alex McLead, Commissioning Editor for BBC Daytime, said: "I am so excited to welcome Lee, Chris and Flo to our Garden Rescue family and I can’t wait for viewers to enjoy their fantastic garden designs.
