Out of all his kids, Tilly may be the one who follows in her famous father's footsteps thanks to her Big Chef, Little Chef series on This Morning back in 2018. During a chat with HELLO!, Tilly previously revealed she wouldn’t rule out working with her dad again in the future.

"I love working with my dad, we have so much fun although sometimes he gets bossy and annoying!" she shared.
