The Repair Shop star Steve Fletcher is a doting dad to five children and sometimes shares glimpses of his family life on social media.
Earlier this month, the horologist was a proud dad to his daughter, whose name is unknown, as she graduated with a degree in Primary Teacher Education from Oxford Brookes University. Congratulations!
Taking to Instagram, the TV star posted a photo from graduation day, showing Steve with his arm around his daughter, who was donning a traditional cap and gown.
Expressing his pride in the caption, Steve penned: "A very proud day for our family yesterday!
"Wonderful to watch my daughter graduate from @oxfordbrookes with a BA(Hons) in Primary Teacher Education."

Fred even made an appearance on The Repair Shop last year and assisted his dad in repairing the largest timepiece ever attempted on the programme. Watch a clip from the episode below.
Meanwhile, Amelia, Steve's eldest daughter, works as his manager.
Spending quality time with his loved ones is clearly important to Steve, who in 2020, shared two sweet snaps from family holidays to Cornwall. "We all lead such busy lives, but we try to get away to Cornwall together every year (these photos were taken a few years apart)," he penned in the caption.

Steve likes to keep his romantic life out of the spotlight, so little is known about his partner. However, we do know that she had a hand in launching the clock expert's television career.

He continued: "Not trusting anything that is on the internet, I nearly deleted it and would have done if my partner, Mel, hadn't stopped me saying that it all looks ok. I responded and a few moments later had a phone call from [producer] Shane who told me about the show and I agreed to appear on it."
