The Welsh star, who confirmed last month she is expecting her third child with her husband Charlie Thomson, shared a heartwarming post of her parents reunited with her sons, Teddy and Kit.

In the photo, the star's parents could be seen holding hands with Teddy, whilst Kit scooted ahead.

"I didn't think that Teddy would ever let their hands go," she wrote. "A very lovely day and for the first time in ages it felt that things were really getting back to some sort of normality."

It was the perfect weather for an outdoor family reunion

The 41-year-old made the most of the glorious weekend weather, enjoying a family stroll in the park to mark the sweet occasion.

Friends of the presenter rushed to the comments to share their thoughts on the joyful post, including This Morning's Ruth Langsford who said: "A beautiful sight", whilst co-host Ronan Keating commented: "Ahhhhh so lovely".

The Welsh star was visibly nervous as she told co-host Ronan Keating about her surprise pregnancy last month, saying: "I feel really nervous all of a sudden... it just seems like a good time to share some news with everybody - and the crew in the studio for the first time!

"Lockdown has been anything but predictable, and we've had some really unexpected news. Baby number three is on the way!"
