Stacey Dooley delighted audiences across the country with her In Conversation With… tour which wrapped up last month - but it seems the documentary star is set to hit the stage again.

On Sunday, the former Strictly Come Dancing champion shared a candid photo of her and her daughter Minnie in what appeared to be a backstage dressing room. "Groupies" the radiant new mother captioned her Instagram Story, which showed her cradling her six-month-old whom she shares with partner Kevin Clifton.

Baby Minnie twinned with her mum as the mummy-daughter duo rocked white T-shirts, with Stacey amping up the glamour in pink silk balloon tracksuit pants, retro trainers and a white cap. 

The BBC star later shared a hilarious clip of her jumping up and down in a bid to entertain her mini-me. Take a look at her playful mum antics in the clip below...

 "Me trying to keep my 6-month-old entertained," Stacey penned over her post.

It's not yet clear why the fiery-haired broadcast journalist was "backstage" with her daughter, but Stacey's videos come shortly after the star announced the return of her hugely-popular Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over USA docuseries.

The first season saw the British filmmaker head to the States to spend a week with families who live unconventional lives. In series one, Stacey met some parents who have a nine-year-old daughter who uploads gun content on YouTube, before meeting a couple with a 37-year age gap.

The return of the second series promises more of the same and will explore deeper into the different attitudes surrounding relationships, parenting, and money - and fans couldn't contain their excitement for the news.
