Whilst the youngster’s identity was largely hidden, Minnie, who came into the world back in January this year, sported bright red locks just like her famous mum, Stacey.

Doting dad Kevin was quick to highlight their uncanny resemblance in his caption, writing: "'Is @sjdooley a natural ginger?'" followed by a laughing face emoji and an orange love heart.

The professional dancer's friends and followers flooded the comments section with heartfelt messages in awe of Minnie's grown-up appearance and flaming tresses.
