Ben Shephard often keeps his family life out of the spotlight, but he couldn't but help but be a proud dad when his son, Sam, joined him at the gym.
As you see in the clip below, both Ben and Sam worked hard and the duo could certainly be twins, not only with their grey outfits, but their similar builds and mops of brown hair. Despite showing off Sam's physical prowess in the video, the youngster only appeared right at the very end in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it moment.
In his caption, the father-of-two joked: "Took @samshephardd for his first taste of @foundryfit he smashed it and def kept me honest, even if he wasn't lifting as much as me. Cheers @the_gottfather We loved it!"
Ben's workout certainly looked challenging, as it featured plenty of weights and resistance training. The star was seen lifting dumbbells and performing press-ups on kettlebells.

Sharing a clip from his recovery, Ben said: "It's incredible how these simple moves take so much concentration and trust in the knee being strong enough.

Ben's son Sam turned 18 during the presenter's stint on Good Morning Britain, and addressing the moment on the ITV show, he shared: "It's actually his birthday party tonight as well, oh my goodness me. I dread to think what's going to happen later!"
