Boris Johnson and wife Carrie are enjoying some family time in their Oxfordshire home, and Carrie captured a magical moment between the former PM and his son Wilf, four.

The 60-year-old was pictured with his boy as the pair reclined on the sofa as Boris read him a Christmas book. The former politician, dressed in a blue shirt and jeans, stretched his legs out onto the family's ottoman. Meanwhile, Wilf was ready for bed in his pyjamas — which featured cars.

Carrie was perfectly attired for the cold November evenings — the political consultant wore a pair of slippers and had thrown a blanket over herself.

The family's living room looked resplendent with floral wallpaper and a pristine lamp, that appeared to carry the insignia of the House of Commons.

A tray had been left out on the ottoman, which featured bowls of crisps and peanuts, and a touch of Christmas could be seen in the décor, with a tub that carried a festive penguin seen on the edge of the seat.

Carrie has previously given glimses into her gorgeous living room which features a salmon and white striped sofa, blue and white armchair and Aztec-print chairs.

Although it didn't appear in Carrie's latest post, the room also features a large portrait of the politician. The painting showed Boris and two of his children — likely his eldest two with Carrie — with shocks of blonde hair and wide grins on their faces.

The former Prime Minister and his wife live in a Grade II-listed country house steeped in history. Thought to date back to 1605, Brightwell Manor in Brightwell-cum-Sotwell features nine bedrooms and its own moat which surrounds the house on three sides.

Carrie regularly posts photos of her family and last month, the mother-of-three shared several sweet memories from a family holiday to Morocco.

Romy's adventures with her older brother continued, with the duo later snapped in a toy vintage car, with the young girl leaning her arm on the car's rear.
