Helen Skelton's son had his own mini cheerleader in the form of his younger sister Elsie as he attended a football match this week.

Watching on from the sidelines, the two-year-old excitedly peered through the railings, jumping up and down and shouting at the pitch.

"Show me a prouder sister," Helen captioned the clip. Keeping it casual, Elsie wore pink leggings, trainers and a cosy jumper and showed off her resemblance to her famous mother with her hairstyle.

Shoulder-length blonde curls had been left loose around her shoulders while the front section had been fastened away from her eyes. The ashy colour and delicate ringlets are reminiscent of Helen's trademark hairstyle, which she had sported earlier in the week alongside a Fair Isle red jumper, a sequin skirt and a matching cherry coat for an appearance on Morning Live alongside Gethin Jones.
