TESS Daly has posed beside her stunning daughter Phoebe, 21, in the Strictly studio and paid a sweet tribute after the Halloween special.
Tess and Claudia Winkleman recently announced they had quit the show with a joint clip on Instagram.
Taking to Instagram, Tess shared a gorgeous snap with her daughter, who she shares with TV and Radio presenter Vernon Kay, 51.
The Strictly host revealed Phoebe, who looks so much like her mum, had been coming to the studio for her entire life.
In the photo, Tess was still wearing her black velvet ruched mini-dress that she’d worn for Strictly’s Halloween week reports the Mail.
While Phoebe looked beautiful in a sequinned burgundy dress adorned with spaghetti straps.
Tess wrote: “Such a treat having you at the show last night @phoebeekay can’t believe you’ve been coming for 21 years; your entire life.
Phoebe is a film production student who splits her time between London and Dubai.
Earlier this month, Phoebe stunned as she celebrated her 21st birthday, posing with her parents in a glam silver dress.
Radio 2 host Vernon, took to Instagram to share a series of snaps of Phoebe as she hit the milestone.
The proud dad wrote alongside his upload: “HAPPYBIRTHDAY @phoebeekay 21Today!! The celebrations are gonna be epic!! You’re the best any parent could ask for.”
Tess and Vernon, who have been married for 22 years, are also parents to 16-year-old daughter Amber.
Amber hit her own big milestone in May, with Tess sharing a sweet tribute to her youngest on social media at the time.
She wrote: “Cannot believe our baby girl turns 16 today! HAPPY BIRTHDAY AMBER.”
It comes after The Sun revealed the real reason behind Tess and Claudia’s shock departure from the BBC show.
BBC bosses have been blindsided by their departure, with only a small number of people in the TV industry made aware of their intentions.
It’s understood they secretly filmed the exit video weeks ago — and released it mid-series so as not to overshadow the eventual winner.
Their last show will be on Christmas Day.
A source said: “Claudia and Tess have known they were leaving Strictly since last year. They felt like it was their time to go.
“They discussed this privately and agreed they would walk away together, but kept it firmly under wraps.”
Their exit comes after the BBC show was hit by a string of recent scandals involving its professional dancers and behind-the-scenes conduct.
Plummeting viewing figures and “underwhelming” line-ups even prompted betting giants to offer odds earlier this year on this being the show’s final outing.
The two made history as primetime television’s first female presenting duo when they paired up to co-host the show in 2014.
Both had been part of Strictly since 2004, Tess hosting the main show with Bruce Forsyth and Claudia on spin-off It Takes Two.
