Tess Daley posed for a photo with her look-a-like daughter Phoebe as she gave an insight into her family’s Christmas on Monday.
The Strictly Come Dancing presenter, 55, and her eldest daughter, 20, smiled for a mirror selfie while her husband Vernon Kay, 50, took to the stage for his panto stint.
In the snap, Tess wore a halter neck top adorned with shiny gold sequins, which she paired with black trousers and hoop earrings.
Meanwhile, Phoebe put on a stunning display in a black ballgown with a crossover design and cut out detailing.
Another photo showed Vernon in his role as Aladdin at Wycombe’s Swan Theatre, while a third included Tess’ Christmas dinner.
‘That’s a wrap on party season for another year,’ she captioned to Instagram update.

Phoebe has frequently been spotted at glamorous events with her famous parents in recent months as she makes a name for herself in the industry.
She looked the spitting image of her famous mother as she appeared alongside her father in an EE Christmas commercial in December.
In the fun ad the Radio 2 DJ, 50, was put in charge of holiday preparations but was forced to enlist to tiny pet pooch Mickey to find the Christmas decorations.
And Phoebe also mucked in when when her hapless father seemingly forgot to order a turkey for the festivities.
Since turning 18, Phoebe has started creeping into the public eye, making her red carpet debut alongside her father at the John Wick Chapter 4 premiere last March.
While TV presenter Vernon was on hand to support his daughter, he previously revealed that he and Tess insist his children don’t live off their fame and must form ‘their own careers.’
It’s an important factor for the celebrity duo, who both fell into fame after being scouted as models and then turning to television.
Speaking to MailOnline in 2022, Vernon said he and his wife believe it’s important for their offspring ‘to find themselves’ and not be given their ‘life on a plate’, crediting the pair’s Northern backgrounds for shaping their parenting beliefs.

Vernon said: ‘We let them be independent when it comes to them and their futures because it’s important that you allow them to find themselves, which is character building and personality development.
Tess is of the same thinking as her husband, telling MailOnline in 2021 how she kept her children ‘grounded’ against the trappings of fame and raises them with ‘morals, respect and a work ethic.’
The Strictly host revealed that Phoebe didn’t realise her mum worked on TV until she was seven years old as she and Vernon worked to keep their family shielded from the limelight.
‘She had no idea until she saw me once and said “there’s my mum!” She just thought I went to work on a Saturday because to them it is work,’ she explained.
