Kevin Clifton shared a picture of his and Stacey Dooley’s baby daughter Minnie as he paid tribute to his other half on her 36th birthday.

The 40-year-old professional dancer - who first met documentary maker Dooley when they were paired together on Strictly Come Dancing back in 2018, which they went on to win - uploaded a sweet shot of Dooley cradling their little girl, whose arrival they announced last month.

In the shot, Dooley can be seen sporting a casual outfit with a caramel-coloured hoodie, mom jeans and trainers, with her auburn hair pinned back.

For her part, Minnie is wearing cream-coloured top and bottoms with her booties seeming to colour co-ordinate with her famous mum’s orange cross body bag.

Her face isn’t visible, with Dooley holding her in the opposite direction of the camera.

“Happy Birthday my girl @sjdooley. The most wonderful and beautiful girl in the world,” he gushed in the caption.

He added: “Enjoy today, you deserve everything. Love u so much. Kev and Minnie.”
