Fearne, 36, told fans: “Dad popped in to say hi at Wembley Arena as he works down the way. Bring your dad to work day!”

Followers loved the rare glimpse at Fearne’s old man and flooded her Instagram accounts with comments on just how much she looks like her father.

One fan told her: “Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree… handsome daddy !”

Another fan remarked: “Gosh the absolute image of him.”

A third said: “You look like your dad, lovely picture of you both!”

And a fourth added: “You’re so much like your dad, so cute!”

Other comments included “twinning”, “actual peas in a pod” and “you’re the double of your dad!”

If there were any celebs hanging around backstage at Wembley for the Children In Need filming, Mick probably wasn’t too fussed.

Fearne once revealed neither Mick nor her mum Linda were remotely star-struck when she introduced them to husband Jesse Wood’s dad Ronnie aka the Rolling Stone.

“I’m sure when they first met Jesse’s dad, it was quite bizarre, but then they’re used to being around certain circles because of my job and they’re not bothered about the whole industry,” she told Express.

“My mum would never ring me and go, ‘Ooh, how was it interviewing Coldplay?’ She’s more likely to say, ‘What shoes did you buy in the end?’

“They’re not bothered by the fame game. That’s normal now. That’s our crazy mishmash of a family.”

Jesse is also dad to kids Lola and Arthur from his previous marriage.
