“I am not okay,” said actress Gemma yesterday, as she posted the most adorable photo of her little girl on her Instagram. Clearly in her feels, she followed the statement up with a crying emoji.

Big school next week!

The picture showed little Mia smiling in a handmade cardboard graduation cap at her pre-school.

Pro dancer Gorka also shared the picture to his Instagram story with the explanatory caption: “Her last day…” and a red love heart.

It seems only yesterday Gemma and Gorka, who met on Strictly, were giving birth to their first child and already she has finished pre-school!

Earlier in the day, Gemma gushed over the emotional moment as she shared a throwback photo from two years ago: “Just dropped Mia off for her last day at pre school. This picture was her first day back in Nov 2020. Big school next week! New adventures await.”

Best of luck for big school, Mia!
