Gemma Atkinson took to Instagram to share an early special birthday message for her partner, Gorka Marquez yesterday (3 September).

Alongside her adorable tribute, the mum-of-two also shared a couple of family photos with their children, four-year-old Mia and six-week-old Thiago to mark the occasion.

As well as family snaps, Gemma revealed Gorka's wonderful birthday surprise. This included a drip cake, a homemade birthday card and a gift wrapped in pink unicorn paper.

The Strictly Come Dancing star admitted that although Gorka's birthday is actually on 4 September, she wanted to celebrate early since he'd be back in rehearsals, ahead of Strictly's much-anticipated return this autumn.

Gemma also revealed, "It’s funny the only Birthday of yours we’ve actually spent together was 2017 when we were both rehearsing 😂"

To caption the cute photos, Gemma penned: "It isn’t until tomorrow, but you’ll be back in rehearsals so we celebrated early! Happy (almost) Birthday @gorka_marquez It’s funny the only Birthday of yours we’ve actually spent together was 2017 when we were both rehearsing 😂

"We love you so much and are so proud of you! Keep being, young, foolish and happy ❤️😊 And thanks for eating the part of your cake that Mia put her knee in after crawling around a kids play area all morning 🤦🏼♀️"

Birthday-boy Gorka commented, "love you!! Thank you for my surprise"

The couple's latest celebration comes as the family let cameras into their home as part of their new TV series, Gemma and Gorka: Life Behind The Lens. The show airs every Wednesday on W and UKTV Play.
