Steph McGovern shares heartwarming insight into relationship with rarely-seen daughter
Former BBC Breakfast star Steph McGovern has shared a heartwarming insight into her relationship with her four-year-old daughter.
Whilst the TV star and mother of one tends to keep her little one out of the spotlight, Steph thrilled fans at the weekend when she offered a rare insight into their mother-daughter bond.
Taking to Instagram on Saturday, Steph, 42, uploaded two snapshots of her eye-catching green manicure - a beauty transformation that involved the input of her little girl.
Sharing a glimpse inside their precious relationship, Steph revealed in her caption: "Let my daughter pick my nail colour….. and it's been such a conversation starter this week while I've been travelling round for work! Especially everytime I went into fluorescent lights…. which was surprisingly often."
The mother of one's fans and friends were quick to share sweet messages in the comments section. Reflecting on Steph's daughter's involvement, one follower penned: "She chose well," while a second commented: "Awww Steph you're glowing lol," and a third added: "Love it."

Steph welcomed her daughter in November 2019. She shares her little girl with her girlfriend who reportedly works as a TV executive.
In a bid to protect her family's privacy, the author and presenter has kept her loved ones' names under wraps and continues to conceal their identities on social media.
Speaking to The Express in 2022, Steph said: "I would just get too mad if I started reading negative things about them.
"My daughter has no choice and my partner's not in the public eye, so I wouldn't want to subject them to the opinion of others."
Although the former Channel 5 star tends to keep her family out of the spotlight, she did open up about her partner during a chat with Yours Magazine.
Musing on the secret to their happy relationship, Steph told the publication: "My partner and I have this brilliant rule where, if we're miffed about something, we have 24 hours in which to voice it. It means we have some cracking rows, but we solve things fairly quickly."
