Tess Daly recently delighted her Instagram followers by posting an enchanting throwback photo of her daughter Phoebe, who bears a striking resemblance to her mother. Daly nostalgically remarked that it “feels like yesterday.”
At 56, the television personality looked radiant in the snapshot, where her then-young daughter Phoebe, now 21, lovingly embraced her. Both were dressed in coordinating white tops.
With their blonde hair cascading freely, Tess and Phoebe, who is currently residing in New York City for a brief period, radiated joy in front of the camera.
The former Strictly Come Dancing host captioned the photo with: “Phoebe found this picture for Mother’s Day, and it honestly feels like yesterday. Now she’s 21 and living in NYC until summer! Time truly flies!”
Tess and her husband, fellow television star Vernon Kay, are parents to Phoebe and their younger daughter Amber Isabella, who is 16.
In the previous month, Tess and Vernon experienced a whirlwind getaway to New York City during the half-term break, where they reunited with Phoebe after her relocation to the U.S.
Tess Daly has shared an adorable childhood throwback snap of lookalike daughter Phoebe on Instagram and said ‘it feels like yesterday’
The TV presenter, 56, wrote: ‘Phoebe found this pic for mother’s day and it genuinely feels like yesterday and now she’s 21 and in living NYC until summer! Time flies!’
The TV presenter looked effortlessly chic during her trip to the States as she shared an array of snaps to Instagram.
She posed up a storm alongside her look-a-like daughter Phoebe and her youngest daughter Amber as they went sightseeing as a family.
Tess could be seen wearing a white jumper and blue jeans, which she paired with a Celine belt and Aviator sunglasses.
Meanwhile, Phoebe looked trendy with a pair of loose-fitting jeans, a black top and a fur-trimmed white jacket.
Tess looked happier than ever as she strolled the streets with Vernon and explored museums with Amber.
Alongside her post, she penned: ‘I ❤️ NYC. Maximised every minute on a whirlwind half-term trip & fell in love with this magical city all over again.’
Phoebe revealed she had moved to New York City in January 2026.
She took to Instagram to share a snap of herself at a rooftop bar in the Big Apple.
It appears to be a temporary move for Phoebe, however, as she captioned the snap: ‘Home for a while…’
It comes after Tess and her husband Vernon Kay shared the screen for the first time in nearly 20 years earlier this month when they guest hosted The One Show.
Tess and Vernon met when they were both working as up-and-coming presenters in separate shows on some of the country’s biggest TV channels.
At the time, Vernon was a host on Channel 4’s T4, and Tess presented SMTV on ITV on a Saturday morning.

Last month, Tess and Vernon enjoyed a ‘whirlwind’ half-term trip to the Big Apple as they visited their daughter Phoebe following her move to the States
The couple began dating shortly after meeting on T4, and went on to become one of TV’s best-known couples.
Both Tess and Vernon’s careers went from strength to strength, with the couple even presenting the BBC singing competition Just The Two Of Us together between 2006 and 2007.
Tess previously told Digital Spy of their relationship: ‘It was all quite immediate, really, because we instantly had such a blast together.
‘I couldn’t imagine having more fun with anyone else. It was pretty explosive, I tell you.’
She explained that a long-term relationship changes over time, saying: ‘You keep the fire burning, you keep stoking that fire.’
Added that her husband has grown up in recent years, Tess said: ‘I guess he is the same, but more mature. You know what men are like, they never really grow up, do they? Do they ever catch us up mentally? I don’t think so.’
Two years after meeting, they tied the knot in 2003 at St Mary’s Church in Horwich, Vernon’s hometown.
According to Hello!, the couple hosted their reception at the nearby Rivington Hall Barn.
Vernon said he was ‘over the moon’ at his low-key wedding, after the couple decided to ditch holding a high-profile celebrity bash.
Instead, some carefully considered celebrity guests at the wedding included Big Brother winner Brian Dowling and T4 presenter June Sarpong.
DJ Brandon Block was also on hand to provide entertainment at the reception party.
