They may no longer be a couple, but pop stars Brian McFadden and Kerry Katona were united in celebrating the 21st birthday of their first born daughter Molly. Molly turned 21 on Wednesday and both her mum and dad took to social media to say just how proud they are of their "baby girl".
Rochdale-based Brian and Cheshire-based Kerry both took to Instagram with emotional posts in Molly's honour. They both shared adorable throwback images of Molly as a baby as well as cute photos of Molly as she is today.
