Emily’s dad was a member of the 1970s pop group Child with his twin Tim, a British pop group consisting of singer Graham Bilbrough, guitarist Dave Cooper, Keith on bass and Tim on drums.

Keith and Tim went on to become session musicians, backing the likes of David Cassidy, Rick Astley and Bonnie Tyler in the 1980s. They also formed a singing duo under the names Atack and The Duel.

"Always interesting googling your family," said Emily as she shared nostalgic photos of the twins from the 80s.
