Gemma Atkinson shares home rule as Gorka Marquez returns home for a few days amid touring

Gemma Atkinson appears to have shared a rule she and Gorka Marquez have implemented at home in a bid to keep their daughter in touch with her roots. Three-year-old Mia is currently enjoying having her dancer dad back home as he spends a few days with her and her fiance Gemma in between shows.

Gemma, 38, shared last month how she was 'riding solo' as Gorka, 32, prepared to hit the road with his new tour, Firedance, alongside his Strictly Come Dancing co-star, dance partner and friend, Karen Hauer. The tour has since begun and last week, Gorka made a brief visit home which led to Gemma sharing a heartbreaking post.

The Hits Radio host opened up about her daughter's difficult goodbye to her father, saying that both toddler Mia and doting dad Gorka burst into tears as he went back to work after a "short and sweet" visit of 24 hours. To mark Gorka being home the trio had another Pancake Day together.
