Inside Gemma Atkinson and Strictly star Gorka Marquez’s first Christmas with adorable baby Thiago and daughter Mia
GEMMA Atkinson has shared an insight into her and Gorka Marquez’s first Christmas with baby Thiago.
The proud parents welcomed their bundle of joy into the world earlier this year.
Actress Gemma, 39, and Gorka, 33, announced his birth in July, adding to their family.
The loved-up couple already have daughter Mia, four, who is now a big sister.
As they all prepare to enjoy their first Christmas together, Hollyoaks star Gemma revealed the foursome will have a ‘traditional’ day at home.
Speaking to the Daily Star, she said: “Christmas Day is at our house. It’ll be traditional, at home with party hats, playing games and watching Only Fools and Horses!”
Everyone will be together as Strictly professional Gorka will fly his parents in from Spain.
Gorka previously spoke about what a Christmas celebration in his native Spain usually entails.
In a chat with Closer Magazine, the dancer said it’s a “full party” that can last for two whole weeks, giving people “any excuse not to work”.
Meanwhile, Gemma was recently forced to hit back after being criticised for weaning her baby son at four months old.
The mum-of-two had told fans how she “knew” baby Thiago was ready for solid food because he was “draining his bottles”, “puckering his lips” and “reaching out”.
As a result, Gemma began feeding Thiago two bowls of baby porridge a day in addition to his usual bottles of milk two weeks ago.
But after sharing the milestone with her Instagram followers, Gemma was accused of “spreading misinformation to new mams”.
