Gorka Marquez did see the funny side as he made a bittersweet observation about his daughter after spending months away from home. The Strictly Come Dancing star has spent eight weeks on the road with a number of his co-stars from the BBC One dance contest.
The Strictly Come Dancing The Professionals live tour saw Gorka and the likes of Karen Hauer, Vito Coppola, Nikita Kuzmin, Nancy Xu, Neil Jones and Luba Mushtuk travelling up and down the country, performing to the show's many fans.
But the tour meant Gorka, 33, was away from home for a long stint and he and his fiancee Gemma Atkinson have made no secret of the fact that they spend periods of time apart and the challenges it brings for them both, especially with two children - Mia, four, and 10-month-old Thiago.

That being said, the family of four were reunited over the weekend and just in time for he penultimate episode of their own reality series, Gemma and Gorka: Life Behind the Lens, which airs on W.
Following the latest episode on Monday (June 3), a clip was shared on social media in which Mia could be seen holding court as she acted as the teacher of her mum and dad.
"Thank you for teaching us," Gemma said as Gorka echoed: "Thank you, teacher!" They heaped praise on their daughter before she ran off saying she had to 'go outside'. But Hits Radio host Gemma quickly stopped her in her tracks and told her she needed to wrap up warm by putting a jumper on.
"The thing with Mia is, she's obviously tiny but mentally, she's like a proper adult isn't she?" Gemma, 39, says to Gorka.
