Lisa Faulkner shares very rare snap of teenage daughter for International Women’s Day
LISA Faulkner shared a sweet photo of her teenage daughter to mark for International Women’s Day.
The TV presenter melted hearts with a snap of Billie-May’s face turning into the sunlight.
She captioned her photo: “Happy International Women’s Day my daughter.
“You, my ‘beautiful in every single way’ girl inspire me and teach me every day.
“Am so very proud of the brave strong kind vivacious fun clever and beautiful woman you have grown into .. may the sun always shine on your face, may you always look for the chinks of light because they are always there my sunbeam.”
Her celebrity pals quickly reacted to the photo, with ex EastEnders actress Tamzin Outhwaite writing: “Such beautiful words for the beautiful Bills.”
Amanda Abbington said: “So beautiful. Beautiful mama. Beautiful Billie.”
And Kate Thornton said: “Beautiful words for a beautiful young woman.”
Lisa was previously married to EastEnders actor Chris Choghill from 2005-2011 and with whom she shares 16-year-old daughter Billie.
She married celebrity chef John Torode in 2019.
The pair met back in 2010 when Lisa was a contestant on Celebrity MasterChef while John was on the judging panel alongside Gregg Wallace.
They were both still married to their former partners at the time, and after Lisa won the show they formed a purely platonic friendship.
Then Lisa’s marriage to Chris ended while the chef split from wife Jess the same year.
