The Repair Shop star Will Kirk gave a rare insight into his relationship with his young daughter on his Instagram page to celebrate Father's Day, leaving fans to gush over the snaps.

Kirk and his wife Polly Snowdon - whom he married in 2021 - welcomed their daughter and first child in July 2022 and have kept her name and face out of the public eye.


The doting dad recently shared a snap of himself and the youngster over the weekend to reveal that his first book, Restore, was hitting the shelves on June 18.

The images showed Kirk sitting on the sofa with the tot - who sported a pink cardigan, matching hair bows and floral leggings - looking through the book he proudly displayed.

He captioned the post: "The best Father’s Day present arrived through my letterbox this weekend. It's the first copy of my new book, RESTORE. It's out on 18th July, but available to preorder from Waterstones and Amazon now."

Fans were quick to comment on the rare sight of the tot, as one fan praised: "Congratulations!! Celebrating this date with this cuteness and this gift is certainly a blessing!!"

A second echoed: "This is adorable. Our girls used to say '(what) daddy doing?' It's become a well known phrase or saying in our daily family! Brilliant hearing it again."

"She’s Adorable! I will definitely look up your book on Amazon," a third expressed before another penned: "Your little girl is so adorable! Happy Father’s Day!"

"Isn’t she the cutest little girl ever got a feeling your book might get scribbled in! Happy Father’s Day Will," one teased before a sixth quipped: "Little one is too sweet!" (sic)

Kirk recently admitted that he found it "tricky" to leave his newborn and return to work telling Hello!: "I love her so much.

"It was quite tricky to leave home this morning to come down to The Repair Shop because she's so sweet in the mornings and she just looks up at you and she'd just woken up.

"I'm absolutely in love. It's the best thing I've ever done I think, having a child," he added. Keep scrolling to see peeks inside Will's home…"

Since being on the show since 2017, Kirk has worked on some staggering restorations, but he previously spoke about the one item that left him in tears and having to walk out for a "breather".

He previously told the Express: "There was a young boy called Jacob who bought in a rickety table and that was the first time I had to take my 10-15 minutes.

“Everyone behind the cameras was crying and it was just something that catches you off guard.

"Everything is relatable and I think that’s why the show has done so well because everyone can relate to different stories.”
