Nina Warhurst shares heart-warming clip of dad meeting new baby

BBC presenter Nina Warhurst has posted a heartwarming video of her father meeting her gorgeous baby girl Nance.

Taking to her Instagram story in view of her 24,900 followers, the BBC Breakfast star captioned the cute clip: “Still got it.”

In the short video, the proud grandfather could be seen gently wiggling the newborn’s toes as he whistled affectionately.

Nina also tagged @DementiaAdventures in the post, as her father suffers from the devastating illness.

Since her dad Chris was diagnosed with dementia last year, 42-year-old Nina has spoken openly about how it has affected their family.

“Dementia is tightening its grip quite quickly now,” she wrote in a previous post. “Dad is losing some basic skills and is increasingly reluctant to go out.”

Nina shares her baby daughter, as well as sons Digby and Michael, with her husband Ted.

In another sweet snap on her story, one of her sons could be seen holding his baby sister as the proud mum added the caption: “My big little helper [crying emoji].”

Since giving birth last month, Nina is planning a much-needed break with her girlfriends to Spain.

The star has admitted that she is facing a “longer recovery” as she found this round of childbirth “tougher” than the times before.

She told her followers last month: “It’s been *haaaard* tho! A harder pregnancy. A tougher delivery and a longer recovery… maybe it’s being older… but also I’d somehow forgotten.

 

“I’d forgotten the anxiety of labour moving from the plan,” she explained.

“I’d forgotten the swollen scars, bleeding breasts, mastitis fever, hormonal crashes, clots, constipation, codeine withdrawal, exhaustion…. And this time the added funk of a nose bleed (y tho?!)”

“But part of getting older is getting better aquatinted with your limits and letting go,” she added wisely.

BBC Breakfast airs weekdays from 6am on BBC One.
