For her second picture, Patricia looked adorable in a yellow tutu and unicorn hat as she played with her bucket and spade.

Sharing the album to her 645,000 followers, she penned: ‘After a gorgeous few days away building sandcastles I’m back for a summer stint on @lorraine.See you in the morning’

Her sweet post comes after she revealed that her footballer husband Frank ‘is like the son her mum and dad never had’ as she shared her secrets to a successful marriage.

Speaking candidly about her home life in the September edition of Women & Home, she said Frank will let her parents spoil him like herself even when she isn’t there.

She explained that she never takes her marriage with the now football manager for granted and they always make time to dress up and ‘have a proper laugh’. 

The Loose Women panellist said: ‘I love the relationship Frank has with my family. Frank is like the son my mum and dad never had. 

‘If I’m working or I’m away, he’ll happily sit on the sofa and get spoiled the same way I do, and he loves it. 

‘Of course, having our two little ones brings a whole new dimension to the family set-up.

‘I never take it for granted. Frank and I always make time for each other, which feels really special. 

We love getting dressed up, going somewhere nice and having a proper laugh. I still get excited about doing that. 

‘We’ll go out for some food, but if it’s in the evening, we’ll be back at a decent time because we know we’ll get woken up at the crack of dawn by work or a small child. 

‘I’m just as happy going out with Frank as I am going out with a gang of girls. I like a sneaky lunch so I can be back early and avoid a hangover. 

‘If I knew I could stay in bed and sleep the next day after a night out, fine, but I can’t.’

Christine also revealed the meaning behind her daughter’s name and how naming the tot was an emotional day for the family. 

She said: ‘Calling our daughter Patricia was a real nod to Frank’s mum, who passed away 16 years ago. 

‘There are still moments where losing his mum takes Frank’s breath away, and he can’t quite believe it’s been so long. 

‘There are certain moments on random days when it engulfs everything around him. I didn’t get to meet Frank’s mum, but there’s a lovely picture of her in our house, and even though the kids are really young, they know exactly who she is. 

‘It was a very emotional day when I asked Frank, ‘Why don’t we call our daughter Patricia?’ I think he was overwhelmed. 

‘I look at her now, and she’s nothing else but Patricia.’

Frank’s mother, Patricia, died after a battle with pneumonia in 2008 aged 58. 

The September issue of Woman&Home is on sale July, 25.
