Holly chooses to keep all three of her children’s faces from public view, and this picture shows Belle looking away from the camera.
Encouraging her daughter to be brave and bold in this world, she also gushed over how ‘inspiring’ she already found her.
She captioned the photo with: “Take those dreams little Belle and know things are changing… An equal world is a more enabled world… It’s all in your grasp…
An equal world is a more enabled world
“I am inspired by the girl I watch grow everyday and am honoured to guide you and support you as you become the amazing woman I know you will be… #internationalwomensday #iwd2020 #eachforequal #women”.

Another enthused: “Beautiful words for a beautiful and inspirational woman Holly. Your daughter will most definitely be a force to reckon with as she grows. Well done to you.”

And a fourth posted: “That’s cute, guide our future women.”
Holly shares Belle with her husband Dan Baldwin. They also shares sons Harry, ten, and Chester, five, together.
She married production company owner Dan in 2007 and the family reside in south London.
Typically keeping her family life fairly private, she has spoken about the trials and tribulations of motherhood on just a few occasions.
Earlier this year she spoke to Closer magazine about the fear of mum-shaming and the “mummy brigade”.
She told the mag: “I don’t think women can win. Working mums and stay-at-home mums get a tough time.
“You’re damned if you do and damned if you don’t. You just have to do what’s right for you and not listen to what the mummy brigade say.”
