Holly’s caption read: “Little Belle… and this is why I love her… whilst watching the Queen meeting President Trump I was explaining to her about his ‘build a wall’ on the border policy and the impact of that…

“She replied to me … ‘mummy… I wouldn’t build a border, I’d build a bridge’ …”

Holly signed off the caption with a smiling, proud face emoji.

More than 80,000 people liked Holly’s post.

Holly is also mum to son Harry, nine, and three-year-old son Chester with TV producer husband Dan Baldwin, but they prefer to keep the children out of the limelight.

She rarely ever shares photos of the kids to social media and when she does, their faces are always obscured from the camera to protect their privacy.

Holly’s going to have lots more time to spend with her kids going forward as she’s just started her annual six-week summer break from This Morning.

Holly and co-host Phillip Schofield hosted their last This Morning before the holidays on Friday, telling viewers they would be back again in September.
