Her two million followers loved the tribute, with one writing: “You made me cry… I love being a mumma too. And my mum is the best, she has always got my back. And she has picked me up when I was broken… my mum and my daughters keep me going. I love them sooooo much ❤.”

Another commented: “Beautiful lady, you should be proud of her, I know you are 😘😘.” While a third added simply: “Lovely photo 💜.”

Earlier this year, Katie opened up about her mum’s diagnosis with a terminal lung condition, admitting she is now deteriorating.

During an interview on ITV’s Loose Women, Katie admitted she’d ended up in rehab last year, in part, because: “I got told my mum was dying.”

She continued: “She has deteriorated, you would notice it. I look at it now and her little shaking – her little chest, I don’t know, you just notice it, don’t you?

“But I say to her, ‘The more you still moan at me, Mum, the more I know you’re alright!’ Even today she said, ‘Make sure you mention this, make sure you do that.’ Yes, Mum, yes, Mum!”
