TV chef Jamie Oliver is jokingly told off by his mum

You're never too old

You’re never too old to get told off by your mum – as Jamie Oliver has recently found out.

The celebrity chef posted an adorable Instagram photo of his smiling baby son River, eight months, lying on a tiled floor.

“Morning little boy… always good to get a nice smile,” he wrote.

His mother Sally responded: “This adorable child! He looks so like you as a baby! But please get him off that hard floor now.”

Instagram followers loved the comment. “Haha… I love that your mom busted you!!! Go Granny!!!” wrote one.

“Love that you still get told off by your mum too,” wrote another.

Another fan wrote. “We all played on the floor! Good times.”

Sally soon made sure fans knew she was only joking when she added another comment:

“The floor is very clean and River is very well cared for, I was only teasing Jamie.”

People were also quick to note how cute Jamie’s son was. “Just like Dad always smiling,” wrote one.

Jamie and his wife Jools are also parents to Poppy, 15, Daisy, 14, Petal, eight and Buddy, six.

The chef has revealed that his elder children look after the younger ones. “Even with Buddy, Poppy and Daisy have been incredible adult figures,” he told Woman magazine last year. “Sometimes I think they’re better parents than I am.”

Poppy and Daisy watched their mum giving birth to River – with Poppy even cutting the baby’s umbilical cord.

“Often mums have to work hard for teenage girls and I just thought it was an amazing moment to respect your mum for being pretty damn incredible,” Jamie said, adding that he’d recorded the special moment.
