She is busy with her Love Island hosting duties in Mallorca.
But new mum Laura Whitmore was taking some time out of work to bond with her adorable baby daughter, three months, on Friday.
The Irish TV presenter, 36, who shares her little one with husband Iain Stirling, took to Instagram to share a snap of her baby’s feet while she sat in her pram.

In the new photo, the little girl could be seen wearing an adorable striped baby gro and pink socks with the words ‘Of course I’m cute’ on them.
Proud mum Laura then captioned the snap: ‘When you know, you know…’.
The blue skies of Mallorca were slightly visible in the background as Laura jetted out there last month to film the new series.
The new snap comes after earlier this week Laura revealed that she will ‘fly back and forth’ between the UK and Spain with her three-month-old daughter while filming Love Island in Mallorca.

The presenter shares her little girl with her husband Iain – who is the voice of the show – however Iain, 33, will be recording his side-splitting commentaries from a London voiceover booth, meaning Laura’s mother will be accompanying her and her daughter on their journeys abroad.
Laura explained: ‘Every time I fly over, she’ll go with me because I’m breastfeeding.’
The blonde beauty added that her mother – who resides in Laura’s native Ireland – is ‘excited’ to be accompanying her to-and-fro over the next few weeks, saying: ‘She’s excited, it’s her first grandchild.’
Speaking to Grazia, Laura also touched upon the show’s hiatus, telling the magazine that the last season ‘feels like forever ago’.

‘But there was no point trying to do the show last summer with all the restrictions and having to do it in Wales,’ she added. ‘That worked for the jungle [on I’m A Celebrity…] but Love Island needs to be hot.’
Laura – who will film the show’s spin-off Aftersun from London and fly back to Spain for surprise visits and recouplings – also suggested that this year’s Love Island is likely to be particularly steamy, with contestants having lacked intimacy for more than a year as a result of lockdown.
As for the contestants themselves, Laura admitted she prefers not knowing too much about them, wanting to avoid preconceptions and meet them along with the rest of the nation watching at home.
She also revealed that this year there were more applications than ever, with hopefuls even sliding into her direct messages on social media asking Laura to help them bag a place on the show, despite her having nothing to do with casting – which is no surprise, seeing as the show is a hit even among A-listers including Margot Robbie and Kate Beckinsale – who once approached Iain at an award ceremony after recognising his voice.

Laura also spoke candidly about the show’s diversity drive, with many viewers pointing out in past seasons that the show is lacking when it comes to race, age and body types.
The Irish star said that when it comes to casting, the Love Island team is actively trying to be more diverse, however much of the decision making is based on contestants’ personalities and whether or not they will be compatible with one another.
Elsewhere in the interview, Laura admitted that Love Islanders’ newfound fame can be ‘overwhelming’, adding that she feels very protective over castmates thrust into the spotlight.
After former Love Islander Mike Thalassitis’ death in 2019, producers announced key changes to Islanders’ duty of care and said all would be able to access therapy sessions, social media and financial training, and a minimum of 14 months of ‘proactive’ contact.
Laura said that she, too, has dealt with her fair share of online trolling, however added that she is less concerned with what people think of her now that she’s older.
The series – which has been running for six years – has been marred by several tragedies with contestants Sophie Gradon, 32, and Mike, 26, as well as host Caroline Flack, 40, taking their own lives.
