Strictly’s Gemma Atkinson trains daughter Mia Louise, three, to be her gym buddy

Gemma Atkinson has revealed she is instilling a love of exercise into her three-year-old daughter at an early age as the pair hit the gym together. 

The actress, 37, shared an adorable video of her and daughter Mia Louise working out in their home gym together as the tot followed her mother’s moves with some toy weights of her own. 

Gemma shared a clip of them warming up and then doing some exercises together as she told her followers: ‘Every Saturday we spend time in the gym. 

‘She asks questions, she watches, she learns, she grows. I hope you always want to train with me Mia.’

Gemma shares Mia with her partner Gorka Marquez, who she met while appearing on Strictly Come Dancing together. 

With two parents who are so into their fitness, it’s no wonder that Mia is already showing an interest in hitting the gym herself.

Gemma also shared some sweet clips of Mia trying out the gymnastics rings which were suspended from the ceiling – with a little help from mum, of course. 

She could be heard saying: ‘Mummy, lets take it in turns. You go and then me, ok?’


Gemma could be seen holding onto the rings and pulling her knees up to her chest before Mia chimed in: ‘My turn!’

The pair rounded off their training session with some stretches on the floor – though their two dogs appeared to want to get in on the action. 

Gemma was seen struggling to get into a cobra position – which Mia was nailing – because one of their dogs was also trying to get involved and seriously getting in her way. 

Mia definitely makes for the cutest gym buddy – and what better time to learn great habits for life.
