Tess Daly and her lookalike daughter Phoebe Kay have revealed they are 'working together' on a mystery project.
Taking to Instagram on Wednesday with a glamorous snap, the presenter, 57, beamed alongside her eldest daughter, 21, as they appeared to be in a dressing room somewhere.
Tess wowed in a lilac buttoned-up top and matching trousers, while Phoebe kept it stylish in a simple black vest top and embroidered dark denim jeans.
Hinting at their upcoming project together, Tess penned: 'No longer bring your daughter to work day, but working alongside her @phoebeekay.'
Tess and Phoebe's decision to work together comes after Phoebe's dad Vernon Kay insisted that he and Tess would not be raising their daughters to be pampered nepo babies.
The showbiz couple, who announced their split in a joint statement in May after 22 years of marriage, share daughters Phoebe and Amber, 17.

Speaking in an interview in April, Vernon said he and Tess have always instilled a strong work ethic in their daughters, encouraging them to 'go out and graft'.
'Now that Phoebe is 21 and Amber is nearly 17, our relationship with them is changing. We talk about encouraging them to leave the nest and be independent but we don’t really want them to.'
He went on to reveal that the couple fear for their children, remembering the terror of drink spiking when Phoebe was old enough to go clubbing.
'You have to learn to enter their world and that world has pitfalls that just didn’t exist for us'.
Vernon then shared Tess's core lesson which he said had always remained the same for their children: 'You’ve got to go out and graft'.
He told The Times: 'That’s something we’ve tried to instil in our girls. They’re still working out what they want to do but we’ve told them: "Your mum and I aren’t going to give you everything"'.
Phoebe moved to New York last year to study and pursue a modelling career and is also studying film production.
She made her red carpet debut much later than other nepo babies - waiting until 2023 when she attended the movie premiere of John Wick Chapter 4 in London's Leicester Square.

Tess has continued to wear her wedding ring after announcing her split from Vernon.
In a joint announcement, the former Strictly host and DJ said they had reached a mutual agreement to go their separate ways, though friends of the couple said they were both still at their marital home in Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire.
The couple wrote: 'After much consideration, and with a deep sense of care and respect for one another, we have made the decision to separate amicably.
'This has not been an easy choice, but it comes from a place of mutual understanding and a shared desire of what is best for both of us...
'We remain great friends and, most importantly, fully committed to our roles as loving and supportive parents, which will always be our priority.
'There are no other parties involved in this decision. We kindly ask for privacy during this time.
'We will not be making any further public comments.'
