As the star revealed in his caption, it was his mum and dad's wedding anniversary, and they married an incredible 49 years ago.

In the photo, Jamie's mum looks stunning in a silk effect dress with fluted sleeves and a dramatic veil. Her long blonde hair flowed past her shoulders and she was every inch the beautiful blushing bride.

The star shared a photo from his parents' wedding

The star is clearly in a nostalgic mood at the moment, as just a couple of days ago, he shared a never-before-seen photo from his childhood.

The chef's father turned 69 on Friday, and while Jamie couldn't celebrate with him in person, he did share a stunning childhood photo of himself and his brother with their dad.

In the photo, the boys, who looked identical, were being cradled by their father, who was wearing a waterproof coat.

Other photos saw Jamie's sons with their grandfather and other childhood memories, including his father helping him blow the candles out on a cake shaped like a train.

In a touching caption, the star gushed: "A massive Happy Birthday to my wonderful Dad. Today he is 69 years old!!! Woop woo … have a great day and a special week in gorgeous Italy!!

"I'm gutted I can't be with you Dad….tonight I will raise a glass, cheers, and I will be thinking of what an awesome Dad you have always been…big love Jamie x x; enjoy 69 Dad next year is the big one xxxx."
