Gemma Atkinson has revealed the exciting milestone her baby daughter Mia has hit – she can now crawl! The actress, who welcomed Mia with boyfriend and Strictly Come Dancing pro Gorka Marquez in 2019, took to Instagram on Tuesday to announce the happy news. However, Gemma did admit that Mia's milestone made her a "nervous wreck".

In the video, the actress could be heard saying: "Hi guys, I know everyone's doing makeup tutorials at the minute so I thought I'd show you mine. There's only four items that I use really on a daily basis, the first one being concealer. Now I love concealer for under the eye area, it's really, really good for basically covering these dark circles, so all you need to do is take your concealer and you just put a little bit under your eye..."
