Taking to her Instagram Stories on Thursday, the business presenter shared a black-and-white snap of her two children, which showed the star's young son sitting on the closed lid of a toilet while holding his little sister in his arms.

The broadcaster, who is married to a caterer named Ted, shared a heartwarming photo of her baby girl who was fast asleep in her parents' bed beside the family cat, who lay at the end of the duvet. 

She penned in the caption: "Sleepy gals".

While BBC Breakfast viewers will be missing seeing Nina on their screens every morning, the star has been keeping her Instagram followers up to date on what she's been up to since heading off on maternity leave at the end of June. 

In a post shared in July, Nina shared a variety of photos of her newborn and opened up about her post-partum experience. "We've lost all sense of time as we've been feeding and snoozing and gazing and toe-stroking and head-smelling and marvelling at the absolute wonder of it all," she said, before revealing that her delivery was "tougher" and her recovery has been "longer" than her previous two pregnancies.

Detailing some of her symptoms, she wrote: "I'd forgotten the anxiety of labour moving from the plan. I'd forgotten the swollen scars, bleeding breasts, mastitis fever, hormonal crashes, clots, constipation, codeine withdrawal, exhaustion…. And this time the added funk of a nose bleed (y tho?!)."

Nina's post was met with overwhelming positivity from her followers, with many applauding the star for her honesty. One person commented: "So much respect for your honesty."

Marking ten years since they first crossed paths with a series of throwback snaps, Nina wrote on her Instagram Story in July: "Ten years ago today I met @fedbyted1at a festival. We spent the rest of the festival together."

Posting a video of a disco ball hanging from her kitchen ceiling in her home in Manchester, she continued: "Now a teeny tiny kitchen disco ball is all we have left of the rave," adding: "I wouldn't change a thing."
