Christina Hall's ex-husband Ant Anstead loves nothing more than spending time with his family, and is notoriously private about his personal life.

However, over the weekend, Renee Zellweger's boyfriend delighted fans after sharing a rare series of photos featuring himself and his only daughter, Amelie, 19, who he shares with ex wife, Louise Anstead. 

In the pictures, Ant was a doting dad as he watched patiently as his teenager applied her makeup.
