Strictly Come Dancing star Kym Marsh has shared a cute snap of her baby grandson with her Instagram followers.

The former Coronation Street star took to her social platform to post a picture of baby Clayton wearing an adorable white hat with fluffy pompoms.

"Oh Clay!!!!! How I LOVE YOU!!!!" Marsh wrote in the caption.

"Thank you for my beautiful grandson," she added, tagging her son David Cunliffe, who welcomed Clay in August last year with his partner Courtney Carter.

Best known as a member of pop group Hear'Say and for the role of Michelle Connor on Corrie, Marsh also took part in the 20th season of Strictly with pro dancer Graziano Di Prima.

In a recent interview, Marsh revealed she almost quit the dancing competition as the stress triggered her panic attacks.

"I don't know exactly what caused it, I think I'd had some harsh comments from the judges the week before, I've been working other jobs at the same time too, so it's tiring, and I just lost my confidence completely," she told The Sun last November.

Luckily, she was able to recover thanks to the help of Di Prima and fellow celebrity dancer Hamza Yassin, who would go on to win the season.

"[Hamza] just calmed me down and tried to remind me 'We're only dancing', and it was Graziano who really pulled me through," Marsh explained.

"He's just the most incredible man."

Strictly Come Dancing's returns on BBC One later in the year, while spin-off show Strictly: It Takes Two will air on weeknights on BBC Two. Both shows also stream on BBC iPlayer.
