Strictly Come Dancing star Kai Widdrington has posted a throwback photo of himself and his professional footballer brother.
The professional dancer – who was paired up with AJ Odudu on the last series of the dancing contest – shared an image gallery to his Instagram to mark his younger brother Theo's birthday.
Among more recent shots of them together and a few of Theo on the pitch, Kai also included a cute picture of the two of them as children.

In the image (the fifth in the photo gallery above), the two siblings are posing with their mother, both giving an adorable smile to the camera.
"Happy birthday little brother," Kai captioned the series of photos, adding a red heart emoji.
In January and February this year, Widdrington was on tour with his Strictly family. However, his partner Odudu had to step down from the competition following an ankle injury, being replaced by EastEnders star Maisie Smith.
Ahead of tour, Widdrington took to Instagram to pay a sweet tribute to Odudu and welcome Smith to the team.

"I'm really gutted to hear that @ajodudu won't be able to join me on the BBC Strictly Tour around the UK," Widdrington wrote at the time. "I know we were both really focused and willing to get back on the floor in the Arenas and finish what we started."
Meanwhile, it was confirmed last month that professional dancer Aljaž Škorjanec has quit the show after 9 years to focus on other projects, saying that he would be "forever grateful" for the opportunity and all of the people behind the scenes who made it happen.
Strictly Come Dancing airs on BBC One.
