They may not be together anymore but Rebecca Adlington has revealed her ex-husband Harry Needs remains a dear friend.
The former I’m A Celebrity star posted a sweet tribute to the father of her child, Summer, on Instagram to mark his 26th birthday.
Sending him her best wishes for his special day, Becky wrote: “Thank you for being an amazing dad, a great friend and always being there to give me a piggy back in life. Have a lovely day. Let’s hope Summer only has a few meltdowns today.”
The caption was beside a picture of them both swinging their two-year-old while on a dog walk.
Her comment touched many of her followers, with the picture gaining thousands of likes.
One told her: “You and Harry must be so proud at how you co-parent Summer. You are succeeding at something that many separated parents fail at. I’m sure Summer appreciates the way that both her parents work together to provide her with a stable loving childhood.”
Another said: “Summer is very lucky to have you both.”
Olympic swimmer Becky announced she was separating from Harry, also a former swimmer, in May 2016 after 18 months of marriage.
The couple had tied the knot in August 2014 and welcomed their daughter the following year.
