Vernon Kay was accompanied by his and Tess Daly’s daughter Phoebe, 19, in a rare appearance together at the Vanity Fair EE Rising Star party on Wednesday.
However, many attendees would be forgiven for assuming she was Tess, thanks to their doppelgänger appearance.
The father-daughter duo mingled with a star-studded guestlist from across the creative industries at the swanky pre-Bafta Film Awards affair, held at Pavyllon London at Four Seasons Hotel London at Park Lane.
Metro was there and we saw Phoebe and her 49-year-old dad from the back, chatting at the bar, and assumed it was Strictly Come Dancing co-presenter Tess, 54.
Aside from her mother’s colouring, the youngster has also inherited both her parents’ height, meaning it was an easy conclusion to jump to.
However, on second, closer look, it turned out to be an unusual public appearance for Phoebe, alongside Vernon.
Phoebe, who has been kept out of the spotlight by her protective parents, looked stunning after opting for a metallic silvery sheath cocktail dress.
She paired it with strappy white heels, a collection of bangles and a black clutch bag, keeping her blonde hair loose.
Meanwhile, BBC Radio 2 host Vernon, 49, looked dapper in a black evening suit with silk lapels and a black shirt worn open at the collar.
He and TV star and former model Tess also share youngest daughter Amber, 14.
They celebrated their 20th wedding anniversary in September, having tied the knot back in 2003.
Phoebe made her red carpet debut, also alongside her dad, last year at the John Wick: Chapter 4 UK premiere in March, rocking a pair of black pleather trousers with split hems.
In August, he and Tess took Phoebe out to celebrate her A-level results together at the Ivy Asia in Manchester’s Spinningfields, after she spent the last several years focused on her schoolwork and studies.
Other famous youngsters at the pre-Baftas party, which is held to celebrate the only category at the EE Bafta Film Awards voted for by the public, included Mel B’s daughter Phoenix Chi Brown.
The 24-year-old DJ looked super-stylish in a black skirt and cream distressed jacket, which she wore with a black tie, and hopped on the decks during the course of the evening.
The party honoured Rising Star nominees Jacob Elordi, Phoebe Dynevor, Ayo Edebiri, Mia McKenna-Bruce and Sophie Wilde, with Mia and Sophie in attendance.
Other guests included Sanditon star Rose Williams, comedian Katherine Ryan, singer Paloma Faith, radio star Vick Hope and former Strictly champion Rose Ayling-Ellis.
