She opened the post by saying: "In this photo, I was 5 years old.

"I actually remember this photo being taken! It was 2001; and I’d just spent the afternoon chasing around the house with my cousin.

"The only memories I have from the ages of 0-5 are those where I was surrounded by my family."

The reality TV star went onto detail some of her favourite memories as a child in the lookback post.

Zara added: "One of my favourite memories is my mum making me my own mermaid tail out of old curtains, because I was obsessed with the little mermaid!

"I would lay on the floor and flip about with my tail on!"

She further recalled memories of her mum allowing her to stay awake an extra five minutes in order for her to see her dad after work before she went to sleep.

Zara revealed he would often bring her a chocolate bar home and they would do a mini 'treasure hunt' before going to bed.

She wrote: "Sometimes, he would bring home a surprise chocolate bar (usually a Crunchie) and we would do a treasure hunt.

"He would hide it somewhere in the house and I’d have to find it!"
