Bobby Brazier kicks back on an incredible family holiday after months of gruelling rehearsals and dazzling dancefloor displays on Strictly Come Dancing.
The soap star managed some quality time with his dad Jeff, 44, and younger brother Freddie, 19, as they all headed to Mauritius after a manic few months. The 20-year-old actor also laughed away with his dad's wife Kate Dwyer as they celebrated his success with the fun trip. He undertook some snorkeling before posing topless with his TV presenter father as they enjoy the final few days.
Jeff said it was the perfect break and captioned his post: "At the end of a memorable year full of a little bit of everything we needed to rest, relax and make some memories. We're so lucky to have had the opportunity to sit in the sun and to do as much or as little as we please on our special family adventure.

A relaxing holiday to Mauritius with his family was in order after a hectic few months (Instagram)"We swam with dolphins, read a few books, played golf, met new friends, ate far too much incredible food & most importantly switched off. I hope you guys have had the opportunity to do the same. It's a beautiful location @your_sunlife thank you. @katebrazierpr @bobbybrazier Fred & myself have had the reset we needed and so much more."
Bobby's dad earlier uploaded a clip of him taking part in a dance class. The TV presenter said: "The 'Strictly Sugar' Samba lesson taken by an amazing teacher has got @katebrazierpr & I in the mood for lessons in the new year! "Obviously @bobbybrazier was in his element and I didn't want to stand too close to those hips but I was surprised by how much fun it was and how many people took part! Looks like Kate & I have got a new hobby to enjoy together!"

Bobby has opened up about the support of his family and how it kepts him going on Strictly Come Dancing. The EastEnders star's father and brother have regularly been seen in the audience, cheering him on. However, grandmother Jackiey Budden, who is the mother of Bobby's late mum, Jade Goody, is said to be banned from attending the live shows following her fractured relationship with Jeff after a long-running feud that's spanned decades.
Speaking to The Mirror and other press, when asked about his family support, he said: "I realised the other day - which I'm really grateful to have re-remembered - is that the reason that doing stuff like this is so so fun and so cool is because it's not just me who experiences it, but it's my team too. It's my friends and family and my nearest and dearest that all experience it to the same level.
"That's the best thing in the world. I love it and I love that so much to be able to bring my best friends or my friends to cool things that I'm able to do. That's what makes it fun because otherwise - I don't really know." ackiey's troubled relationship with Jeff has meant she's missed out on seeing Bobby perform live during his time on Strictly Come Dancing. Insisting she's still supporting him, she said recently: "Unfortunately I haven’t seen Bobby live. I would have loved to, but it’s just one of those things. I’ve been supporting him from home, watching every moment."
