STACEY Dooley threw a pretty pink party for adorable daughter Minnie as she turned one.

The former Strictly Come Dancing star - who met partner and baby-daddy Kevin Clifton, 41, during her stint on the BBC series - delighted fans with a round-up of the little girl's special day.

Proud parents Stacey, 36, and Kevin pulled out all the stops for the milestone event, covering tables with champagne glasses adorned with pink bows .

Plenty of fizz was available to fill them - with a pink-iced three-tiered cake adorned with the words Minnie Is One perfect for a snack.

The couple had decorated the space with dozens of pink, silver and white helium balloons with streamers on the bottom.

As they rose to the ceiling, the streamers hung down on the party-goers below in stunning scenes captured for her Instagram page.

They then enjoyed a sweet moment with their daughter, which saw them standing in front of the cake and the professional dancer cuddling her in his arms.

Perhaps a little overwhelmed with the attention the tot - wearing a white jumper and matching ruffle party skirt - snuggled into his chest.

BBC documentary-maker Stacey beamed with delight as she stood alongside them.

She donned a chic leopard-print suit and tied her hair in a sleek low bun.

The Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over host held the cake - adorned with a single sparkler - as the group celebrated.

She added a caption of a crying-face Emoji to show her emotion, as one fan commented: "SO precious."

A second put: "How perfect!" as a third commented: "Happy birthday Minnie ( Stacey’s Minnie me xxx)"

One then added: "Happy 1st birthday Minnie! Beautiful photo."

The happy moment came after Stacey was cruelly mum-shamed by some last year.

Meanwhile, the stars broke the news of Minnie's happy arrival last January on Instagram.

She revealed her baby's name too, writing: "Our Daughter is here.

"My little masterpiece! I'm COMPLETELY OBSESSED. Love you Minnie, Love you Kev x."

The star shared a picture of a letter addressed to "Minnie's parents."

Kevin wrote a similar sweet post, saying: "Our daughter is here. The most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.

"So proud of u @sjdooley. Love u Minnie , Love u Stace x."

Last year, the journalist exclusively told The Sun how motherhood was "the hardest gig ever."

They announced Stacey was pregnant with Minnie in August 2022.

Stacey said: “I don’t subscribe to the idea that you offer more stability if you’re married, because we know loads of marriages end in divorce.

“But Kev, I don’t want to sound too gushing or soppy, but I couldn’t have done this without Kev. I couldn’t have done this with anyone else.”
