Former EastEnders star Danniella Westbrook took a moment to reflect on her children Kai and Jodie's 'hard road' in an emotional post as she spent the day with them this weekend

Danniella Westbrook showed off her toned body as she spent the day with her children.

The former EastEnders star took to social media to document the family occasion with her rarely-seen kids, Jodie and Kai, as the group soaked up the sun.

Sporting a red bikini set, Danniella snapped away whilst relaxing on a sun lounger with her dog Bobby in tow.

The actress, 48, looked incredible in the post as she flaunted her toned physique in the garden.

In one snap, Daniella posed alongside Jodie and Kai in a wide-brimmed hat.

Captioning the family shot, she penned: "It’s been a hard road for my kids but I appreciate every moment I get with them. Thank you @kjfernandez23 @jodiebjenkins.

"Oh and @bobbymoorewestbrook mummy loves you."

Danniella later posted the same photo in black and white, telling fans: "Today they both came home to see momma."

The former soap star went on to add a lengthy caption, where she addressed her past battles with addiction.

It read: "Today I shared a little of my world and my heart with you all. Family is true love, family is where life starts and ends.

"For anyone who is walking through the darkness of an addiction right now, keep fighting, keep going, you will get a life back, you will in time get to make memories and get to make amends and build bridges with yourself and those you’ve hurt and humiliated along the way.

"The same way our addictions took time to manifest and take over us, it’s also take time to heal. But with determination, strength, hope, self love and repetition to get our life back and patience and understanding that others need time to process our wrongs and heal themselves also."

She continued: "Time wasted is gone, time healing is a blessing & time to reflect and appreciate others needs and ours is a lesson we all need to learn and put into action. The the time spent moving on, making memories and being present and experiencing life going forward is the best time of them all.

"So please if you are struggling today take a minute breathe and stay strong because can promise you all one thing... And that is It really is worth it, dig deep and remember you are loved."

Danniella regularly takes to social media to gush over her children - son Kai, 25, and daughter Jodie, 20.

Danniella welcomed son Kai with former partner Robert Fernandez, who she dated for two years in the 1990s.

Meanwhile, Jodie is the youngest child of former soap actor Danniella.

Her father is Kevin Jenkins, whom the I'm a Celebrity alum is said to have been married to from 2001 until 2020.

Jodie previously spoke about her relationship with her mum in an interview with the Daily Star, with her explaining that they don't get involved with each other's love lives.

Speaking about the dynamic with the outlet, she explained: "I let her get on with her love life, and she lets me get on with mine, and that's just how it's always worked."
