Alex Jones shares breastfeeding snap as she makes 'one night only' return to The One Show

Alex Jones showed she was an expert multitasker as she returned to The One Show on Monday night.

The TV presenter returned to the BBC One programme weeks after giving birth to her baby daughter Annie.

Alex, 44, was back to reveal the RHS Garden of Hope at the Chelsea Flower Show.

She made clear that she would be back for "one night only" but added: "It's so nice to be back!"

Taking to Instagram before the episode, Alex, who is also mum to boys Ted and Kit, shared a candid breastfeeding snap.

"Multitasking," she simply captioned to post on her Stories before sharing videos from the BBC studio.

Alex also gave an update on her baby daughter, her third child with husband Charlie Thomson.

"We've been great, the boys have taken to little Annie brilliantly. Annie is here with my mum and dad, I've literally, honestly, she has just gone back to mum.

"I had to feed her, I was like: 'She's not going to stop feeding, ah!' so she's out there."

Alex, who looked stunning in a floaty, frilled teal dress, credited her parents for helping making her brief return possible.

Speaking on Annie, she said on The One Show: "She’s literally just gone back to mum, I had to feed her."

She then took to Instagram with a snap of them together at the Chelsea Flower Show, commenting: "Today wouldn't have been possible without these legends."

Another said: "Your looking gorgeous @MissAlexjones nice to see you back."

"I miss Alex, @BBCTheOneShow just isn’t the same without her & her cheery Welsh accent #TheOneShow," a third added as Alex returns to her maternity leave.
