Emma Willis praises 'rainbow boy' son Ace and 'completely unique' kids with rare snaps

Emma Willis has made a gushing post about her three children to mark Children's Mental Health Week.

The TV presenter, 44, took to Instagram to share rare photos of her children, Isabelle, 11, Ace, nine, and four-year-old Trixie, who she shares with her husband Matt Willis.

She called Ace her "rainbow boy", Isabelle her "teenager before her time" and Trixie her "boss lady baby".

In the snaps, which disguised all of the children's identities, Isabelle wore a red Stranger Things t-shirt and blue jeans as she looked at her mum taking the photo, while Trixie wore a sparkly black and gold skirt with a black top and matching leggings as she looked away from the camera.

Ace showed off his pink hair and sported a pair of blue dungarees as he played on his phone.

Emma captioned the post: "Expressing themselves for #childrensmentalhealthweek.

"Raised in exactly the same way, yet all completely unique.

"My teenager before her time, my boss lady baby and my rainbow boy.️

"This week I've watched them discuss and explore their own mental health with their teachers and class mates and I couldn't be prouder.

"I don't remember experiencing anything like this when I was at school but it's so obviously necessary for our kids, so their little minds can start to understand their thoughts, feeling, and emotions and that they feel comfortable expressing them."

In October 2020, Emma received wide-spread praise for 'breaking gender stereotypes' when she unveiled a stylish snap of her son, Ace.

The image showed Ace dressed in a pink crop top, distressed blue jeans and pink trainers, while also sporting long blond hair.

Following the 'overwhelming' response about the picture, Emma also went on to reveal that she had raised Ace to be an 'open-minded' individual.

During an appearance on Good Morning Britain, she said: "He's a very free and open-minded boy who is like, 'Why do I have to dress in green and blue and grey if I like pink and red and purple? Why is that not okay?'

"We're raising him as an open-minded and inclusive individual."
