Emmerdale's Mike Parr 'proud' as he shows off 'son' on Instagram

Emmerdale's Mike Parr left fans in stitches as he shared a photo of his "son" on Instagram.

The actor is renowned for his role as Ross Barton and joined the cast of the long-running soap in 2013. Mike hails from St Helens and his character was last seen in the fictional village in 2018 before he departed the Yorkshire Dales to go to Liverpool.

Away from the world of showbiz, Mike has built up a large fanbase on Instagram as he keeps his 248k followers posted with exciting updates from his life. Since leaving Emmerdale, the 36-year-old has starred in a number of films, with others currently in production.

Captioning the snap, the former Ross Barton star said: "Thanks for coming to our son's graduation. We're so proud". Fans found the post hilarious, with many rushing to the comments section.

Lisa Houghton-Smith said: "Image of his dear old dad", while Martin Lowe said: "I can see the resemblance, it's in the eyes", and Craig said: "Lol mate never change". Charlotte said: "This is hilarious".
