Ms Siddiq said: “Nazanin told me that this is what she missed most while she was imprisoned — everyday moments with her little girl.

“Today was Gabriella’s choice of making homemade pizzas for lunch.”

Nazanin, 44, of Hampstead, North London, was detained on trumped-up security charges in Iran in 2016 after a holiday.

Channel 4 is to air a documentary about husband Richard’s efforts to free her.

It will include the moment he heard her detention was linked to a £400million tank debt Britain owed to Iran dating back to the 1970s.

It also follows the final days of negotiations with the British Foreign Office in Tehran and Mrs Zaghari-Ratcliffe's journey home.

A spokesperson for Channel 4 said: "Nazanin is an intimate, access-driven documentary — part love story, part political thriller.

"It has a human story with a big heart and mixes original, observational filming with never before seen material filmed by Nazanin herself about her ordeal."
