"Had a special lunch at @mererestaurant - & great to be able to say hello to exceptional chef @galettigram - kicking the weekend’s celebrations off in style!"

She then shared a snap showing them with chef Monica before Mark proudly showed off his birthday brownie.

Mark seems to prefer a private life and leaves the spotlight to his wife.

The family currently live in their home in Surrey - which boasts a luxary cosy living room and a spacious garden.

The pair have been married for 15 years after tying the knot on August 23, 2008 at Chichester Cathedral - the church of the bride's father.

They tied the knot in front of their closest friends and family members - including fellow presenters Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes.

The couple exchanged their vows in front of the bride's uncle - who acted as Minister for the ceremony.

They dated for over five years before finally saying 'I do'.

During her time on Strictly Come Dancing, Charlotte was forced to shut down rumours of the show's infamous curse.

The morning TV presenter told : "One of the things I get asked about most is the 'curse of Strictly', but it's not an issue as we're very happily married."
