Former Coronation Street star Ryan Thomas has shared a moving tribute his mum has paid to him and his two brothers - while spotting a particular detail in a photograph taken after the event.
Ryan took to Instagram to post a picture taken with his mum at a luxury hotel in Cornwall as they enjoyed some time together.
In the picture Ryan is wearing a smart black polo top teamed with white trousers and trainers, while his mum Gail Waring wears a cream-coloured outfit with a matching bag.
In the sky two birds can be seen flying overhead, which caused Ryan to make a quip. "Mum had her first tattoo with 3 birds representing her 3 boys…2 flying above & her favourite by her side @adamthomas21 @scott.thomas," he wrote in the caption.
