Gorka Marquez has made a vow to his daughter after fans were left in tears over a family moment set to feature in their reality show. The dancer and his fiancee Gemma Atkinson are once again currently showing the realities of their busy family life in their own popular show.

The couple first appeared in their own reality TV series last year ahead of the arrival of their second child. It showed the pair opening up their lives and Greater Manchester home to the cameras as they documented their second pregnancy journey and the "absolute utter chaos of our day-to-day lives at home juggling work, dogs, toddlers and hormones."

But following its success, it was revealed in January that the pair would be letting the cameras back in to share more of their life unfiltered in another series for UKTV’s free-to-air entertainment channel W and streaming service UKTV Play, this time for six episodes.

Gorka, 33, and Gemma, 39, returned to filming a second series of Gemma and Gorka: Life Behind the Lens at the start of the year before its return to screens earlier this month, following the family months on from the arrival of their second child Thiago, last July.

While the third episode is set to air on Monday night (May 20), W shared a preview clip on their Instagram page in which Gemma could be seen acting as the waitress for the evening as she presented Gorka and their four-year-old daughter Mia with their dinner as they enjoyed a father-daughter date.

"I would never imagine doing this but it's so cute," Gorka is heard saying at the start of the clip. But he then wasn't impressed with the amount on his plate, laughing as he requested more potatoes from his fiancee before he and Mia tucked into their meal while chatting to one another. It is then when Mia made a request.

She asked her Papa: "When I'm in my pyjamas and we've finished the date, can I dance with you?" Strictly Come Dancing star Gorka was quick to respond, saying: "Of course I can!" He added: "You can dance with me every day," before they carried on with their dinner.

Gorka shared the clip to his own Instagram page as well as to his Instagram Story, alongside which he vowed: "I will always dance with you, Mia," adding a red heart emoji. And the clip left fans all emotional.
