The proud Liverpudlian stars are joined in the advert by Maya Jama, Chunkz and Central Cee. The touching festive advert is soundtracked by Wanna by Jamie XX and JD's UK & EU marketing director said the campaign aims to capture what's truly important about Christmas.

Chris Water said: "Our JD ‘Family’ campaign honours not just the families we're born into, but also those we choose along the way. At this time of year, the essence of family is woven into everyday life, and our campaign seeks to highlight the authentic connections and lived experiences of all forms of family.

"As the leading retailer in sports fashion and lifestyle, JD proudly showcases this year's incredible talent alongside their families, celebrating the bonds that truly matter in moments that represent them.”

Pimblett regularly shares updates from his happy family life on Instagram. Earlier this week, Paddy shared several pictures of himself enjoying his free time with his wife and two daughters. Several showed the whole family, including their dog, relaxing on the couch at home together.

An adorable video in the last slide of the post showed Betsy and Margot holding each other's hands while they sat in baby chairs. Paddy simply captioned the post “Family” with a love heart. His wife Laura commented with two love heart emojis. Meanwhile former Liverpool FC defender Sami Hyypia commented with an emoji of a smiling face with heart eyes.

Many fans of Paddy’s also commented on the video. Nick Peet said: “The video is so cute!” Jennifer Hedderick said: “Holding hands, the cutest!” Joanne added: "This is adorable! Holding hands, they truly are connected.” You can watch the full JD advert here
