Taking to Instagram, she simply wrote: "For the Dads 🩵 Happy Father's Day 🩵." The short but sweet post had the comments turned off.
The two black and white photos depicted Georgia laughing with her own father as the first snap, and the second of her husband Danny, 39, hugging their son, Cooper.
Just last month it seems as if wife Georgia has snubbed him AGAIN, as it's revealed the couple haven't been seen together in a month.
McFly star Danny, 39, has been trying to move on from the fall out from his "drunken kiss" with Maura Higgins, 34, at the Brit Awards.
In another Instagram post, Georgia - who briefly moved out of the family home following the kiss scandal - spoke about her "life lately"
However, she failed to mention her husband of over ten years in the post.
In Georgia's Instagram update, she shared a series of recent photos with the couple's son Cooper, 6, but Danny was nowhere to be seen.
She captioned the post with: "Life lately… Friends, family, filming, fresh air and fun… lots of lovely fun."
Sources have also claimed that despite trying to move on with the lives, Danny and Georgia are like "passing ships in the night" at home.
A source told the MailOnline: 'Danny and Georgia have been trying to navigate a very difficult time in their marriage and for the best part they have been taking each day as it comes.
"They may be living under the same roof, but they barely see each other and right now are like passing ships.
"Danny is preparing for his summer gigs with McFly, and Georgia has been attending influencer events and collaborating with brands, all while looking after son, Cooper, who regularly features on her Instagram profile.
"But when they're not working, Danny is out on his motorbike or exercising in the gym, and Georgia is either on her own or spending time with family and girlfriends.
"They haven't actually been publicly seen together for six weeks and behind the scenes, their relationship is anything but normal."
This isn't the first time that Georgia has snubbed Danny.
Since the kiss she has shared several updates on "family life" without him.
THE KISS FALL OUT
Danny and his wife Georgia are now trying to move on with their lives following the fall out.
Everything kicked off last month when Danny was caught on camera sharing a kiss with his I'm A Celeb co-star Maura.
They were spotted having a brief smooch at a Brit Awards after party at the beginning of the month.
Danny issued a public apology to Georgia and his family, saying: 'I love them so much.'
In an Instagram Stories post, he wrote: "Sorry it's taken me a while to post this but I've taken some time out to be with those closest to me.

Love Island: Meg clashes with new bombshell Malisha as viewers predict the epic feud will only get more explosive

Megan Moore didn't hold back as tensions exploded in the Love Island villa and she branded new bombshell Malisha 'boring' in a fiery kitchen showdown. The drama unfolded just hours after the arrival of three new girls Malisha, Yasmin and Emily, who turned up the heat on Friday night and wasted no time cracking on with the boys during a cheeky drinks date outside the villa. Unbeknownst to the boys, the original girls had been secretly watching the entire encounter unfold on a giant screen back home. And it didn't go down well, especially with Meg who is coupled up with Dejon. As the night went on, Dejon and Malisha continued their chat on the sofas in the garden whilst a fuming Meg stood nearby in the kitchen. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. She told some of the other Islanders: 'I said where do you go out partying? He said Tape. I said shock, of course you're a Tape boy in Mayfair. What does she do? F*****g stand in Mayfair and go Tape every weekend? Boring!' As Malisha, 24, a teaching assistant from Broxbourne, Hertfordshire, was in earshot, she heard her name being mentioned and asked Meg to repeat what she had said, which she did - leaving out the boring part and adding: 'I don't think there's anything wrong with that, do you?' Malisha confronted Meg directly about her harsh words. But instead of backing down or offering an explanation, Meg coolly replied: 'I'll say it with my chest'. Turning to the others in the kitchen Meg said under her breath: 'She needs to pipe down. That girl has wound me up. She's f***ing wound me up.' Viewers took to X to slam Meg's reaction writing: 'Meg was defo kicked out of Tape once because why she so vex? #loveisland' 'Megan needs to chill man, it's only been 2mins on #loveisland #LoveIslandUK' 'I'll say it with my chest Meg needs to chill out #LoveIsland' 'I'd say it with my chest' you definitely didn't Meg babes you made a whole new story up when she confronted you #Loveisland' She told some of the other Islanders: 'I said where do you go out partying? He said Tape. I said shock, of course you're a TaPe boy in Mayfair. What does she do? F*****g stand in Mayfair and go Tape every weekend? Boring!' Viewers took to X with some slamming Meg's reaction, whilst others begged for producers to keep the girls in for the 'drama' However some viewers begged for producers to keep the girls in for the 'drama' saying: 'I'm here for the drama please. Meg can stay, Malisha can stay too. #loveisland' 'I don't know how they're gonna do it but keep both Meg and malisha in this villa #LoveIsland' 'Obsessed with Meg saying 'I say it with my chest' and then proceeding to not say what she said' 'Malisha and Meg rivalry is gonna be something else #LoveIsland' Despite the fiery exchange, Meg and Malisha appeared to bury the hatchet the following morning, sharing a tense truce and moving on as if the spat never happened. But the peace was short-lived. Earlier, Dejon had confided in the boys while getting ready, saying: 'If Meg's still bringing that same energy, then I'm done…' While Meg had planned to patch things up with Dejon herself, Malisha got in there first and asked him for a private word in the Hideaway. Not wanting to send the wrong message, Dejon turned her down and suggested they head to the Terrace instead. Once there, Malisha told him bluntly: 'You move like you're closed off.' Meg and Dejob appeared to patch things up adfter she admitted that she had overreacted and he reassured her she was still his number one But Meg, watching from the garden, wasn't about to let things slide and decided to head up to the terrace so she could hear their private conversation better. Justifying her actions to the other girls she said: 'I need to see what they're saying, I need to know what energy he's giving off'. In a shady twist worthy of reality TV gold, Meg was later seen lurking behind the terrace door, secretly listening in on Dejon and Malisha. As the pair were deep in conversation on the balcony Meg suddenly appeared, cutting their chat short.

Laura Anderson takes huge swipe at Gary Lucy on Father's Day

Former Love Island star Laura Anderson has hit out at her ex boyfriend Gary Lucy as she cheers to 'single mums' on Fathers Day and says she feels bad for her daughter Former Love Island star Laura Anderson has taken a swipe at her ex-boyfriend Gary Lucy on Father's Day as she told her social media followers that she feels bad for her 2-year-old daughter Bonnie. Laura and Gary started dating after they both appeared on Channel 4 's Celebs Go Dating in 2022 and welcomed their daughter together in 2023. Despite them splitting up while Laura was pregnant, the couple attempted reconciliation ahead of the birth of their daughter, Bonnie, in September 2023. They were seen together in Scotland, and Gary was present during the labour and delivery, however, it wasn't meant to be, and they split again. ‌ Laura took to social media on Father's Day wearing a pink top and her hair styled in waves as she took a dig at her daughter's dad. Posing with a slight smile and her thumb up, Laura wrote: "Cheers to the single mums that feel sh*t for their kids on Father's Day.' ‌ Gary revealed their split to The Sun in February 2023 when Laura was pregnant. He said: "I love Laura, but we are no longer together. My main drive as always, is to work together to co-parent our child. I look forward to the arrival of the new baby." In 2024, Laura began a new relationship with footballer Clark Robertson, whom she had reportedly known for several years. They went Instagram official in October 2024 and recently moved in together. Laura keeps her followers updated on her life as a mum on Instagram and recently received backlash for going on a romantic getaway with her new boyfriend, without her daughter. After sharing a bunch of loved-up snaps online, Laura swiftly hit back at the nasty online trolls who tried to guilt-trip her about her picture-perfect getaway. Laura told her followers: 'Just to clarify, I do not feel guilty at all for holidaying without my child. Neither should you! Bonnie and I have holidayed together a lot, and it's pretty obvious I'm a lone parent and look after her myself. l 100% deserve as many breaks as I see fit." ‌ She said: 'I truly worry about the children of the women judging online and spreading hate. Spend your time reading your child a book instead of trolling me.' The former Love Island star added: 'I'm also not afraid to say I know l am an unbelievable mother, so your trolling doesn't affect me. It just makes me sad that my daughter is growing up in a world like this. I truly hope you heal.' A source claimed to OK! that the online backlash has been deeply unpleasant for the mum, but she's doing her best not to let it get under her skin. They said 'Laura doesn't feel she's done anything wrong – apart from having a good time on holiday with her boyfriend, and sharing her posts, like many of us do." 'She adores her daughter and is absolutely devoted to her. It's horrible for her to read these comments – but she's her own woman, she won't let it stop her living her life or let it destroy her happiness.'

Pile Up: World's Biggest Crash Test review – this destructive motoring experiment is a literal TV disaster

Hundreds of people die on British roads every year, with tens of thousands injured – and the multi-vehicle motorway crash is the most terrifyingly lethal way a car journey can go wrong. But the good news is, reality TV is on the case. Welcome to the car-crash telly that is Pile Up: World's Biggest Crash Test, a programme that, suitably enough, hurls several different documentary genres together with messy results. The problem that needs addressing is this. Experts studying road safety have long been able to propel cars into one other under laboratory conditions, but controlled tests lack the crucial element of flawed humans with unpredictable reactions; actual crashes obviously do involve fickle drivers, but we don't know when they'll happen, so nobody's there to capture high-quality footage from every angle. The solution, years in the making and dreamed up by top smash boffin Prof James Brighton of Cranfield University, is a grand experiment that luckily lends itself to light-factual television. Four ordinary motorists are invited to attend a Scottish airstrip that has been converted to a lifesize mockup of a stretch of motorway. They are told they're to take part in a study of driving habits. What they're not told is that Brighton has arranged for an articulated lorry to drive sideways across all four lanes without warning, guaranteeing that the guinea pigs will be involved in a pile-up and allowing full scrutiny of their split-second attempts to avoid disaster. Even the lawless free-for-all that is reality TV in 2025 wouldn't lure people into a probably-fatal car crash under false pretences, though, so all the vehicles have been rigged up to be driven remotely. The stooges sit in static cars a couple of hundred metres away, with their steering, accelerating and braking simulated in real time on a wraparound video screen. The problem with this is that it surely isn't an accurate representation of how these people would react in real life. They can't feel the acceleration when they press the pedal and aren't burdened with the fear of serious injury. Perhaps to distract from this, or just to fill the inexplicably epic two-hour slot Channel 4 has given Pile Up, the programme throws all manner of other stuff at us. It leans into the reality-show element heavily, introducing us to its four disparate volunteers – a carefree 19-year-old woman, a man in his 20s who is a self-confessed boy racer, a nervous grandmother, and a guy who, er, doesn't really have any pertinent foibles but seems nice – by filming them driving in everyday life, packing to leave for Scotland, meeting one other, being allocated a car, comparing notes after their test drives, and so on. Everyone's encouraged to play up to their personality type, apart from the chap who doesn't have one, and they're soon caricaturing themselves happily. If that doesn't entertain you, swathes of the programme are taken up with sensational dashcam footage of real incidents, of the kind normally featured in cheap documentaries on obscure satellite channels that are called something like Britain's Worst Drivers Volume 12: B-Road Bedlam. Such shows marry up the barrage of clips with a torrent of facts, and Pile Up is no different: approximately 17% of the voiceover here is made up of intimidating statistics about speed limits and seatbelts. When the experiment does finally take place, it's rigged with false jeopardy. Professional crash-scene investigators are invited to analyse the pile-up post hoc, without access to the slow-motion video and 3D modelling that everyone else is looking at, as a contrived test of their skills. Plus, it's suggested that the test is not just groundbreaking, but controversial: 'A lot of naysayers [said] this was never going to work,' says one of Brighton's triumphant colleagues, after it's all over. A lot of naysayers? Really? Sadly, the unlikely claim that the scientific crash-test community is a cesspit of cynical haters is left unexplored, but if they do exist, these naysayers may have had a point, since none of the most interesting conclusions end up deriving from the way the human drivers responded, which was meant to be what made the stunt unique. The thing is, though, none of this programme's manifest snags really matter. The experiment may not have worked on its own terms, but the sense of dread when the innocent drivers are unknowingly approaching the hazard is real, as is their emotional reaction when they see the state their cars are left in. If people at home are disturbed enough to slow down and pay more attention next time they're on a motorway, lives will be saved. Pile Up does get to somewhere worthwhile in the end, even if it takes a circuitous route. Pile Up: World's Biggest Crash Test is on Channel 4 now
