In one sweet snap, Helen beamed for the camera as her youngest child, 12-month-old son Louis played in the background.  

Helen - who is also on holiday with her son Ernie, three, and husband Richie Myler - captioned the image: Beach baby..... I am so much like my Dad in most things apart from when it comes to the beach. He HATES sand, me, I LOVE it. 

'Very grateful for this vacay time with my boys and my folks. It’s been a few years since Mum and I had an annual trip away but I am pretty keen on bringing back this tradition. #family #grandparents #babies #boys #beach #makingmemories'
