Tamara Ecclestone officially gave her daughter Fifi the most exciting send off as the youngster went back to school this week.
Like many other parents across the country, Tamara, 38, and husband Jay Rutland, 41, were no doubt emotional as they prepared to pack off their eldest daughter to start the new school year.
Fifi, eight, had her first day back on Tuesday, with her parents sharing photos of her dressed up in her school uniform once again.
The youngster – full name Sophia – looked pleased as punch to be returning to the classroom and reuniting with her school friends, as she smiled widely for the camera.
However, the most eye-catching part of the photos was the huge party display Fifi was treated to, with five huge crayons erected in their family room as streams of balloons spilled out of each one in their individual colours.
Fifi stood proudly amongst the makeshift wonderland with a red balloon and a sign reading ‘Fifi goes back to school’ behind her. She also posed on the steps of the family’s £170million west London mansion holding a sign that said: ‘Fifi’s first day in J4 07.09.22.’
In her Instagram stories, Tamara revealed the special cake she had made for her daughter’s big day as she entered a new junior year.
The youngster’s dad Jay shared the same photos and wrote: ‘And we’re back….❤️’
Tamara and Jay, who married in 2013, have enjoyed a whirlwind summer with their travels including Saint Tropez and Gstaad, Switzerland, the latter of which is one of their primary bases throughout the year.
The couple welcomed their second child, daughter Serena, in September 2021 and announced her arrival with cute photos of Fifi holding her baby sister.
In an Instagram post, Tamara said: ‘Three weeks ago you completed us baby Serena. Watching the love Fifi has for her baby sister makes me happier and prouder than I could of ever dreamed of.’
Earlier this summer, the daughter of ex-Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone opened up about the infamous burglary that took place at her Kensington home in 2019, with the thieves making off with £25million worth of jewellery, cash and gems.
Tamara, who was not home at the time of the burglary, described the ordeal as ‘traumatic’ and offered a £6m reward for the recovery of her belongings.
