FEARNE Cotton shared rare photos of her 18-year-old stepson Arthur in an emotional Instagram tribute as he leaves home for University.
Arthur is Fearne’s husband Jesse Woods’ oldest child, who he shares with ex-wife Tilly.
Taking to her social media today, 39-year-old Fearne shared two photos to show off the teen’s growth spurt.
The first snap sees the star with her arm around the boy, who comes just above her shoulder, with the blonde beauty looking chic in a leopard print faux fur coat while he wears a beanie.
In the second pic, which is also taken from behind, Fearne is looking back at the camera with a shocked look on her face while Arthur towers above her.
The DJ captioned the post: “This chap is off to uni today and I couldn’t be more proud.
“Cool, calm and collected as always as he starts a whole new chapter of life.
“Swipe to see the most rapid growth spurt known to man. My destiny being to end up as the shortest member of our family within the next decade.
“Good luck Arthur my lovely step son! You’ve got this! #offtouni”.
Jesse, who is the son of Rolling Stones’ rocker Ronnie Wood, also posted a sweet message to his son.
He paired a throwback photo of Arthur as a little boy with a more recent snap – reflecting on how fast he grew up in the caption.
