Ant Anstead shared an Instagram throwback photo on Father’s Day

On June 19, Ant Anstead shared an Instagram post celebrating Father’s Day. The English TV presenter has three children: a daughter named Amelia and a son named Archie from his marriage to Louise Storey, and a son named Hudson from his marriage to HGTV star Christina Haack

Anstead posted a photo of what appeared to be his father with four children, dining outside on folding chairs. 

“Happy Father’s Day to all the great dads out there!” the former police constable wrote in the caption. “And to my dad who did so much for us and wore the worlds tightest shorts at the same time! Thank you dad ❤️”

Fans think Ant Anstead looks identical to Hudson, his 2-year-old son with Christina Haack, in his Father’s Day Instagram post

Ant Anstead’s fans loved his Father’s Day post, and they couldn’t believe how much one little boy in his Instagram throwback photo looked like the English TV presenter’s youngest son. They are sharing their opinions in the comments section of his post.

“Hudson is sitting next to your dad! LOL,” wrote one fan, while another commented, “Holy Guacamole!!! That’s Hudson sitting beside your Dad!!!! Incredible photo 📷 ❤️”

Many fans pointed out that one child in the photo particularly resembled Anstead’s son. “Are you the little one next to him? If so Hudson is your twin,” wrote one fan, while another said, “That little guy in the left hand corner looks like Hudson. Is that you?”

And one fan wished the father of three a happy holiday by writing, “Happy Father’s Day, Ant!! OMG, Hudson looks just like you!!! 😮😍”

Little is known about Anstead’s family, as the Wheeler Dealers star keeps his personal life relatively private. But according to Healthy Celeb, Anstead “has an older brother, a younger brother, and a younger sister.” So, the child on the left most fans referred to is likely his younger brother, while Antead is the boy in the middle of the photograph wearing blue stripes. Still, the family resemblance is undeniable.
