Phoebe, who Tess shares with husband Vernon Kay, opted for a black long-sleeved top along with a matching scarf and leather trousers.
The pair went shopping before they grabbed a coffee and then strolled by houses in the trendy neighbourhood with Tess appearing to take some snaps of the homes on her phone
Tess and Vernon, who are also parents to daughter Amber, 14, married in September 2003.
Since turning 18 last year she has started creeping into the public eye, making her red carpet debut alongside her father at the John Wick Chapter 4 premiere last March.
While TV presenter Vernon was on hand to support his daughter, he previously revealed that he and Tess insist his children don’t live off their fame and must form ‘their own careers.’
It’s an important factor for the celebrity duo, who both fell into fame after being scouted as models and then turning to television.
Speaking to MailOnline in 2022, Vernon said he and his wife believe it’s important for their offspring ‘to find themselves’ and not be given their ‘life on a plate’, crediting the pair’s Northern backgrounds for shaping their parenting beliefs.
Vernon said: ‘We let them be independent when it comes to them and their futures because it’s important that you allow them to find themselves, which is character building and personality development.

Phoebe also wore a pair of grey and white trainers and carried a black handbag
‘Sometimes I think that the old silver spoon and life on a plate in front of them… I think that’s quite contradictory to how you want them to be.
‘Tess and I grew up in hearty, wholesome Northern families and that’s a huge trait that helped us in our personal development and I think that’s really important.’
He added: ‘I don’t disagree with anyone that does that by helping their kids, which is great, but I just think sometimes for us, personally, it’s whatever they’re into, they can go and discover themselves.’
Tess is of the same thinking as her husband, telling MailOnline in 2021 how she kept her children ‘grounded’ against the trappings of fame and raises them with ‘morals, respect and a work ethic.’
The Strictly host revealed that Phoebe didn’t realise her mum worked on TV until she was seven years old as she and Vernon worked to keep their family shielded from the limelight.
Tess admitted ‘it has never been about us at home’ when talking about the importance of keeping her career separate from motherhood.

Phoebe along with sister Amber, 14, (right) has enjoyed a childhood out of the spotlight. Yet since turning 18 last year she has started creeping into the public eye
She explained: ‘They are so grounded they know the value of everything. It is everything for us.
‘They have good morals and respect others. It’s everything. They build their self-esteem via you. It is so important to us to keep them grounded.
‘It has never been about us at home – it is about them and their lives and us at a family. Phoebe didn’t even know I worked on TV until she was about seven!
She had no idea until she saw me once and said “there’s my mum!” She just thought I went to work on a Saturday because to them it is work.
‘Of course they thoroughly enjoy it and they loved watching their dad on I’m A Celeb, they love Strictly – but it is part of what we do and it doesn’t define who we are to them. We’re just mum and dad.
‘It’s really important for me that I don’t take away my children’s work ethic and their chance to find their own role in life by overshadowing them with your own.
‘It is important they learn to find their own way. It is not about us and ego has no place in our house. They are good, hard-working girls and we’re really proud of them. They’re growing up!’
