Ant McPartlin has finally broken his silence on social media and it was for the best reason.
It was his best friend Dec's birthday - and the picture Ant posted was brilliant.
The 42-year-old took to Twitter to wish his showbiz other half a happy birthday, ''happy birthday from the big one to the little one! A," alongside a tears of joy emoji.
Happy Birthday from the big one to the little one!

The picture showed Dec on holiday in Spain, posing behind a flamenco dress to celebrate his 43rd birthday.
Ant's followers were quick to respond to the funny post, with many of them complimenting Ant on his choice of photo.
One wrote, "this is the best picture I've ever seen. It's being saved to my phone and it's gonna be my phone background.''
Another said, "great pic happy birthday Dec. First birthday as a Daddy too. Xx."
The star has become a dad this month when his wife Ali Astall gave birth to their first child.
The couple welcomed baby daughter Isla Elizabeth Anne, with Dec announcing the news on Instagram.
He uploaded a picture of a newborn babies hand holding onto Dec's finger.
He wrote, ''Ali and I are thrilled to announce the arrival of our baby girl, Isla Elizabeth Anne, who was born just after 9 o’clock this morning. Mother and daughter both doing well, Dad is head over heels! D x."
Ant, who is celebrating six months of being sober, will not be joining Dec on this years I'm A Celebrity, but we are hoping he takes care of himself and is back on our screens with his sidekick soon.
