Katie Piper is absolutely besotted with her and fiancé James Sutton’s little girl, Belle Elizabeth.

But, as a busy working mum, she often has to leave early in the morning before her daughter is awake - and sometimes comes home when she’s already been tucked up in bed.

"I sit downstairs in the evening and just want to go upstairs, wake her up and hear her little laugh!”

And, like so many others in her position, Katie has admitted that she sometimes finds this difficult.

She wrote on Instagram: “Sometimes I have to leave for work before my daughter is awake and get home when she is in bed.

“On those days, I sit downstairs in the evening and just want to go upstairs, wake her up and hear her little laugh!”

The TV presenter, writer and charity campaigner added: “Funny how you can miss someone who is in the same house as you.”

Her message came alongside a sweet picture quote, which read: “Having my baby fall asleep in my arms takes away all of my worries and stresses.

“A sense of complete and total peace comes over me.”

The inspiring mum-of-one has been opening up about motherhood a lot recently.

Last week, she left plenty of her followers in tears when she shared an emotional post on the social networking site, revealing that she had recently discovered that baby Belle had grown up.

She said at the time: “Today my baby became a little girl. The change has been coming for a while, even if I didn't quite realize it. Her movements shifting slowly. A difference in her stance, her face, her gait.

“I didn't see it happen even though I saw it happen, every second of it. That's the way it always is, isn't it?”

She finished: “And so I want to hold her in my arms a little longer today, because already my baby is gone. Already there is a little girl in her place.

And one day not too far in the future there will be an older girl in her place, and then a teenager, and then a young lady.

“And so I keep holding her: heavy on my shoulder, the weight of her substantial, in her nursery where time stands still.”
