Kym Marsh calls lookalike daughter Emilie her ‘best friend’ in sweet birthday tweet
The Coronation Street star celebrated her daughter’s 20th birthday with a loving tweet
KYM Marsh has called her lookalike daughter Emilie Cunliffe her "best friend" in a sweet message to mark her birthday.
The proud mum of four was clearly in the mood to celebrate as her “princess” turned 20.
The Coronation Street star posted a tweet with three photos of her daughter - who previously starred on The Voice and is a dead ringer for Kym, 41.
Kym wrote: “Happy birthday to my beautiful @EmilieCunliffe you make me so proud every day.
“I love you with all of my heart. My best friend, my princess, my world.”
Kym had Emelie in 1997 with ex David Cunliffe, who is also dad to her son David.
She went on to have a daughter, Polly, with Hollyoaks actor-turned-I'm A Celebrity star Jamie Lomas, now six.
The couple also had a son, Archie, who died moments after birth in 2010 after he was born 18 weeks early.
Earlier on Emilie's birthday, Kym had excitedly tweeted about Jamie’s journey on I’m A Celeb – and she revealed Polly was thrilled to see her dad do a challenge on the show.
Birthday girl Emilie was also supporting her former stepdad, on the show, tweeting: “Jamie to win”.
Kym previously told The Sun: "I've been watching every night have and I think he’s been doing very well, Polly is just ecstatic because it’s her Dad.”
The former Hear’say singer insists that she’s not worried about Jamie opening up in the jungle about their marriage breakdown.

She said: “I don’t think there’s anything to be worried about with Jamie discussing our relationship on screen, he's not the kind of person to be vocal on anything, plus I’ve got nothing to hide.
“I’ve known about this quite some time but I kept it from Polly and obviously when she found out she couldn’t stop talking about it. She kept on talking about it ‘My Dad is going to be in the jungle!’
Jamie will do very well but he doesn’t like rats though, so we’ll just have to wait and see.”
