How time flies! Becky Adlington's little girl Summer is two years old. The retired Olympic swimmer took to Instagram last week to mark her daughter's birthday, revealing details of how the family celebrated. Becky, who shares Summer with her ex-husband Harry Needs, posted the sweetest message to her "beautiful girl".

"I know she can't exactly read this post but I can't believe my daughter Summer is 2 today," Becky told fans. "Having a baby of course is life changing but Summer has changed me as a person so much. She brings out the best in me, she makes me smile every single day. She fills my life with love and happiness. I'm so proud to be her mummy. She has such a brilliant personality and I love getting to know her everyday. I can't wait to continue growing with her. Happy 2nd Birthday to my beautiful girl."
