The youngest pictured was baby Lua at 20 months, who is the daughter of Michael’s son Cameron, 40.

Turning to his father, Michael said: “I know, no son of yours is celebrating his 50th anniversary in the business, it means so much to me dad that you’re here today.

“I thank you for your advice, your inspiration and I’ll say it simply with all my heart, I’m so proud to be your son.”
