Phil Spencer has been seen for the first time as he returned to work – three weeks after his parents’ tragic death.
The Channel 4 star, 53, was faced with heartache last month when his father Richard, 89, and mother Anne, 82, were killed during a crash.
The two were on their way to lunch when their car toppled off of a bridge on their Kent farm and into a river.

And now, Phil has headed back to work on Channel 4‘s hit show Location, Location, Location with co-host Kirstie Allsopp.
The crafty queen and property expert shared a video to her Instagram account on Tuesday (September 12) from the set of the Channel 4 programme.
She told fans: “So, we’re back at work filming Location, Location, Location and I didn’t quite know what my next post on Instagram should be, because my last post was about Phil’s mum and dad.
“And you all sent such lovely lovely messages and Phil was so grateful. But look, I’ve found him…”
Phil then appeared on screen and quipped: “Very grateful, and I haven’t put anything on Instagram either, but I do appreciate peoples’ lovely comments.”
In the caption, Kirstie penned: “He’s back at work, and was very, very touched by all your messages, I even managed to get him to say it on insta. Bless him.”
Fans soon rushed to the comments section to send their support, with one writing: “You are both such lovely humans! Love watching your show. Life has to carry on but your mum and dad will never be forgotten Phil.”
