Patsy Palmer’s daughter is following in her footsteps when it comes to pursuing the limelight, having landed a modelling contract.

Stunning Emilia Merkell – Patsy’s daughter with her husband Richard Merkell – is signed to Women Management Los Angeles, and there are a string of sensational shots of her on its site. With her huge eyes and notable pout, the budding model resembles her EastEnders and Celebrity Big Brother star mum despite having long dark hair instead of Patsy’s red waves.

Emilia, 23, also appears to have a career modelling swimwear. Various snaps on her Instagram show her flaunting her slender frame in skimpy bikinis as she soaks up the sun in LA, where she lives with her family.

The model has built up quite the fanbase, with 134,000 followers on Instagram. And she is inundated with gushing comments from admirers whenever she uploads one of her sizzling snaps.

Fans declared her “perfect” and “gorgeous” after one recent image which showed her leaning up against a wall in a green and black print bikini and with her hair damp from the water. “Your body is incredible,” said one fan, as another said Emilia was “flawless”.

“The most beautiful,” said another smitten follower. “Oh what a woman,” exclaimed someone else.

A few years back, Emilia told Flaunt she was also an aspiring filmmaker. She went on: “I grew up with a mum as an actress, and loved the whole world of it.

“Moving to LA was a huge change for me, but I wouldn’t ever want to be anywhere else. Although I will always have my English roots.”

Patsy is a mum of four. As well as Emilia, she shares son Fenton, 24, and son Bertie, 13, with her husband Richard. The Bianca actress is also mum to son Charley Palmer Rothwell, 33, who she shares with her ex, Alfie Rothwell.

The actress and her children used to live in the UK, but in 2014 she headed across the pond and is now based in the US. The flame-haired star was recently back for a stint as she moved into the Celebrity Big Brother house.

As she excited the house, Patsy said it had been a “great experiment”. “It just shows what we need now in the world, that we can all live together despite our differences,” she explained.
