Congratulations! Sheridan Smith shared a series of adorable snaps and gushed about her son Billy as she celebrated his third birthday on Instagram on Wednesday

In one photo, the star can be seen gazing adoringly at her son as he sings into a microphone – proving he’s just like his famous mother.

Looking radiant in an instant, Sheridan opted for a white sweater, black pants and stylish white sunglasses.

In another photo taken just days after he was born, Sheridan cuddles up to Billy on the couch after breastfeeding him.

This time around, the star appears makeup-free with her locks tied up in a bun.

A beaming Billy also grins from ear to ear as he sits down to unwrap his birthday presents.

The actress – currently starring in Shirley Valentine’s hit West End production – welcomed her son in May 2020, with ex-fiance Jamie Horn.

She announced her divorce from Jamie in July 2021 after nearly three years together.

And on Sunday, Sheridan shared an inside look at her son Billy’s epic third birthday celebration — complete with a winner’s podium, ball pits, and race-themed chocolates.
