Last night, Zoe's daughter Nelly, 14, stepped out with her father Norman AKA Fatboy Slim.

Nelly – who's parents were married from 1999 to 2020 – is rarely seen at public events, but looked happy to be out with dad at a showbiz bash.

The pair were spotted mingling with other celebrities a the F1 75 Live at The O2 Arena.

Posing on the red carpet, Norman looked every inch the proud father as he put a protective arm around his daughter.

RADIO RETURN

The outing came just hours after Zoe announced her radio return.

The popular presenter bid an emotional farewell to Radio 2 at the end of last year.

But she has now revealed she is set to head back to airwaves to host a new weekly show.

Starting in May, Zoe will be presenting her own Saturday show from 1pm until 3pm.

NEW OUTLOOK ON LIFE

The announcement comes just days after it was revealed that since ditching the hustle and bustle of London, the mum-of-two has been enjoying a more cosy home life in Sussex.

The popular presenter – who was earning almost £1million a year from her Radio 2 gig – has reportedly been "working at a local cafe" with her ex-husband.

Spilling the tea, their son Woody told the MailOnline: "In the last five years, it's been funny watching my parents take up gardening both of them.

"These crazy party people I grew up with are now gardening, making puzzles and working in the local café.

"It's very funny to see that transitional period, just as I'm kind of leaving the nest and now at the start of something big for me in music."

DJ and record producer Norman owns the Big Beach Cafe in Hove and is often seen working there wearing a name badge reading: "Norm."
