To accompany the photo, Tamara penned: ‘Happy Fathers Day to the best Daddy to Fifi the wrestler the swimmer and football player. We love you @jayrutland.’

The star also shared a photo alongside Bernie, 89, who is soon to be a father for the fourth time, and wrote: ‘Happy Fathers Day to the best Dad and Grandad the best example of always being fair and kind and loving us unconditionally. 

‘You have always been here for us all and never let us down. Thank you for being you.’

It was recently revealed that Bernie and his wife Fabiana Flosi, 44, are expecting their first child together.

Earlier this month, the star hit out at her critics after being slammed for taking her family to Croatia amid the coronavirus pandemic. 

The heiress arrived in her mother’s native country alongside her husband, daughter her sister Petra, 31, Petra’s fiancé Sam Palmer and her four children.

Since the family were seen luxuriating on the sisters’ father Bernie’s £28m yacht, Tamara’s social media has seen a surge of criticism – leading to her staunch defence in a lengthy Instagram post.

Tamara, Jay and Sophia have been joined by Petra, Sam, Petra’s daughter Lavinia, seven, and twin boys Andrew and James, five, who she shares with her ex-husband James Stunt, and her and Sam’s newborn daughter.

The duo were lucky enough to have their father’s yacht at their disposal. The 176ft yacht, which boasts six cabins, is named Petara – after Bernie’s daughters – with her name being an amalgamation of the Petra and Tamara’s name. 

It appears Tamara has been met with wrongly-placed criticism for taking Sophia out of school, endangering the public – leading to her clarification.

Tamara penned a lengthy caption reading: ‘Clearly this virus hasn’t changed some people for the better which is a bit of a shame. For those of you that are confused or just bitter. I didn’t leave the house at all during lockdown…

‘I didn’t even go to the park or exercise. I am half-Croatian so decided it would be best, safest to come here, which is not forbidden and I am now following the rules in Croatia. As for the home school questions, a return to school was option…  

‘We chose to continue to home school Fifi she is doing better than ever and has gone up two reading bands. If I am not mistaken no on is obliged to follow me so you know what to do.’

Last month, Krunoslav Capak, the director of Croatia’s Institute of Public Health, said there would be ‘no bans, just precautions’ on the country’s beaches, after Croatia reported 103 deaths overall as of last week. 

He said: ‘I will certainly go to the beach. I can’t wait. Lifeguards, local authorities and hoteliers will have to make sure that sun beds and towels are not too close together because the virus will still be present.’ 

The day before their arrival in Croatia, Sam shared a selfie with Petra from LA, on which they appeared to be on a runway.

Meanwhile, Tamara shared videos of her beloved Sophia from the garden on their lavish London home.
