Families have begun to be reunited as the lockdown restrictions continue to be eased, but not everyone may be able to see their parents yet.

Some may be vulnerable or shielding due to medical conditions, while others may be carrying out essential work, and that could make this Father’s Day particularly tough for some families this year.

We want to continue to help bring readers together during the coronavirus pandemic and are pleased to be able to publish these messages of love and support we have received:

Happy Fathers Day to the best daddy and fiance ever. We Love you. Love Sarah, Louis, Freddie and Maisie x
