TV presenter and adventurer Ben Fogle delighted fans on Tuesday when he shared a carousel of photos from his latest family holiday.
Ben and his brood jetted off to sunny Morocco where they stayed at a luxurious ocean retreat located on the Atlantic coast in the village of Oualidia.
Sharing a glimpse inside their getaway, the father-of-four, 51, uploaded a trio of sun-drenched photos that showed the presenter beaming alongside his wife Marina. Looking radiant and relaxed, Ben had one arm placed around Marina’s shoulder as they posed beside a pool of water flanked by date trees.

She slipped on a chocolate-brown jacket for added warmth and accessorised with some oversized sunglasses.
In his caption, the Castaway star penned: “Loved our family trip to Morocco. Always one of my favourite places to visit @scottdunn_travel @lasultanaoualidiaofficiel #presstrip.”
Ben and Marina’s two children

The duo tend to keep their children out of the spotlight, only occasionally sharing photos on social media. “Fatherhood is the best thing that’s ever happened to me,” Ben told Metro in 2019.
“My son’s like me in that he loves the outdoors, whether it’s in the sunshine or rain, but he doesn’t have the shyness I suffered from as a child.
“My daughter is more like my wife as she’s relaxed and chilled but definitely knows what she wants,” he continued.
Ben and Marina’s love story
The couple crossed paths by chance while walking their dogs in Hyde Park. Of their initial encounter, Marina previously told Luxury London in 2019: “I grew up in South Kensington and I met Ben in Hyde Park.”

Ben and Marina went on to wed in 2006 in a quaint Portuguese village.
