‘He actually said to us “how long have I got it for”‘, said Kelvin.
The post garnered several comments from Kelvin’s fans and showbiz pals, including his former co-star Adam Thomas, who said: ‘That’s what life’s about’.
Kelvin has a close relationship with father Warren, who was seen breaking down in tears when the TV star won Strictly in 2019.
The TV personality is a massive petrolhead who has taken part in motor racing championships against racing driver Jenson Button.
Last month the former soap star was branded ‘selfish’ by a road safety charity prodding his wife while she was at the wheel, during a family day out.

Kelvin also playfully jabbed Liz with the comedy glove while walking down the street – where they were joined by their daughter Marnie.
Road safety charity, Brake, told the Sun: ‘Even a moment’s distraction from the road ahead can result in catastrophe.
‘Passengers must do all they can to allow a driver’s concentration to remain on the road and certainly never purposefully cause a distraction.
‘Such behaviour, as shown in this video, is selfish and dangerous.’
MailOnline contacted representatives for comment at the time.
Kelvin was crowned series champion with Oti Mabuse in 2019, after the screen star stepped in at the last minute to replace injured Jamie Laing.
Kelvin and Liz are childhood sweethearts who grew up down the road from one another in Royton, Lancashire, and shared their first kiss at just eight years old. However they officially got together two years after she finished university.
They were engaged in 2015, after Kelvin proposed on the beach during a romantic trip to Wales.
