A MODEL FAMILY
WE’LL BE BACK DURING THE BREAK... KIDS SPEND LOCKDOWN STARRING IN ADVERTS
ONE couple have found an ad-mirable way to keep their three young sons amused during lockdown... they are busy starring in TV commercials.
The demand for models all from one bubble has rocketed in the pandemic – and the Lammy family, from Coventry, are happy to be involved.
Mum Letitia Morgan and her partner Andre Lammy, both 32, have been inundated with offers to appear in ads along with their sons, Kyrelle, nine, Tyrae, five, and three-year-old Bryson.
Their CV boasts more than a dozen for top brands and organisations, including Ikea, Premier Inn, LinkedIn, H&M, Mini Cooper, Dunelm, the NSPCC, Forestry England and Disney.
‘We love working as a family,’ said Letitia, a veterinary nurse. ‘It’s just one big adventure, it doesn’t feel like work.
We are super-proud of what the boys have achieved. They have been in amazing campaigns and they are our little superstars.’
Even Andre’s mum Lorna, 58, has appeared with her grandsons. ‘There has been an undoubtable demand for families and single bubbles to film during lockdown,’ said Letitia. ‘It seemed natural to get my mother-in-law involved when jobs required a gran.’
Andre, a university co-ordinator, admitted he is ‘camera-shy’ and was reluctant to join in. ‘But when I am on set with them, it’s great fun,’ he said.
Kyrelle’s favourite job was for Ikea, filmed in Prague. ‘I got to go down collapsing stairs which turned into a slide. It was so much fun,’ he said.
