Michelle Owen, a sports presenter, captured a touching moment when her son Zac set off for his first day of school. Rather than a typical first-day-of-school photo, Owen shared an image that radiated creativity and heartwarming sentiment. In the picture, Zac walks out the door in his school uniform, but it’s his action figures—Hulk, Spiderman, Thor, and others—who take the spotlight. Lined with their arms raised, the toys appear to be waving him off on his new adventure, a playful nod to the famous Toy Story farewell scenes. The thoughtful setup, complete with a small board marking the occasion, resonated with many after Owen posted it on Instagram, where it quickly went viral. Her caption, “Our little superhero has started school,” summed up the sweet and symbolic nature of the milestone.

Beyond Zac’s big day, Owen revealed that the family had been through an emotional few months. Just before Zac’s school adventure, he became a big brother, after Owen and her husband, Adam Venton, welcomed their second child. The pregnancy was far from easy, with complications that forced Owen to step away from TV. Despite the challenges, the family is now happily adjusting to their new dynamic, and Zac has embraced his role as a big brother. Owen expressed her joy in seeing Zac’s excitement, while also sharing the relief of having her family safely at home after a difficult journey. Her updates on social media have offered a glimpse into their life, showcasing both the trials and the joys of this new chapter.
