Shane Warne’s youngest child, Summer, has shared an emotional tribute dedicated to her late father.

The 20-year-old posted a picture of her dad holding their family dog with three white hearts above his head, as well as a snap of herself, her brother Jackson and her sister Brooke as children with Shane.

“Missing you so much,” Summer captioned the Instagram Story along with a white dove carrying an olive branch emoji.

Summer’s post honouring her dad coincided with the TV WEEK Logie Awards In Memoriam segment that recognised the late cricketing great’s sport commentating career.

This isn’t the first time the youngest Warne has shared a tribute to her dad on social media.

In April, a month after Shane’s passing, Summer shared two pictures, the first featuring him giving her a piggyback while on holiday, and the second of them hugging in a pool.

“Miss your smiley face every day Dad ❤️,” she wrote alongside the post.

“Missing you,” wrote Summer.

In the aftermath of Shane’s tragic death from a heart attack while on holiday in Thailand, Summer shared a statement revealing a few precious moments of them “jamming” to Summer Of ’69 and (I’ve Had) The Time Of My Life, songs that never failed to make her dad smile.

“Talking about how much you loved that song and seeing your smile light up the whole room while we danced and couldn’t stop laughing at each other. God you made me laugh dad,” she wrote.

“Little did I know that was the last time I would ever see you dad. I’d do anything to hear that laugh again, anything to hear your voice, anything to have one of your cuddles, anything to be with you again just one last time.”

“I took our time for granted dad and I would do anything to have more time with you on this earth.”

Summer went on to say that she wished she could have been with her father in his final moments to tell him “everything was going to be okay”, adding that he will live on in her heart for the rest of her live.

“I took our time for granted dad and I would do anything to have more time with you on this earth. Our time was robbed and I wish you would come back to me,” she said.
