Iolo Williams is back on our screens with his River Valleys show, but the presenter isn't the only naturalist in his family, with son Dewi following in the star's footsteps.
The duo have even hosted a show together, Iolo a Dewi: y tad a'r mab yn Zambia. In the programme, the pair headed out for safari where they observed several animals in their natural habitat. Although Iolo hasn't shared much about his son, last year, he revealed that himself and both of his sons were fans of Liverpool F.C., with the family seeing their beloved team play.
Speaking of his experience on hosting the show alongside his dad, Dewi said: "Thank you for all the support on 'Iolo a Dewi: y tad a'r mab yn Zambia', still on iplayer. Amazing experience filming and meeting some amazing people."

Presenting career
Iolo has been on our screens since the 90s, but the star has previously confessed that he never intended to enter the world of television, but it was because of Dewi that he did.
Speaking to Discover Wildlife in 2024, he confessed: "I never, ever wanted to be a presenter. I worked for the RSPB in Wales, and for four and a half years, it was the best job in the world – monitoring bird populations, advising big landowners, and investigating crimes.

He continued: "Then when I left the RSPB, the BBC and S4C offered me work. I turned them down initially as I really did not want to go into the media.
