The family, which also features Andy and Nicola’s daughter Hollie, nine, also posed for some appropriately-sharp images in their new looks.
Andy has been holed up in lockdown with his family after filming for Coronation Street was suspended due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Both Corrie and its ITV rival Emmerdale scaled back their weekly episodes to try and ration those that had already been filmed before the lockdown.
Bosses revealed earlier this month they had enough episodes to remain on the air until June, having cut for six episodes a week to just three.
ITV’s Kevin Lygo confirmed that the soap will be ‘adapting’ its pre-written scripts to factor in the COVID-19 crisis, he said: ‘They’re being incredibly inventive and creative about re-jigging storylines.
‘Obviously lots of scripts were written for this period of filming, but they’re adapting some. I think we’ve got to accept there’ll be more “two people talking in a room” type stuff.’
While Broadcast magazine claimed that the ITV soap could be making amendments to sets in a bid to adhere to social distancing with ‘one-way systems’ and ‘perspex screens’ during editing.
Coronation Street continues on Monday at 7:30pm on ITV.
