Hero's welcome: Samantha greets her husband David Cameron with a big kiss and hug and quickly closes the front doorIt was just what a sleep-deprived David Cameron needed after a frantic day of horse-trading.
As he returned to his London home yesterday afternoon, the Tory leader was greeted by his smiling wife Samantha who reached up to plant a kiss on his cheek.
Mr Cameron had barely stepped through the door before he was caught in a passionate embrace by his wife, who is five months pregnant.
The moment was caught on camera by the scrum of photographers who have been camped outside the door.
Mr Cameron had spent the day competing for the support of the Liberal Democrats in a bid to form a coalition government.
Samantha, 39, returned to the couple's London home in a pair of trainers early yesterday morning. After a long day apart from her husband, she was clearly delighted to have him back in her arms.
Throughout the campaign, SamCam - like the other leader's wives Sarah Brown and Miriam Clegg - has served to show her husband's softer side and reveal more about his personal life.
On election night she joined Mr Cameron into the early hours of the morning at the New Inn, Witney, where the couple shared a drink with friends and supporters.
Support: Mr Cameron helps a pregnant Samantha out of the car as they arrive at the New Inn pub in Witney, and right, after a long election night, Samantha returns to the couple's London home in a pair of trainersA pregnant Samantha, sipping a glass of fizzy water, said: 'I wish I could say it was a double vodka.'
And her pregnancy - the Camerons are expecting their fourth child in September - has not been an obstacle to style.
Stylist Ceril Campbell who runs workshops through discoverthenewyou.co.uk, said Samantha has an innate sense of style which allowed her to look good without the help of designer labels

'We are the winners!': Conservative Party supporters show their support as Mr Cameron arrives at St Stephen's Club in central London todayOld modelling shots of Samantha came to light two months ago, revealing her more vampish side and prompting tabloid headlines of 'Move over Carla Bruni'.
Posing for a female designer friend, in one shot she donned a sheepskin dress and knee-high boots to lie on the floor cuddling a kitten.
But SamCam insisted this week that she was not 'permanently glamorous'.
In an interview with Grazia she said: 'It is definitely very stressful trying to get to work and the kids off to school on time, while spending longer on your make-up etc, and most importantly remembering to pick the cereal out of your teeth before facing the photographers outside.'
Samantha gave her first television interview to ITV's Trevor McDonald in March, echoing Gordon Brown's wife Sarah in revealing personal details about her husband.
She said Mr Cameron was 'definitely not perfect' and had 'lots of very irritating habits' such as being messy around the house.
But she added: 'We've been together for 18 years now and we've been through some fairly tough times, and I can honestly say that I don't think in all that time he's ever let me down.'
