Oh, Dad!

Celebrity chef Jamie Oliver, 40, is such a big Star Wars fan that he was seen walking in north London with his daughters Poppy Honey Rosie, 13, Daisy Boo Pamela, 12, while wearing a Stormtrooper costume—helmet, toy weapon and all, as seen in a photo he posted on Instagram this week, just before Star Wars: The Force Awakens hit theaters. The girls wore school uniforms.

"Embarrassing Dad !!! Haha," Oliver wrote.

Oliver is a huge Star Wars fan and even has his own recipe for "Stormtrooper Trifle."

Oliver and Star Wars veteran Harrison Ford, 73, who reprises his role of Han Solo in Star Wars: The Force Awakens, recently appeared together on The Jonathan Ross Show.

Oliver showcased his love for Star Wars and excitement over the new movie on Instagram several times.

Last week, he shared a pic of himself wearing a Darth Vader outfit.
