However, there has been tension in the family following Jeff's safety concerns surrounding Freddy seeing Jackiey.
Although Jeff's youngest son recently talked about wanting to rebuild his relationship with his dad, he failed to share a Father's Day post yesterday.
Instead he chose to keep quiet, and not post anything.
While Freddy chose not commemorate the occasion, his brother Bobby did post about his dad on Father's Day.
Taking to Instagram, the EastEnders star shared a photo of himself, Jeff and Freddy stood on a beach, looking out towards the ocean.
With the three having their arms around each other in the snap, he captioned: "My dad's a rock."
Freddy and Bobby's beloved mum Jade died on Mother's Day in 2009.
Meanwhile, Freddy recently made a shock U-turn on plans to enter rehab – just days after admitting he's been hooked on smoking since the age of 12.
The TV star - who appeared on Celebrity Race Across The World with his dad - shared his dramatic change of heart on Instagram last week.
Posting a black and white throwback of himself as a child, Freddy wrote: 'You know what I don't need rehab! I just need a holiday with a good group of boys or a retreat.'

It came just days after Freddy stunned followers when he opened up about a long-standing smoking addiction and a desire to make peace with his dad after a tense family rift.
He revealed he wanted to get help in Spain for cannabis, saying he 'wants a healthy relationship with his dad'.
In a heartfelt post, he said: 'I want to be clean so I can life happily and have healthy relationships with people and be there for all of my family rather then feeling like I'm in the middle and have to choose a side.'
Freddy also shared hopes of mending things with his famous father, saying: 'I want to play football and take up boxing. I want to be happy and be in a healthy relationship and have a healthy relationship with my Nana and my father.'
The pair have suffered a strained relationship lately which saw Jeff attempt to block Freddy's contact with his grandmother Jackiey, amid safety concerns.
At the beginning of the month, sources told The Sun that Freddy had moved in with Jackiey, who is Jade's mother, in Bermondsey for a week, in defiance of his dad's legal efforts to keep them apart.

BBC TV icon to leave screens for good today as he says 'I'll go quietly'

BBC TV icon to leave screens for good today as he says 'I'll go quietly' The legendary broadcaster is making a low-key departure from TV after over 50 years in the business Steve Rider (right) is bowing out from TV this weekend (Image:) Legendary sports broadcaster Steve Rider will hang up his microphone for the final time today after over 50 years on screen. The 75-year-old will bring the curtain down on his remarkable career as he fronts ITV4's coverage of the British Touring Car Championship at Oulton Park on Sunday afternoon, having held that role for the last 16 years. Rider is probably best known however for presenting the iconic BBC sports show Grandstand, while he covered everything from rugby and golf to rowing and motorsports during his time with the broadcaster. ‌ He also presented Sportsnight and Sports Personality of the Year, as well as hosting the BBC's coverage of every Olympic Games between 1988 and 2004, before leaving the corporation in 2005. ‌ He then joined ITV, where he presented coverage of Formula One, as well as the football and rugby World Cups, before moving on to the British Touring Car Championship. While his remarkable and varied career saw him become one of the most recognisable and popular names in sport broadcasting, however, Rider will make a low-key departure from our screens - but it's one that suits him fine. "God knows, I'll be very disappointed if Andrea Bocelli isn't here,' he joked in an interview with the Telegraph, before adding: 'I'll go quietly, don't worry.' Article continues below Earlier this year, Rider admitted he would "just sidle away" after presenting the Touring Car Championship for the final time. "The biggest emotion as you get into the last two minutes of something like that is, 'For God's sake, don't c**k it up,' because you'd be thinking about that for the next 20 years," he told MailOnline. "I've probably outstayed my welcome. I've been hugely lucky with the places that the career has taken me. But it's close to 50 years now, so the cracks are showing!" ‌ The Dartford-born presenter's exit from TV comes over 18 months after he revealed that he had been diagnosed with prostate cancer. Rider had gone to get himself tested after one of his friends was diagnosed with the same cancer following a medical check, with his wife urging him to undergo further examinations after his readings came back "a little high" following his first check-up. He then underwent "significant" surgery to prevent the disease from spreading and he admitted during an appearance on BBC Breakfast that he had been "incredibly lucky" as the cancer had been detected early. ‌ "I was cutting it a bit fine," Rider said. "They took one look and said, 'We're going to operate in two weeks'. No mucking about. "We did Brands Hatch for ITV on the Sunday and I had the operation on the Thursday, so it fitted into the schedule quite nicely! 'It was one operation, whip it all out, off you go and enjoy the rest of your life, second chance. But I was one of the lucky ones," he added, as he urged people to undergo checks for the disease. ‌ "Get yourself tested because once this wretched thing develops, as we've been seeing from Chris Hoy and Eddie Jordan, it just gallops away and there's no control. The chance you have is early testing." Ahead of Rider's retirement, an ITV statement read: "This Sunday, the legendary Steve Rider will present his final show before he retires following a stellar 45 years working for ITV and BBC. "Steve began his career as a reporter at LBC before moving to Anglia Television. As he progressed through the ranks he went on to work on the Olympic Games, World Of Sport and BBC's Grandstand to name a few. He returned to ITV in 2005 and presented our Formula One coverage, the 2006 Football World Cup, the Champions League and the Rugby World Cup in 2011. Article continues below "More recently, the 75-year-old has been anchoring the British Touring Car Championship on ITV4. We wish Steve all the best in the future and thank him for all his dedication and hard work in a TV career spanning over 50 years on screen."

Another chimed in with praise: "What a breath of fresh air @VickyPattison is #SundayBrunch," and another added, "I honestly don't think Tim should go, but having Vicki is a nice change from two bald blokes being blokey and exciting only really by any footie talk #sundaybrunch."
