The owner of one of London's most 'Instagrammable' homes says he'll always keep it painted pink, even though the colour attracts hordes of posing influencers.

Peter Lee, 80, says his home in Notting Hill, west London is visited daily by people using it as a backdrop for their social media pictures.

The great-grandfather has taken a different view to a group of disgruntled locals living on Lancaster Road, famed for it's colourful homes, just over a mile away.

They have painted their houses black in the hopes of warding off selfie-loving influencers - who they say are swarming their residential street.

The former fashion designer, who has lived in his home for 47 years, said he's seen people doing the splits in front of his steps - and even balancing on his railings.
