Carol Vorderman’s glittering Pride of Britain look

Carol’s dress shimmered with glitter and extended into a sweeping train behind her. She finished the look with a diamond tennis necklace, complimenting the gown’s off-the-shoulder neckline.

The former Countdown presenter, 65, has hosted the ceremony since it began in 1999. Ashley Banjo joined her as co-host in 2021, and the pair were returning to the stage for this year’s event.

The awards recognise members of the public for exceptional bravery, courage and dedication to helping others. Stars from television, film and sport gathered to celebrate their achievements.

Fans were stunned by Carol’s look, with many sharing their thoughts online. One person wrote on TikTok: “Carol looks so so much younger with that hair.”

Another added on Instagram: “Wow you look incredible!”

Someone else said: “Wow!!! I’m absolutely loving your Dark hair Carol. It really suits you!”
