Tess Daly wows in red gown with thigh high split on Strictly live show
TESS Daly wowed in a red gown with a thigh high split on Strictly’s latest live show.
The 55-year-old presenter showed off her incredible figure in the clinging red number as she opened the show alongside co-host Claudia Winkleman.
The dress featured a high neck and long sleeves but Tess flashed her toned legs with a thigh high split on one side.
She completed her look with red lipstick and her blonde hair styled in stylish waves.
Strictly fans were bowled over by her red hot look and took to X – formerly Twitter – to compliment her.
One wrote: “Loving Tess’s look tonight.”
Another added: “Tess looking very glam tonight.”
A third tweeted: “Tess & Claudia look incredible as per usual.”
Meanwhile a fourth shared: “Tess looks incredible in Red this evening.”
It isn’t the first time Tess has showed off her model physique.
Earlier this year she wowed fans in a bikini in snaps from her holiday with husband Vernon Kay.
Meanwhile, some Strictly fans were not happy with the way Tess and co-star Claudia are now introduced on the show.
This year, the show has decided to open with the two women already stood on the stage rather than walking on to the Strictly music like they have done for years.
When it happened again tonight, viewers vented their frustrations online.
One angry fan exclaimed: “BRING BACK THE TESS & CLAUDIA WALK IN INTRO!”
A second echoed: “Pack this in! Bring back Tess and Claudia’s walk on!”
Strictly Specials
- Movies Week – Each year the cast of dancers on the show perform spellbinding routines to an iconic movie soundtrack or hit song associated with the big-screen blockbusters. Previous films to have been featured include The Sound of Music, Bridget Jones’ Diary and Clueless.
- Musicals Week – In a similar vein to Movies, the cast perform routines inspired by hit stage musicals each year on the show.
- Halloween Week – Things take a seriously spooky turn as the show transforms into a haven for Halloween towards the end of October. With some bone-chilling costumes and sometimes terrifying routines, it proves to be a fan favourite week year-on-year.
- Blackpool Week – As the show hits Blackpool Tower, things get even more over-the-top. Huge props, backing dancers and extra special effects flood the ballroom for the extra special week.
“It’s really jarring Strictly starting and Tess & Claudia just standing there – why do they not get their intro any more?,” wrote a third user.
While a fourth stated: “It threw me off that Tess and Claudia were already standing on the stage and weren’t announced/did their little beginning skit. WHY? WHYYYYY?”
“I HATE the way they don’t introduce Tess and Claudia anymore with the “Live from the BBC” and Dave Arch wagging his finger… really takes away from the atmosphere,” noted a fifth viewer.
Strictly airs on BBC One and is available on BBC iPlayer.
