Tess Daly and Vernon Kay put on a united front in rare outing as they attend celebrity bash
The loved-up couple were all smiles on the night
TESS Daly and Vernon Kay were seen making a rare public appearance as they attended a star-studded bash on Wednesday.
The couple put on a united front as they continued to move on from the sexting scandal which has rocked their 13-year marriage twice in the past few years.
Strictly Come Dancing host Tess, 47, looked chic in a black sleeveless mini dress with white frill detail, while she added height to her look with stylish black heels.
She wore her blonde locks up in a simple ponytail and accessorised with a black clutch.
While TV presenter Vernon, 42, looked handsome in a navy suit and crisp white shirt as they partied at London's Alva studios.
The couple hit the headlines in April when it emerged that Vernon was still in contact with model Rhian Sugden, whom he had been caught sending explicit text messages to back in 2010.
Six years ago Vernon was forced to make a public apology to his wife on Radio 1 after his “sexting” with Rhian was made public.
In a grovelling statement the DJ said: “Now this week you may or may not be aware that because of some foolish and stupid decisions I have made, I have disappointed and I have let down a lot of people.
“To my family and everybody, I am very sorry.”
But in April this year Vernon, who has been married to Strictly presenter Tess since 2003 and has two daughters with her, had to issue a second statement when it emerged that he had been messaging the model in December and asking to meet.
The Radio X DJ explained: “I recognise how it may look when messages are pulled out of context but there was never any inappropriate intent to our communication.
“I was merely trying to find answers to questions I’ve had since 2010.”
