Fresh from their recent wedding, television presenter Davina McCall and her new husband Michael Douglas made a glowing public appearance, radiating happiness at the prestigious Bestseller Awards in London.
A Star-Studded Night for the Newlyweds
The couple, who tied the knot in an intimate London ceremony just last month, arrived at the Monday night event arm-in-arm, showcasing their evident joy. McCall, 58, was there to celebrate her latest literary success, the book titled Menopausing. She chose a stylish black sparkly skater dress for the occasion, elevating her look with a pair of classic black stilettos.
Her husband, 49-year-old hairdresser Michael Douglas, complemented her elegance in a smart-casual ensemble. He wore a black cardigan layered over a black shirt, paired with grey trousers and finished with black leather loafers.
Fashion Highlights from the Red Carpet
They were far from the only style icons at the awards. Actress and writer Ruth Jones commanded attention in a striking leopard-print maxi dress, which she teamed with brown leather boots. Author Bella Mackie opted for a sophisticated and polished look, wearing a navy blazer over a simple black T-shirt and trousers.
Adding a vibrant burst of colour to the proceedings was author Jennie Godfrey. She stepped out in a bright blue maxi dress, accessorising boldly with hot pink heels and a matching clutch bag.
A Wedding Forged Through Support and Strength
The loved-up outing follows the couple's deeply personal wedding, which took place in London in front of a small gathering of just 11 guests. The emotional ceremony occurred a mere three months after Douglas proposed to McCall during a holiday in Ibiza.
Friends of the couple have suggested that Davina's recent health challenges played a significant role in their decision to marry now. Michael stood steadfastly by her side through surgery to remove a benign brain tumour and a subsequent breast cancer diagnosis, solidifying their bond.
The wedding was a celebration of their closest circle, including McCall's daughter Tilly, 21, who shared moments ahead of the ceremony on social media. Last month, Davina broke her silence on the marriage, sharing a poignant poem by Harry Baker that seemed to capture the essence of their partnership, focusing on everyday comfort and deep connection rather than grand gestures.
