Pride of Britain Awards: Susanna Reid looks sensational in a one-shouldered scarlet gown

Susanna Reid put on a very glamorous display in a stunning scarlet gown as she presented an award at the Pride of Britain Awards on Sunday night.

The Good Morning Britain host, 49, oozed sophistication as she rocked the sequinned red number while presenting at The Royal Chelsea Hospital in pre-recorded scenes.

Susanna added a further touch of bling to her ensemble with shimmering silver drop earrings, while she boosted her height with silver pointed heels.

The broadcaster’s brunette tresses were perfectly blow-dried for the evening, while she matched her dress with a slick of rouge lipstick.

Earlier in the evening, Susanna paid tribute to friend and co-star Kate Garraway, 53, amid her husband Derek Draper’s battle with coronavirus.

Speaking behind the scenes at the Pride of Britain Awards, she said: ‘I’d like to pay tribute to all of the families who are dealing with what COVID has dealt them.

‘And one of my heroes is my friend Kate Garraway, truly an inspiration.’

Clearly moved by Susanna’s comments, Kate later took to Twitter where she penned: ‘Goodness! Thank you so much @susannareid100. Looking forward to @PrideOfBritain tonight @ITV 9pm. #nhs.’ 

The 2020 Pride Of Britain Awards mark the 22nd time Carol Vorderman is fronting the ceremony.

She will be joined this year by co-host Ashley Banjo – with the pandemic rendering proceedings a little different for 2020.

Carol and Ashley will be joined by guest stars Holly Willoughby, Susanna and Paloma Faith, who all filmed their contributions at the famous Royal Hospital Chelsea, which was lit up for the occasion with a stunning Pride Of Britain Awards set.

As the awards air on ITV, landmarks across London, including the London Eye, BT Tower and County Hall, will turn red, white and blue in celebration of this year’s winners. 

Marcus Rashford and Captain Sir Tom Moore will be among those honoured in the ceremony which awards the remarkable achievements of Brits who have selflessly contributed the the nation and the world.

Captain Sir Tom Moore is being recognised for his efforts in raising £32 million for the NHS during lockdown.

Footballer Marcus Rashford will also receive a prize for his campaigns to extend the free school meals scheme over the summer.

Winners will have their awards delivered to them instead of attending a ceremony in person this year.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have already filmed a segment to thank St Bartholomew’s in London for their work during the pandemic with Good Morning Britain’s Kate Garraway. They are set to make another appearance on the evening, too. 

Nominated by the public, the winners are from all walks of life, of all ages, and from all over the country. 

Since the first ceremony in 1999, royalty, prime ministers, and hundreds of leading figures from showbusiness, sport, politics and the arts have all taken part. 

The awards attract an audience of around five million viewers every year in a primetime slot on ITV – making it the highest rated awards show of its kind on British television.

The winners come from tens of thousands of public nominations and stories of remarkable individuals discovered by our team of researchers. They are whittled down to a shortlist from which our judging panel, made up of celebrated figures in national life, chooses the winners.
