TV Choice Awards 2022: Christine McGuinness, Ekin-Su and Katherine Ryan lead the glamour

The stars of some of the biggest TV shows have descended on the red carpet to celebrate the TV Choice Awards 2022, showing off some of their most dazzling outfits to date.

After hosting virtual events for the last two years, the awards ceremony is back to honour the nation's favourite programmes, with the likes of This Morning and The Chase battling it out to win.

The popular awards are voted for purely by an audience of TV buffs who have been busy deciding their favourite daytime show, the best soap and best drama series to name a few.

Among the first to grace the red carpet this evening was Christine McGuinness, Katherine Ryan, Love Island's Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Tasha Ghouri.

Christine turned heads in a tailored black suit which featured black feathered cuffs. She teased a hint of her cleavage and added a boost to her height with black heels.

The reality TV star, who earlier this year announced her split from husband Paddy McGuinness, cut a confident figure as she posed for photos of the patterned grey carpet.

Love Island winner Ekin-Su opted for an understated gold dress, which showcased her silhouette. She accessorised the look with a fluffy bag in a similar shade.

Her former co-star Tasha put on a daring display as she went braless in an eye-catching black blazer and low-rise trousers. She added a pop of colour with red lipstick.

She was joined at the event by her boyfriend Andrew Le Page - whom she met on Love Island this year. He was photographed wearing a maroon suit and a black shirt.

Meanwhile, comedian Katherine - who is currently expecting her third child - decided to bring some sparkle to the awards ceremony, which was held in London.

Kathy was photographed wearing a flowing black gown, whilst her former co-star Siobhan wore a colourful alternative. They pair both opted for red lipstick and black shoes.

This year's ceremony is being hosted by comedian Jo Brand who said: "I am, as always, really looking forward to the great evening of The TV Choice Awards 2022. It's always a lively event, and yes, that is a euphemism!"
