The former Coronation Street star added quirky pendant earrings to the look - and pouted her lips with a bold scarlet lipstick.

Meanwhile little Matty appeared to do a cowboy dress up - in a black jacket and matching trousers, silver sating shirt and a white cowboy hat.

Denise shares her eldest son Matty, 33, with ex partner and Benidorm star Tim Healy. 

The 1975 frontman has been under the spotlight in the last month as rumours swirled about a romance with singer Taylor Swift.

On Friday, Matty opened for the Grammy-winner for a second time during her night concert in Philadelphia.

The 33-year-old songstress is whirling through her Eras Tour, which this weekend arrived in the City of Brotherly Love for three concerts at the Lincoln Financial Field.

Matty, a bad boy English rocker who used to be addicted to heroin, took the mic dressed in a skeleton suit and accompanied himself on the guitar.

At another point in the show, an eagle-eyed fan caught a glimpse of Matty in the crowd and took a brief video that was then posted to Twitter.

Standing near Matty in the audience was Taylor's longtime pal Blake Lively, as well as Sabrina Carpenter.

In a follow-up tweet, the fan wrote that Blake had brought her children James, eight, Inez, six, and Betty, three, whom she shares with her husband Ryan Reynolds.

Taylor's song Betty is named after Blake and Ryan's youngest daughter - and before performing it Friday, the pop star reportedly shouted out Blake and the children.

The evening's audience was apparently awash with famous faces, as Bethenny Frankel also posted a charming Insta Story from the concert of her and her and her 13-year-old daughter Bryn singing along to Taylor's hit single Trouble.

Matty's appearance at Taylor's show comes one day after they were caught 'kissing' and holding hands while on a romantic date in New York City on Thursday, May 11.

The hot new couple were on a double date with Swift's collaborator Jack Antonoff and his fiancée Margaret Qualley at Casa Cipriani, as captured by a fan on social media.

A witness told Page Six that Taylor and Matt were seated next to one another in the lounge of the celeb hotspot and 'security was around them'.

The source added that Taylor and the 1975 frontman were 'cuddling and kissing' as they waited for their food.

Taylor and Matt sparked romance rumors earlier last month following her shock split from British actor Joe Alwyn.

Healy has been supporting the Anti-Hero singer at recent stops on her Eras Tour, which kicked off in March.

For their Thursday night date in the city, Taylor looked elegant in a yellow sundress and wore her blonde hair in a low bun.

She was spotted strolling into the venue with a glass of wine in one hand while the other was seemingly interlocked with Healy's.

The pop rocker looked effortlessly cool in all black and with a pair of sunglasses on his head of curly brown hair.

Page Six's insider said that Swift, Healy, Antanoff and Qualley were all attending a banquette at the high-end hotel.

The outing comes days after Matt was spotted clapping and gyrating while attending the most recent gig in Taylor's Eras Tour.
