ITV's Charlotte Hawkins, Alice Beer brush Phillip Schofield affair scandal ... trends now
Charlotte Hawkins and Alice Beer appeared in good spirits as they stepped out to the one-year anniversary performance of ABBA Voyage in London on Saturday.
On Friday, their ITV co-star Phillip Schofield quit the network and was dropped by his talent agency YMU after admitting to an affair with a younger This Morning colleague.
Newsreader Charlotte, 48, wore a white sequinned dress which featured a plunging neckline and flared sleeves, with the skirt finishing just above the knee.
She was joined by This Morning's consumer presenter Alice, 58, who wore a silky white blouse and metallic silver trousers for the evening, after speaking of her dismay at the 'sorry mess' engulfing the ITV programmer earlier in the day.
They were joined by fashion presenter Mark Heyes, 46, who also regularly appears on This Morning, with the stylist looking dapper in a grey jacket which he teamed with some white trousers and a matching shirt.
