Holly Willoughby proves there is no bad blood with new This Morning host Cat Deeley as they laugh and pose for photos together at the Women of the Year Awards

You would think they'd be somewhat perfect rivals. For Cat Deeley is the one who replaced Holly Willoughby on the primetime slot of the This Morning sofa.

But it appears all of those rumours can now be put to rest as the presenters have been pictured giggling and hugging whilst at an awards night.

The Harper's Bazaar Women of the Year Awards returned to Claridge's for its annual celebration of inspirational females.

On Thursday night, some of the most recognisable and successful women gathered to accept awards and enjoy the evening.

Among those was the former This Morning host Holly Willoughby, 45, who wore a black tuxedo minidress by L’Agence, sheer black tights and a high black heel.

And on her arm for some of the night was the current This Morning host, Cat Deeley, 50, who opted for a long Grecian style white satin dress which she paired with a gold belt.

Both women wore their blonde hair in loose waves and upped the glamour in siren-red lipstick and made sure to pose with their arms around one another before sitting down for dinner.

Holly had arrived at the event with her husband of 19 years, Dan Baldwin.

The pair arrived hand in hand and seemed to let their hair down and enjoy their date night.

Cat took over as a permanent co-presenter on ITV's This Morning in 2024 following Holly's high-profile departure from the daytime show.

And their rare public outing and friendly interaction made sure to firmly shut down any speculation regarding a potential rivalry or rift over the in-demand daytime slot.

Other huge names jetted across the Atlantic to be honoured for their illustrious careers on Thursday night.

Cate Blanchett, Mikey Madison and Isla Fisher were among those in attendance for the event, which honours extraordinary women who have shaped the worlds of fashion, film, art, sport, literature and culture over the past year.

No stranger to glitzy events, Cate arrived in a dazzling blue dress with an intricately painted artwork skirt, while Mikey, who was set to receive the Film Actress award, opted for a chic pale grey dress.

During the ceremony, Harper's Bazaar editor-in-chief Lydia Slater honoured screen and stage legend Glenn Close with the Icon Award in recognition of her dazzling five-decade career portraying complex, challenging women and her enduring impact on screen and stage.

Mikey was named Film Actress of the Year, recognised for the versatility of her performances, from her Oscar-winning turn in Anora to her searing portrayal of a real-life whistleblower in The Social Reckoning.

Following her acclaimed performance as Taggie O'Hara in Disney+'s Rivals, Bella Maclean received the Breakthrough Award, presented in association with headline partner, the Platinum Card® by American Express.

The Traitors host and national treasure Claudia Winkleman was named Television Icon, an award celebrating the grace, charm and unmistakable style that have made her one of Britain's best-loved broadcasters.

Meanwhile, Cate took home the Theatre Actress Award for her dual-role performance in the National Theatre's production of Electra/Persona.
