Olivia Attwood puts on a leggy display in a racy red dress as she promotes her new ITV show after it was branded a 'disaster'

Olivia Attwood looked incredible in a racy red dress as she promoted her new ITV show The Heat after it was branded a 'disaster'.

The presenter, 34, attempted to shut down the noise surrounding her reality cooking show by sharing a slew of leggy snaps on her Instagram on Thursday.

Olivia flaunted her lavish designer accessorises as she took a picture of her red Chanel handbag and Aquazzura high-heels.

The Heat, which sees 10 chefs travel to Barcelona, working under multi Michelin Star award-winning chef Jean-Christophe Novelli, is said to have been plagued by hiccups during filming.

Under Olivia's watchful eye, the group compete against each other to become the next rising culinary star.

However, following its first episode, insiders have said how bosses struggled to entice diners inside the pop-up restaurant and that only alcohol-free Prosecco was served to arriving guests.

They told The Sun: 'The diners waited for nearly two hours for their main courses while shouting and screaming could be heard from the kitchen.

'They didn't even have any alcohol to keep them going – just some warm non-alcoholic Prosecco.'

The fiery show has already lived up to its name, with trailers showing how the restaurant was evacuated mid competition amid a small, contained fire. 

While it was quickly brought under control, it is claimed The Heat's filming schedule was disrupted as a result. 

The show source added how the starters were 'lukewarm' and the traditional Spanish omelette on the menu was served without its 'staple' ingredient, potatoes. 

It was said to have left Jean-Christophe furious with the head chef he had placed in charge of the kitchen, and ordered him to 'leave the premises' while refusing to shake his hand.

The Daily Mail has contacted ITV. 

Olivia had pulled out all the stops with her outfit as she celebrated the show's launch during a bash on Tuesday.

The following day, she headed out for the day in a pair of light blue straight-leg jeans and an oversized cream fur coat. 

Olivia completed her look with a headband and huge clear sunglasses, as well as showing off her Birkin bag. 

She also shared an insight into her work life as she sat at her glam table as her team got her ready for the day 

Olivia has been throwing herself into work following the breakdown of her marriage to Bradley Dack.

The Love Island star split from the footballer in January after three years together, with sources claiming after the marriage ended that he had 'breached her trust'.

Despite her busy schedule, the star recently revealed she had to 'grit her teeth' in order to get through the working day after ending her three year marriage. 

Responding to social media followers during a recent Q&A, she said: 'I have worked too hard for too long to let my professional life suffer.

'Been a lot of slapping myself round the face and gritting my teeth.'
