Sting's wife Trudie Styler, 72, displays her ageless looks as she attends Bari International Film and TV Festival in Italy

Sting's wife, Trudie Styler, showcased her ageless complexion as she attended the Bari International Film and TV Festival in Bari, Italy, on Friday evening. 

The actress, 72, who has been married to the musician for 34 years, looked radiant in a black velvet mini dress, posing up a storm on the red carpet ahead of the event. 

Flashing a glimpse of her toned legs, Trudie added inches to her frame with black leather knee-high boots. 

Wearing minimal makeup to showcase her ageless beauty, Trudie completed the look with a gold cross necklace, hoop earrings, and a gold bracelet. 

She appeared in great spirits during the event, flashing a smile for the cameras on the red carpet. 

Trudie's appearance at the event comes after she attended the Posso Entrare? An Ode To Naples premiere after party, as her husband was forced to cancel an awards show appearance due to ill health.

The music legend, 74, had pulled out of performing at the Bass Magazine Awards last year, and postponed shows in Phoenix, Arizona, and Wheatland, California while he recovered. 

Despite Sting's health scare, Trudie was still in good spirits as she joined stars Hugh Grant and Benedict Cumberbatch for the party at Pizzeria Mozza in London to celebrate a screening of her documentary. 

Posso Entrare? An Ode To Naples was directed by Trudie and detailed herself and Sting's passion for Italy, with the actress explaining her history with the country at the ceremony, during an interview with PEOPLE.

She said: 'Sting and I fell in love with Italy many years ago — so much so that after one of our kids was born near Pisa, we spent years looking for a home for us all. Italy has always been incredibly kind to us.

'Since the 1980s when I made films here in Rome at Cinecittà, then Sting wrote one of his most emotional albums near Pisa the year after his parents died, and at the same time I gave birth to one of our kids, Italy has a special place in our hearts for many reasons.'

Sting and Trudie are parents to four children, Mickey, 40, Jake, 39, Eliot, 33, and Giacomo, 28, while The Police frontman also shares son Joe, 47, and daughter Fuschia, 42, with ex Frances Tomelty.

Last year, a spokesperson for Sting confirmed in a social media post that he would be unable to attend the Bass Magazine Awards, and his two US concerts were being postponed. 

Sting - whose real name is Gordon Matthew Thomas Sumner - sent his apologies to those due to attend the concert and thanked them for being understanding in the unexpected circumstances. 

A post on his Instagram page, read: 'On advisement from his doctor, due to illness, it is with sincere regret that Sting must cancel his appearance at the Bass Magazine Awards this Thursday...

'And postpone his STING 3.0 concerts in Phoenix, AZ (originally scheduled for January 24) to June 1 and Wheatland, CA (originally scheduled for January 26) to May 28 as well as his performance at the Cherrytree Music Company's 20th anniversary, now taking place May 29.

'Fans should retain their tickets for the postponed shows, as they will be honoured on the new dates.

'Sting sincerely apologises for any inconvenience and extends his gratitude to the fans for their understanding.'

Fans of the British star took to the comments section of the post to wish him a speedy recovery following the announcement.

Sharing their messages, they wrote: 'Wishing you a speedy recovery and lots of healing time with near and dear ones'; 'Get well soon'; 'Prayers of healing to you! AMEN!'; 'Take care and get well';

'Stingooo get well soon. Sending you hugs!'; 'Get well soon. Sending prayers'; 'Rest well, Sting'; 'Please get well soon Sting, much love'; 'Get well soon maestro. Greetings from Chile! See you soon';

'Sending Sting love and healing'; 'Get better sooooon!'; 'Hopefully the LA Fire Aid show is still on. I'd love to hear No Doubt and Sting sing Message In A Bottle in 2025'.
