ITV pulled out all the stops for their annual summer party on Wednesday night, and stars turned up in their masses to celebrate the broadcaster.
The bash held at London’s Mandrake Hotel welcomed fan-favourite presenters including AJ Odudu who will host the newest series of Big Brother, This Morning regular Dermot O’Leary, 50, and Lorraine Kelly, 63, who fronts a self-titled daytime show.
Seemingly missing was Dermot’s co-host Alison Hammond, Good Morning Britain’s Kate Garraway and Susanna Reid. Holly Willoughby also was unable to attend as she’s recently headed on a family holiday to Portugal.
Kate, 56, and Susanna, 52, may have given it a miss – maybe they were tired from all the 6 am starts, but Charlotte Hawkins and Richard Madeley, 67, represented the team.
The 48-year-old was very on brand for Barbie Week as she chose a pink sequin dress with feather trimming.
AJ, 35, looked chic in an all-black ensemble giving us a glimpse into the type of styling we may see when she fronts the revived reality show Big Brother, which is returning at the end of this year.

One of the broadcaster’s biggest shows is Love Island, and some of the people made famous by the reality show turned up at the event.
The most recent winners Kai Fagan, and Sanam Harrinanan, who recently moved in together, put on a loved-up display at the event.
The previous champions Ekin-Su Cülcüloğlu and Davide Sanclimenti broke up just last month and risked bumping into each other by both attending.
They both also showed up at the Barbie premiere and didn’t look too pleased to see each other. Ekin-Su 28, even shot Davide, also 28, a death stare.
Shaq Muhammad, 25, and Tanya Manhenga, 23 as well as Will Young, 23, and Jessie Wynter, 26, did show that the programme can produce happy relationships.
Tasha Ghouri, 24, and Andrew Le Page, 28, also showed a united front.
Indiyah Polack is still coupled up with Dami Hope, 27, but was riding solo at the party.
The 24-year-old plays a big part in Love Island following her success on the 2022 series. She hosts the dating show’s official podcast with Sam Thompson, and the pair are regulars on Love Island Aftersun.
The show is now hosted by Maya Jama, 28, but previous host Laura Whitmore, 38, is still a big part of ITV.

Davina McCall will be hosting a ‘middle-aged Love Island’ called My Mum, Your Dad for ITV.
As the title suggests, the people who are looking for love are all single parents from across the UK, and their grown-up offspring are the ones who nominated them to take part in this romantic adventure, but there’s a twist!
‘Unbeknownst to the parents, their kids will be watching their every move from a nearby location called ‘The Bunker’.
Davina, 55, also hosts podcast Making the Cut with boyfriend Michael Douglas, who attended the swanky party with her.
