Sophie Habboo and Jamie Laing made their first red carpet appearance since welcoming son Ziggy at London's Royal Festival Hall for the 2026 BAFTAs on Sunday.
The couple, who became parents for the first time in December, were dressed to the nines as they put on a loved-up display while hosting the ceremony's red carpet coverage.
Sophie, 31, looked incredible in a strapless black lace gown which was tailored to perfection and hugged every inch of her incredible figure.
The dress boasted a fishtail skirt with a dramatic train and she completed the look with dazzling diamond necklaces and chandelier earrings.
Accentuating her features with glam make-up Sophie wore her blonde tresses in loose waves while posing up a storm ahead of the star-studded show.
By her side Jamie, 37, looked smart in a black suit and crisp white shirt as he put his arm around his stunning wife.

Additionally, Clare Binns, Creative Director of Picture House Cinemas, will be presented with the BAFTA Outstanding British Contribution to Cinema award.
The honour recognises her role in championing diverse and fiercely independent work on big screens around the United Kingdom.
One Battle After Another will no doubt be hoping to win one award after another, with Paul Thomas Anderson's latest film earning a remarkable fourteen nominations at this year's ceremony.
But it faces stiff competition, notably from supernatural horror Sinners, with thirteen nominations, and Hamnet, director Chloé Zhao's moving drama about the death of Shakespeare's only son, with eleven.
Adapted for the screen from Maggie O'Farrell's award-winning novel about the Bard's family life, Hamnet has broken the record for the most nominations for a female-directed film in BAFTA history.
Irish star Jessie Buckley has been nominated for her lead role in the film after already scoring a Golden Globe and a Critics Choice Award and nominations for the Academy Awards and Screen Actors Guild Awards.

Elsewhere, Marty Supreme starring Timothée Chalamet will be hoping to make it three times lucky after earning eleven BAFTA nominations, including Best Film and Best Actor, following recent wins at the Golden Globes and Critics Choice Awards.
Frankenstein and Sentimental Value each have eight whilst there are five nominations for I Swear and Bugonia, and three nominations for The Ballad of Wallis Island, Pillion and F1.
Also vying for the Leading Actress BAFTA are Rose Byrne for If I Had Legs I'd Kick You; Kate Hudson for Song Sung Blue; Chase Infiniti for One Battle After Another; Renate Reinsve for Sentimental Value and Emma Stone for Bugonia.
Leonardo DiCaprio could earn his second ever BAFTA after scoring his seventh nomination, this year for his Leading Actor performance in the already heavily decorated movie One Battle After Another.
