Stacey Solomon’s Wedding Dress Transformed into Sparkling Playsuit for BAFTAs!

BBG News

She’s nominated for two awards at tonight’s ceremony. 

On Sunday evening, Stacey Solomon made the night extraordinary by opting to don her wedding gown for the 2025 BAFTA Television Awards held at the Royal Festival Hall of the Southbank Centre.

Before the event, the 35-year-old TV host posted several photos on Instagram showcasing her stunning outfit. Interestingly, this outfit was crafted from her wedding dress that she wore when tying the knot with Joe Swash in July 2022.

She displayed her slim waistline and well-toned legs in a revamped gown, now transformed into a trendy jumpsuit, because she felt it was a pity to wear her wedding outfit just once.

Stacey decided to modify her dress by preserving its fitted torso part, discarding the detachable shoulder straps, and instead accentuating it with a striking, pointed design on the neckline.

As she switched to shorts, there was a high, slit opening in the shimmering fabric of the skirt she wore before, revealing her well-toned legs beneath.

Five-children-mother gracefully stood beside Joe, exuding elegance in his sleek black tailored suit, complete with a dapper black waistcoat and tie.

Overflowing with excitement as I, an ardent admirer, find myself in contention for not one, but TWO accolades at the upcoming awards! The honor of being nominated for the Entertainment Performance prize for my beloved “Sort Your Life Out” is truly humbling. But wait, there’s more – the show itself has been recognized, gracing us with a nomination for Best Factual Entertainment! This recognition fuels my passion even further and I can hardly contain my joy!

She wrote: ‘Heading to the BAFTAs ✨ I’m thrilled and thankful to be nominated for not one, but TWO @bafta awards this year! Wow, what an incredible journey.’

I’m grateful to BAFTA for bestowing this recognition upon me. Also, a big thank you goes out to my team at sortyourlifeout and bbciplayer for providing me with the opportunity to host such an extraordinary show. It truly is the best job in the world, and I cherish every moment of it.

Sharing the delightful background of her attire, Stacey additionally disclosed her reasoning behind choosing to don her cherished wedding gown once more.

She explained: “I chose to alter my wedding gown for this occasion, as using it only once seems wasteful to me. I wanted to bring it out again and wear it on another memorable day.

I’d like to express my gratitude to @fayesawyerstylist and Issy for turning my wedding dress into a truly unique and stunning piece. You two are simply amazing, and I adore you both. A heartfelt thank you also goes out to Penny for making me feel as beautiful as ever. Wishing us all the best of luck ahead! 🤞

Instead, “I sought assistance from my longtime friend and fashion guru, Faye, along with her talented tailor, Izzy, to refashion my dress so I can wear it once more.

This glamorous event will feature numerous famous faces receiving accolades for exceptional TV work, along with impressive acts on stage.

Notable musicians Jessie J and Tom Grennan are scheduled to entertain at an upcoming event. Powerful vocalist Jessie J will make her first television appearance in six years performing “The Award Goes To”.

In an exclusive television event, the popular multi-platinum artist Tom will debut his latest song titled “Full Attention.

In the process, Tom expressed his gratitude by saying, “What an honor it is for me to be asked to perform at the renowned BAFTA, among so many respected actors and artists.

For the very first time, renowned Scottish entertainer, author, and producer Alan Cumming takes charge as the host of the glamorous event.

Emma Baehr, the Executive Director of Awards and Content at BAFTA, expressed her joy about Alan Cumming being this year’s host for the BAFTA Television Awards, in partnership with P&O Cruises.

At Britain’s grand television event on the 11th of May, he is guaranteed to inject an unpredictable blend of playfulness and mischief. Therefore, spectators should be ready for some surprising moments during the ceremony.

The shortlist for the BAFTA Television Awards 2025’s P&O Cruises Memorable TV Moment has been revealed elsewhere.

Six highly praised television series from this year, including Gavin and Stacey, The Traitors, and Bridgerton, will compete for a major award at the upcoming event.

In this category, it’s exclusively open for public participation – they can express their preference by voting for their most beloved scene.

Last year’s BAFTA Television Awards garnered an average viewership of 2.7 million on BBC One and iPlayer, while the event’s social media coverage amassed over 7 million views.

For the very first time in its 20-year span, Strictly Come Dancing has been overlooked and not received a nomination among other shows it usually competes with.

Since the revamped show debuted in 2004, the program that BBC audiences love has been annually nominated in the Entertainment Programme category.

baby Reindeer, the hit series on Netflix, garnered an impressive eight nominations, making it the frontrunner, as it gained popularity worldwide shortly after its launch last year.

Richard Gadd, the writer and lead actor in a series based on his own stalking ordeal, has been nominated for the Lead Actor category. Meanwhile, his fellow cast member, Jessica Gunning, has also been recognized with a nomination for the Supporting Actress award.

In the “Limited Drama” section, Baby Reindeer will square off against ITV’s drama titled Mr. Bates vs The Post Office. This drama is loosely based on one of the most significant miscarriages of justice in British legal history. It involves a faulty IT system that led to numerous innocent sub-postmasters and postmistresses being falsely accused of theft, fraud, and accounting irregularities.

In the nomination count, both Mr. Bates and The Post Office, as well as the Disney series Rivals and Apple TV’s Slow Horses, all received six nods each.

Here are the six contenders for the top actress nomination: Anna Maxwell Martin [for her role in “Until I Kill You”], Billie Piper [“Scoop”], Lola Petticrew [“Say Nothing”], Marisa Abela [“Industry”], Monica Dolan [“Mr Bates vs The Post Office”], and Sharon D Clarke [“Mr Loverman”].

In a natural, easy-to-understand manner: David Tennant, Gary Oldman, Lennie James, Martin Freeman, and Toby Jones are all in competition for the title of Best Actor, with their performances in “Rivals,” “Slow Horses,” “Mr. Loverman,” “The Responder,” and “Mr. Bates vs The Post Office” respectively.

21 out of the 44 contenders in the performance categories are first-timers at the BAFTA Television Awards.

Exactly half of the 44 individuals competing in the performance categories are newcomers to the BAFTA Television Awards.

Or, more casually:
Out of the 44 people up for awards in the performance categories, 21 haven’t been nominated before at the BAFTA TV Awards.

As a die-hard admirer, I can’t contain my excitement! It turns out that soap opera legend, Danny Dyer, has earned his very first BAFTA nomination! This recognition is in the Best Male Comedy Performance category, all thanks to his exceptional role in Mr. Bigstuff. What a remarkable achievement for our beloved Danny!

In the highly-regarded Best Drama category, the crime dramas “Blue Lights” and “Sherwood” will compete against the popular superhero series “Supacell” and the critically-acclaimed period drama “Wolf Hall: The Mirror and the Light.” This means that these four productions will face off in this particular award category.

According to Jane Millichip, CEO of Bafta, the year 2024 was exceptional in television, as shown by the 134 exceptional programs that were nominated by Bafta members.

Television’s ability to shape national discourse, delve into compelling public narratives, and catalyze social transformation, is truly unparalleled. Furthermore, its capacity to accomplish this across various genres makes it even more remarkable.

This year’s nominees encompass the excitement of sports, the authenticity of stories, the real-life depictions, the emotional resonance of humor, and substantial amusement – they span all facets that portray the full spectrum of human experiences.

UK television is currently thriving, and it’s an honor for BAFTA to present the exceptional work of our incredibly gifted nominees at the BAFTA Television Craft Awards and BAFTA Television Awards with P&O Cruises. Make sure to catch the results on BBC One and BBC iPlayer on May 11th. Don’t just find out who takes home the awards, but let these exceptional shows inspire your upcoming viewing choices.
