Sophie Habboo surprised many fans by hosting the EE BAFTA Film Awards red carpet event just 11 weeks after welcoming her first child on Sunday.
The former Made In Chelsea star, who co-hosted with her husband Jamie Laing, stunned in a tight-fitting black lace dress with no straps.
Sophie, 31, received a lot of positive comments on social media, with fans calling her ‘unreal’ and ‘stunning’ after she confidently walked the red carpet just weeks after having a baby.
Jamie, 37, playfully joked about his wife ‘winning’ when he shared a video of them dancing in a hotel hallway, implying she was with someone ‘out of her league’.
The celebrity imitated Hailey Bieber’s signature finger tap – a small clapping motion she did while her husband, Justin Bieber, was performing at the Grammys.
As Sophie posed for photos on the red carpet, Jamie nervously tapped his fingers and texted: ‘If Hailey can handle this, I can too.’
People showered new mom Sophie with praise after seeing her on the red carpet just 11 weeks after giving birth. One message perfectly captured the excitement: ‘You look absolutely sensational! How is that even possible?’
Someone is playfully suggesting a BAFTA award be reshaped to look like Sophie’s face, and expressing overwhelming excitement and praise for her incredible appearance. They’re using enthusiastic and exaggerated language like ‘unreal’ and ‘unbelievable’ to convey their admiration.
‘Beautiful’; ‘Just incredible’; ‘Gorg’; ‘Looking absolutely unreal’; ‘Wow!’.
The couple made their first red carpet appearance since their son was born late last year.
They looked incredibly stylish and affectionate while hosting the red carpet coverage of the event.
Sophie looked stunning in a perfectly fitted black lace dress that showed off her figure.
The dress featured a fitted fishtail shape that flowed into a long, elegant train. She finished the outfit with sparkling diamond necklaces and earrings.
Sophie looked stunning with glamorous makeup and loose, flowing blonde hair as she posed for photos before the big show.
Jamie, looking handsome in a black suit and white shirt, had his arm around his beautiful wife.
Earlier today, Sophie shared a peek behind the scenes, posting photos of herself getting ready for the glamorous event.
Sophie shared a peek at her getting-ready process on Instagram Stories with her hairstylist, Willis Galbraith, who often helps her prepare for industry events.
The mother seemed thrilled to be getting special treatment before the event. She started out comfortably dressed in a matching grey outfit, then changed into a beautiful gown.
Jamie posted a photo to her story of herself getting ready, joking that their hotel room was a mess.
The video featured Sophie surrounded by stylists and a camera crew, likely shooting footage for their upcoming reality show documenting their journey into parenthood.
The couple recently stepped out together in public for the first time since their baby was born, attending the EE and Glamour BAFTA Rising Star party.
I was so thrilled to see Sophie and Jamie celebrating! She shared some adorable photos from the EE BAFTAs Rising Star Party, and the caption – ‘Mum and Dad’s big night out’ – just melted my heart. It was such a sweet way to mark the occasion.
Before heading out, Sophie looked stunning in a short black dress with off-the-shoulder detailing, paired with sheer tights and high heels.
Sophie styled her long blonde hair in loose, voluminous waves and completed her look with subtle, glamorous makeup that highlighted her features.
She was snuggled up to Jamie, who looked sharp in a black suit and T-shirt, completed by a nice pair of dress shoes.
The couple, married in Sotogrande, Marbella, in May 2023, recently shared photos from a chic bathroom shoot in their new home in Notting Hill, West London.
As a lifestyle expert, I always keep an eye on events that really launch careers, and this party was all about celebrating the nominees for a seriously prestigious award. It’s known as a stepping stone to becoming a major star – just look at past winners like Tom Holland, James McAvoy, Tom Hardy, Lashana Lynch, and Kristen Stewart! It’s exciting to see who will be next.
Okay, seriously, I’ve been tracking these actors forever, and I nearly lost it when the BAFTA Rising Star nominees were announced last month! Archie Madekwe – you probably know him as Lurker – is up for the award, and honestly, he deserves it. Then there’s Chase Infiniti, who was incredible in ‘One Battle After Another,’ and Miles Caton – ‘Sinners’ was just… wow. And Posy Sterling! Lollipop was such a delightful surprise, and she was amazing in it. But honestly, Robert Aramayo? YES! He’s been quietly brilliant for ages, and ‘I Swear’ just proved it. I’m already planning my voting strategy!
Mia McKenna-Bruce, the 2024 EE Rising Star Award winner, and film critic and radio host Ali Plumb co-hosted the event.
A panel of industry professionals – including actors Joe Alwyn, Sheila Atim, and Benedict Wong, as well as other experts – selected the nominees.
The award was collected by I Swear actor, Robert Aramayo, at the ceremony on Sunday.
