Ella Rae Wise Stuns in Plunging Blazer at Women’s Football Awards with Rachel Riley and Gabby Logan

BBG News

On Thursday, the Women’s Football Awards drew an impressive array of celebrities from both the sports and entertainment worlds to the InterContinental Park Lane Hotel in London.

This award ceremony honors talent at every level, ranging from unsung heroes in amateur leagues to star performers on the field. Initiated in 2022 alongside Daily Mail Sport and Metro, it represents the most significant event recognizing women’s football achievements.

Ella Rae Wise, age 24 and a recent contestant on Celebrity Big Brother, was the first to arrive at the stylish gathering, where she mingled with notables such as Rachel Riley and Gabby Logan.

The Reality TV personality exuded elegance in a deeply cutback, sleek black jacket that accentuated her captivating figure, coupled with spacious-leg pants and high heels.

She sported an Hermès handbag slung over one arm, accessorized by dainty jewelry pieces, while a bold stroke of crimson lipstick added a vibrant touch to her otherwise monochromatic attire.

The person with a reality TV persona styled her golden hair in gentle curls and created quite a stir as she struck numerous poses on the crimson carpet before the event began.

I had the absolute thrill when Countdown’s very own Rachel, a radiant 39-year-old, graced my presence! She truly stole the show in a dazzling silver sequin gown, adorned with alluring cuts that revealed her stylish side.

The mom of two accessorized even more elegantly by donning a set of shiny golden sandals and a sleek silver handbag, and she chose a pretty shade of pink lipstick.

At the same time, TV host Gabby, aged 52, was radiant in a blue satin gown featuring waist-high ruching and pink heels.

In a casual yet stylish manner, the ex-gymnast styled her hair in loose, wavy curls and applied elegant makeup, completing the look with a modest pendant necklace.

Additionally present was Nicola Roberts, dressed elegantly in a fitted black off-shoulder gown that accentuated her slender figure.

The singer from Girls Aloud sported fiery red hair styled in a lively, voluminous blowout, paired with makeup that harmonized well and a timeless pair of black heels.

The event honors individuals, institutions, and companies that have consistently supported sports promotion, and it consistently draws the most prominent figures in international soccer year after year.

The event is championed by the biggest personalities in the game.

It is being hosted by Gabby Logan MBE and Sky Sports presenter Jamie Carragher.

Gabby will soon replace Gary Lineker as a host for Match of the Day, and she’s promised that the show won’t undergo a drastic change.

As your go-to lifestyle guide, I am thrilled to share that starting from the next season, I will be joining forces with Mark Chapman and Kelly Cates to take the helm of BBC’s premier football show. After an illustrious 26-year tenure, Gary is gracefully stepping down from his role, handing over the chair to a new team.

When Gary leaves, they plan to divide the hosting responsibilities for Match of the Day and Match of the Day 2 among the three of them as they step into their new roles.

Despite the rotating host for the upcoming episodes, Gabby wants to assure viewers that significant alterations to the renowned highlights program won’t be drastic or earthquake-like.

The presenter said on the Ainslie + Ainslie Performance People podcast that they don’t want to discard the valuable insights along with the repetitive analysis, as it’s still essentially a football highlights show.

As the recently announced lifestyle expert on the BBC, I can tell you that my team and I worked tirelessly to maintain secrecy before our big reveal.

The three formed a private WhatsApp chat for sharing thoughts on Match of the Day, strengthening their connection before the major announcement, and they erased messages to ensure the information remained confidential among them.

Gabby mentioned that she hadn’t shared the news with her mother yet, as she had only confided in her husband, the ex-Scotland rugby player Kenny.

In my eagerness to organize, I established a chat named “The Match of the Day Three”. However, due to Chappers’s intense concern for privacy, self-destructing messages were implemented. Apart from Kenny, whom I confided in, everyone else remained oblivious to this secret gathering.

It’s clear that BBC executives, led by the newly appointed head of sports, Alex Kay-Jelski, are keen on taking a new approach with the hiring of three new hosts for the show.

For nearly three decades, Match of the Day had Gary Lineker as its main host. Now, with a revolving group of hosts and two female presenters, the show is undergoing a significant transformation.

Gabby appreciated that the world of sports broadcasting presents a unique terrain for female professionals, whether they are on-screen or off.

‘There are now so many great male and female broadcasters,’ she added.

Furthermore, it’s encouraging to see an increasing number of women working not only on-camera or as broadcasters, but also playing significant roles off-camera, such as coaches, team managers, and other key positions within sports organizations.
