Jorgie Porter puts on a glamorous display in a white lace sheer dress as she joins Alan Halsall and his new girlfriend at Manchester charity ball

Jorgie Porter looked stunning in a sheer white lace dress at a charity ball in Manchester, where she was joined by Alan Halsall and his new partner.

Former Hollyoaks star, 38, was a standout guest at the Dr Michael Josephson MBE Farewell Ball, an event held to collect money for children’s charities in the North-West.

Jorgie stunned on the red carpet at The Manchester Deansgate Hotel, wearing a beautiful white off-the-shoulder dress. She was accompanied by her fiancé, Oliver Piotrowski.

I was absolutely captivated by Jorgie’s dress! It was a wrap style with this gorgeous white lace – but not in a symmetrical way, which made it even more unique. It had this really delicate sheer panel right at the waist, and the most beautiful train! It was just stunning.

I was so excited to see Alan Halsall, one of the stars of Coronation Street, at the event! Even better, he brought his new girlfriend, Ellie Dolan – it was their first time being seen together publicly, which was lovely to witness.

Alan chose a classic black suit, while his girlfriend looked stunning in a light brown floral dress with a fitted bodice.

The 43-year-old celebrity, known from I’m A Celebrity, revealed he was dating Ellie, who works in human resources, in May.

The Mirror reported that their romance was getting ‘serious’ as early as May, even though they weren’t often seen together.

Alan and Ellie apparently first met at the Marriott Worsley Park club, where Alan is a member and Ellie is an employee.

Graham Norton, the popular talk show host, also attended the ball. He wore a classic black suit with a stylish satin collar.

Former Celebrity Big Brother contestant Marisha Wallace stood out in a striking red dress. The dress was tight-fitting and featured a layered tulle skirt and a visible bra design.

Heather Small, best known as the singer for M People, looked fantastic in a fitted, green midi dress with a racer neckline and textured, ruched fabric.

Emmerdale star Joe Warren Plant also attended, looking sharp in a black three-piece suit as he walked the red carpet.

Rob Rinder, known from television, chose a striking outfit for the occasion: a red velvet tuxedo paired with a classic black satin bowtie.

The event celebrated the incredible work Dr. Michael Josephson MBE has done for charity and featured a diverse group of people from television, music, theater, and the business world.

Gabrielle performed her popular songs like “Dreams” and “Out of Reach” live, and Chesney Hawkes kicked off the event with an opening performance.

The event was hosted by Andrew ‘Freddie’ Flintoff, the former England cricketer and TV star, and Piers Morgan, a well-known journalist and TV presenter. They generously donated a lunch for eight people at a private venue in London.

Dr. Michael Josephson expressed his sincere gratitude to everyone who contributed to the event, including the performers, donors, and all the attendees.

It was incredibly moving to witness so much kindness and generosity, making the Dr. Michael Josephson MBE Farewell Ball a wonderful way to celebrate his legacy.

The Dr. Michael Josephson MBE Farewell Ball, now in its seventh year, has collected millions for various charities. This year’s event alone raised a net total of £1,081,227.
