Pregnant Katherine Ryan, 42, stuns in a heart print dress as she joins her glamorous mother Julie McCarthy, 65, at the Nordoff Robbins gala in London

At the premiere event of Mamma Mia! The Party held at London’s O2, Katherine Ryan shone brightly, signifying the start of a novel charitable collaboration between her and Nordoff & Robbins.

At a high-profile gathering on Thursday night, the comedian, who is expecting, was accompanied by her mother, Julie McCarthy, aged 65.

Katherine gracefully displayed her expanding pregnancy belly in a flowing, black maxi dress adorned with glossy red heart patterns.

She paired with black platform sandals and a gold choker necklace.

In addition, Julie added elegance with a sparkle as she wore a shimmering mini dress adorned with pink sequins and feathers on the sleeves.

She completed her show-stopping look with white open-toe heels and sparkling pink drop earrings.

The dazzling duo were appeared in good spirits as they posed up a storm for the cameras. 

Additionally, Samira Mighty, Amy Dowden, Craig Revel Horwood, Lemar, Henry Conway, and Alison Steadman were also present at the event.

Following some recent critiques about a past professional relationship, I, as an ardent admirer of Katherine, eagerly await her upcoming appearance. This strong-willed woman has always stood up for herself, and her comeback outing serves as a testament to her resilience and unwavering spirit.

As an ardent admirer, I can’t help but share this delightful tidbit: The comedian, bless her heart, is eagerly anticipating the arrival of child number four! Already, she joyously co-parents son Fred, aged four, and daughter Fenna, who is two, with her beloved husband, Bobby Kootstra. And let’s not forget Violet, her eldest daughter, a bright 16-year-old from her earlier relationship, whom she cherishes deeply.

In 2022, the TV figure confided in journalist Louis Theroux (aged 55) during an interview for his TV show “Louis Theroux Interviews.

On Tuesday, she used Instagram to explain that she felt neither ashamed nor proud about past decisions, and she posted a video of her discussing with Louis the nature of her sexual relationship with her former boss.

From the response to this video over the past two years, it appears that many people are puzzled by my lack of either pride or shame regarding the decisions I made during my youth, a time when my brain was still maturing.

In contemporary times, culture is swiftly evolving, and people like me from the era I refer to as ‘the pop girl group era’ had to grapple with being sexualized and sometimes being part of the process. Today, it seems things have shifted somewhat in a new direction.

This week, the 2022 interview featuring Louis interrogating Katherine concerning an alleged romantic involvement with her superior, was uploaded on Stream4U.

Katherine affirms to her boss: “If I were to perform an act that could be interpreted as asking for an early dismissal in a rather explicit manner, would it be possible?” or “Katherine asks her employer if she could potentially leave work early under unusual circumstances.

A stunned Louis responded: ‘You really said that?’

Katherine responded: ‘Yeah. But I liked him. That’s key. He wasn’t just some guy.’

When Louis asked what her bosses’ reply was, she said: ‘He said yes you can. Of course you can. 

‘So then I sucked his d**k and I left early’.

She went on to claim that ‘several’ of the girls in the office had the ‘same arrangement’.

Afterwards, the broadcaster commented that employees who wished to depart earlier but didn’t wish to participate in the sexual act found themselves in a less favorable position, implying they were the ones who lost out in this deal.

Katherine firmly believed that the man under discussion wouldn’t have initiated such a proposal on his own.

Later, Louis inquired whether Katherine still held the same perspective or if she would confront her supervisor for his unacceptable behavior, to which Katherine confessed it was difficult because she genuinely admired him and harbored feelings for him.

She added: ‘I have never sucked the d**k of anyone I didn’t like… at the time.’
