Helen Flanagan and Charlotte Dawson lead the way at Aintree Races for Ladies Day

Ex Coronation Street actress Helen Flanagan enjoyed a day out with her mum at Aintree Races, while a host of other celebs looked gorgeous for Ladies Day.

Helen, 32, and a mum-of-three looked flawless in a brown wrap dress and a pale pink fascinator, with a pink bag and gold strappy sandals.

Her mum Julia looked stylish as she wore a blue wrap dress with a fascinator to match and a studded clutch.

Helen, who is engaged to footballer Scott Sinclair, recently revealed she is content with her little family and doesn't plan to expand her brood, while opening up on the pros and cons of breast feeding on social media.

As well as Helen, reality TV star Charlotte Dawson, 29, looked pretty in pink in a strapless, ruched jumpsuit.

The Ex on the Beach star and daughter of comedian Les Dawson, who has recently been sharing pics of her three stone weight loss, also wore a netted fascinator which matched her outfit.

The mum of one beamed as she posed with her fiancé Matthew Sarsfield, who planted a kiss on her cheek in one snap.

The influencer was warned by doctors earlier this year to clean up her diet, otherwise, she’d be at serious risk of developing Type 2 diabetes.

Pink was clearly a theme for the day as former Real Housewives of Cheshire star Tanya Bardsley wore a dark pink, figure hugging mini dress with a statement collar. She paired the bold dress with matching heels, with ribbons tied around her ankles.

BBC Breakfast presenter Dan was also spotted enjoying the races, after he announced his shock move to Channel 5 on Monday.

The presenter looked suave in a navy three piece suit, as he shared photos on Twitter of himself with ex Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson, and co-host Sally Nugent.

Dan addressed his decision to move to Channel 5 on Tuesday's show as he told his Sally: "This has been a really difficult decision for me. Probably the hardest decision I've had to make in my career.

"Because I love you to bits and I love working with you."

"I love you too, Daniel," Sally interjected.

Some 40,000 revellers flooded through the gates of Aintree racecourse as visitors celebrated the first Ladies' Day in three years on Friday.

The event, famous for its style, made a comeback on today after being cancelled due to the pandemic in 2020 and held behind closed doors last year.

One racegoer Gill Carpenter, 55, said she had been waiting two years to wear her outfit, a hot pink dress with orange accessories, complete with a striking hat she made herself.

She said: "I'm actually quite emotional. This is my favourite meeting of the year.

"I love it, I love the atmosphere, I love the style, so I have found myself quite choked to actually be here."
