Wearing a khaki-coloured jumpsuit, the maths wizz highlighted her toned physique with a big black belt that cinched her in on the waist. Vorderman did not depart something to probability together with her on-brand search for the night, accessorising with a pair of flier sun shades, chicly hung from the button-down fastening.

A second Instagram put up, shared earlier right now, delved into Vorderman’s love of flying. Sharing a picture of herself in a flying swimsuit – a homage to her ardour for aviation, she defined – the TV presenter reemphasised her love of aviation.
“You recognize the one factor I ever wished to be rising up and possibly since is a fighter pilot. I used to be born 20 years too early, they did not take girls pilots within the navy in my day. However I acquired my licences in my 50s which closed a cheerful circle.
“So tonight is not only a purple carpet or a film for me. It is rather more significant, I assume.”
