Susanna Reid, 48, looked the picture of elegance at Royal Ascot 2019 today, taking in the action from the ITV box. Piers Morgan, 54, however, couldn’t resist making fun of her as he filmed their afternoon out in view of his 616,000 Instagram followers. As the Queen arrived at the racecourse and the crowd stood to sing the national anthem, Piers narrated, greeted the monarch: “Good afternoon, your Majesty. There she is,” he told fans. The presenter then turned the camera on Susanna.
“And Good afternoon Your Majesty,” he jibed, but his co-star seemed unaware of his joke, appearing not to hear.
Piers persevered, however, continuing to tease Susanna as he went on to show Dame Joan Collins, 86, beside him.
“Dame Joan, singing there for Her Majesty,” he commented, panning the camera around to show Chief Executive of ITV, Dame Carolyn McCall.
“Dame Carolyn, that’s two dames,” he added, before showing Susanna once again and quipping: “And plain old Susanna Reid.”
Susanna looked sensational in pictures from their day at the races, with Piers later sharing a picture of the pair himself stood between her and Dame Joan.
“A rose between two thorns!” he wrote in the caption.
Susanna could be seen showcasing her slender curves in a figure-hugging blush pink dress with a lace panel over her décolletage and shoulders.
She paired the number with a matching hat with a wide brim and a veil.
The Good Morning Britain favourite opted for a polished makeup look, with a touch of blusher across the apples of her cheeks, smokey eyes and a slick of nude pink lipstick.
Dame Joan, meanwhile, opted for a floral number, also in pastel pink, and a fascinator with a veil which partially covered her face.
Piers wore a top hat and morning suit with a pink polka dot tie, beaming for the camera as his female friends posed either side of him.
He later uploaded another shot from inside the ITV box at Royal Ascot, snapping a quick selfie with Jason Manford, 38, Stephen Mulhern, 42, Charlotte Hawkins, 44, and Mark Heyes, 42.
“Getting messy in the @itv box,” he captioned the upload.
Elsewhere, Dame Darcey Bussell returned to the spotlight at Royal Ascot 2019 after quitting Strictly Come Dancing.
The former prima ballerina, 50, was pictured at Ascot Racecourse in a floaty chiffon number with tiered ruffles on top.
She accessorised with a black hat and a white clutch bag.
