Forget the National Television Awards, Myleene Klass and Holly Willoughby ditch the ceremony for champagne with famous friends including Emma Bunton and Christine Lampard
Myleene Klass and Holly Willoughby ditched the National Television Awards this year, instead choosing to join a mutual friend for her birthday drinks.
The two TV personalities were spotted sipping champagne at an exclusive new restaurant whilst the rest of the entertainment industry headed to the O2 for the awards ceremony.
Ce La Vi in London opened their doors to Myleene, Holly and their friends a day before their grand opening so that the group could celebrate a birthday at the luxury restaurant. In a post on social media, former This Morning presenter Holly and Myleene showed off their friendship group, filled with other famous faces.

Former Spice Girl Emma Bunton was also at the boozy afternoon, as were Laura Whitmore, Christine Lampard, former Sugababe Heidi Range and All Saints’ Nicole and Natalie Appleton.
The group had come together to celebrate a mutual friend Shiarra Ball, the Director of Artist Relations Universal Music. In the caption of one of her posts, Myleene said: “50 years on this planet and every one of them used to spread love. We’re lucky to have you in our lives.”
Holly’s appearance at the party followed a day of raising money at the annual BGC Group Charity Day. Neither she nor Myleene attended the NTAs. Myleene was not the only Loose Women panellist to skip the event. In fact, multiple panellists chose not to attend amid cuts to ITV’s budget.
A source told the Daily Mail: “Of course, many of the panellists don’t really feel like celebrating right now, they are months away from having the show’s budget slashed and many in production set to lose their jobs.
“It just didn’t feel right for many to attend a big, red-carpet event in the midst of all this sadness.”
