Susanna Reid wows in 'bright and summery' dress that has £50 off

Daily Mirror4 days ago
Susanna Reid has been wowing Good Morning Britain viewers with her fashion choices of late - and her latest is a big hit with fans and fashion experts alike
Susanna Reid brought a burst of colour to the Good Morning Britain set this week, stepping out in a red midi dress that caught the attention of viewers and fashion fans alike. The dress, from Karen Millen, is a striking formal number, ideal for the office, the races, weddings and more - and I've found a way to get a £50 discount on the 'gorgeous' ensemble.
The Compact Stretch Tab Detail Full Skirted Midi Dress is bang on trend for summer 2025 in a bold, warm, tomato red shade, perfect for brightening up your daytime dressing. Popular last year, the colour has made a strong return to fashion trends this season - Cat Deeley has also proven to be a fan of the hue in recent weeks.
The Karen Millen dress is said to 'combine sophisticated structure with everyday wearability'. It boasts a tailored bodice with a crisp collar and full, flowing skirt, creating a 'feminine yet functional' silhouette.
Made in a comfortable stretch fabric, it's designed to ensure 'you'll feel as good as you look ', with the bonus of added side pockets for a practical touch. It's said to be 'perfect for family gatherings, gallery visits, or lunch dates', but equally, could be dressed down with a crossbody bag and minimal jewellery for casual settings, the brand suggests.
Retailing at £259 at Karen Millen, a quick price check revealed that it's actually on offer at Debenhams for £207.20, saving more than £50. The frock has sparked plenty of conversation online, especially after Susanna posted the look to Instagram.
The presenter shared a snap of the outfit, where fans were quick to praise the look, with comments like: 'Love this dress, the colour looks fabulous on you.' Another person said: 'Very bright and summery - gorgeous,' while a third wrote: 'Wow, suits your figure well - looking gorgeous as always.'
Of course, not everyone was on board, with one follower calling it 'another granny dress,' while a second echoed: 'Wish you would stop wearing granny's dresses.'
Elsewhere, M&S is stocking this Pure Cotton Midi Shirt Dress from Finery for £49. It's crafted from pure cotton fabric for a crisp, cool look ideal for summer, while an elasticated waistband ensures a comfortable and 'flattering' silhouette.
Alternatively, at celebrity-lived Nobody's Child, the Red Starlight Midi Dres s is currently on offer for £72.25 down from £85. It also comes in a range of other colours if red isn't your vibe.
For those not sold by the red Karen Millen frock, that too comes in a few different colours, including navy, white and hot pink. So for those into soft neutrals or summer brights, there's a version to suit.
Susanna seemingly loves a red dress, having worn the Bright Red Puff Sleeve Midi Dress from Next, £36, earlier in the month. The 53-year-old presenter said in the caption of her post: "LOVE for this red dress @nextofficial."
The midi-length number features an elegant high neck, short puff sleeves and a gathered waist, forming a flattering silhouette. It's made from a smooth material that looks light and breezy enough for warm temperatures.
And in June, she wore this Whistles' figure-hugging Green Brushwork Print Mesh Dress that fans went wild for. On Instagram Susanna's post was flooded with comments like 'sooo beautiful!! love the colour' and 'Loving the green dress,' cementing it as one of the host's best looks to date.
It's currently on sale with a huge £100 off. Originally priced at £159, it's now available for £59. Josie Gibson has also been spotted in this dress last year.
But if it's Susanna's bold scarlet number that's taken your fancy, shoppers can currently save almost £52 on it here at Debenhams.

MasterChef's John Torode confirms he was accused of racism in Wallace review

The report, commissioned by MasterChef production company Banijay UK and led by law firm Lewis Silkin, found 45 out of 83 allegations against Wallace were substantiated, alongside two standalone allegations made against other people, including one for using racist language. In a post on Instagram, Torode confirmed he was the person alleged to have used racist language but said he had 'no recollection of the incident' and was 'shocked and saddened' by the allegation. A post shared by John Torode (@johntorodecooks) His statement said: 'Following publication of the Executive Summary of the investigation into Gregg Wallace while working on MasterChef, I am aware of speculation that I am one of the two other individuals against whom an allegation has been upheld. 'For the sake of transparency, I confirm that I am the individual who is alleged to have used racial language on one occasion. 'The allegation is that I did so sometime in 2018 or 2019, in a social situation, and that the person I was speaking with did not believe that it was intended in a malicious way and that I apologised immediately afterwards. 'I have absolutely no recollection of any of this, and I do not believe that it happened. However, I want to be clear that I've always had the view that any racial language is wholly unacceptable in any environment. 'I'm shocked and saddened by the allegation as I would never wish to cause anyone any offence.' Reports in The Sun said Torode had been asked to leave the show and claim he had mental health issues following the allegation. It comes after Wallace said he was 'deeply sorry for any distress caused' and that he 'never set out to harm or humiliate' in the wake of the report, which included one allegation of 'unwelcome physical contact' that was upheld. In November 2024, the show's production company, Banijay UK, announced that Wallace, 60, would step away from his role on MasterChef while historical allegations of misconduct were investigated. In a statement to the PA news agency, he said: 'For eight months, my family and I have lived under a cloud. Trial by media, fuelled by rumour and clickbait. 'None of the serious allegations against me were upheld. I challenged the remaining issue of unwanted touching but have had to accept a difference in perception, and I am deeply sorry for any distress caused. It was never intended.' The report found that the 'majority of the allegations against Mr Wallace (94%) related to behaviour which is said to have occurred between 2005 and 2018', with only one allegation substantiated after 2018. It also concluded that the 'majority of the substantiated allegations against Mr Wallace related to inappropriate sexual language and humour', adding that 'a smaller number of allegations of other inappropriate language and being in a state of undress were also substantiated'. The report noted that during the course of the investigation, which was over a seven-month period, Wallace was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, and said that the findings should be viewed in the context of his neurodiversity. In his statement, Wallace added: 'I'm relieved that the Banijay report fully recognises that my behaviour changed profoundly in 2018. Some of my humour and language missed the mark. I never set out to harm or humiliate. I always tried to bring warmth and support to MasterChef, on screen and off. 'After nearly 20 years on the show, I now see that certain patterns, shaped by traits I've only recently begun to understand, may have been misread. I also accept that more could have been done, by others and by myself, to address concerns earlier. 'A late autism diagnosis has helped me understand how I communicate and how I'm perceived. I'm still learning.' He praised the show's production company, Banijay, saying they had 'given me great support, and I thank them'. The former greengrocer added: 'There will be more casualties if the BBC continues down this path, where protecting its legacy matters more than protecting people. For my part, with full legal support, I will consider my next move.' Banijay UK said that 'Wallace's return to MasterChef (is) untenable' following the number of sustained allegations. Patrick Holland, chief executive of Banijay UK, said that while the report 'makes for uncomfortable reading', it also provided 'valuable insight to ensure that going forward everyone working on our productions feels safe and supported, and that inappropriate behaviour is quickly and professionally dealt with'. The BBC also said it has 'informed' Wallace that it has 'no plans to work with him in future', adding in a statement: 'This behaviour falls below the values of the BBC and the expectations we have for anyone who works with or for us. 'Although the full extent of these issues were not known at the relevant time, opportunities were missed to address this behaviour, both by the production companies running MasterChef and the BBC. We accept more could and should have been done sooner.' The BBC also addressed the future of a series of MasterChef filmed last year which has not yet been aired, saying it had not made a final decision on broadcasting it. Last year, a BBC News investigation revealed a string of allegations of inappropriate sexual comments and alleged inappropriate behaviour against Wallace by 13 people who worked with him across a range of shows over a 17-year period, including former Newsnight host Kirsty Wark. A statement from Wallace's lawyers at the time said that it 'is entirely false that he engages in behaviour of a sexually harassing nature', as reported by BBC News. Ahead of the official publishing of the external review, Wallace claimed in an Instagram post on July 8, which appears to have been taken down, that he had been cleared of the 'most serious and sensational accusations' against him. The BBC has been approached for comment.

John Torode says allegation of using racist language upheld in MasterChef review

MasterChef presenter John Torode has confirmed he is the subject of an allegation of using racist language that was upheld as part of a review into the behaviour of his co-presenter Gregg Wallace. The report, commissioned by MasterChef production company Banijay and led by law firm Lewis Silkin, found 45 out of 83 allegations against Wallace were substantiated, alongside two standalone allegations made against other people, including one for using racist language. In a post on Instagram, Torode confirmed he was the person alleged to have used racist language but said he had 'no recollection of the incident' and was 'shocked and saddened' by the allegation. His statement said: 'Following publication of the Executive Summary of the investigation into Gregg Wallace while working on MasterChef, I am aware of speculation that I am one of the two other individuals against whom an allegation has been upheld. 'For the sake of transparency, I confirm that I am the individual who is alleged to have used racial language on one occasion.

However, I want to be clear that I've always had the view that any racial language is wholly unacceptable in any environment. I'm shocked and saddened by the allegation as I would never wish to cause anyone any offence.' On Monday, an investigation into the conduct of Gregg Wallace said more than 40 allegations of inappropriate behaviour were "found to be substantiated", including inappropriate sexual language, being in a state of undress and one incident of "unwelcome physical contact". Wallace stepped back from presenting the BBC show in November 2024 after several historical allegations were disclosed.
