Tess Daly has been supported by fans as she said she was left 'very humbled'. The presenter is back in the Strictly Come Dancing ballroom after the BBC One dance contest returned for its 2024 series.

However, away from hosting the hit show alongside Claudia Winkleman, Tess is busy working on other projects including her business Naia Beach, which she launched in 2021 alongside her long-time friend Gayle Lawton.

And the work is seemingly paying off as the swimwear brand picked up the 'Best New Brand of the Year' award at the Drapers Independents Awards 2024.
