Tess Daly is all smiles as she steps out for first time after husband Vernon Kay's sex text scandal

I will survive: A defiant, but happy Tess Daly arrives for work at a central London media studio today


A smiling Tess Daly stepped out for the first time today since news of her husband Vernon Kay's sex text scandal broke.


There was no sign of the strain the Strictly Come Dancing presenter has been under in recent days as she arrived at media studio in central London.

Looking slim and glowing in a pair of grey skinny jeans, dark grey blazer and cream scarf, Daly was still wearing her wedding ring as she headed into the Scramble offices in Soho.

Today marked the first time Daly, 38, had been seen in public since the revelations emerged exactly a week ago.

Family Fortunes host Kay admitted he had made 'foolish decisions' after it was revealed he had exchanged racy messages via text and Twitter with glamour model Rhian Sugden and four other girls.

The father-of-two, 35, publicly apologised to his wife and family on his BBC Radio 1 show over the weekend.

He told listeners: 'I've disappointed and let down my family and for that I am very sorry.'

Kay admitted he had sent the messages as 'harmless banter', but had realised it was inappropriate conduct for a married man.

The timing of the revelations couldn't come as at a worst time for Daly, who is releasing a parenting book.


The 'humiliated' presenter had cancelled several TV talk show appearances to plug her book in light of the revelations.

A spokeswoman for the star has confirmed that she will be ‘taking some time out’ instead.

A friend to the former model said she was 'shattered' by Kay's admissions.

The pal said: 'Tess is still furious with Vern and he has a lot of explaining to do.

She hopes that now he has confessed it will be the end of it, but it’s still very painful for her.

‘She has been humiliated by someone she loves dearly and the timing could not be worse.

The mother-of-two had been booked for The One Show and This Morning next week and was due to sign copies of her book The Baby Diaries: Memories, Milestones and Misadventures at a London show us well as the Baby Show at the ExCel.

Kay and Daly have been married for six years and are seen by many to have one of the strongest marriages in showbusiness.

The couple, who live in a sprawling country mansion in Beaconsfield, have two daughters, Phoebe, five, and nine-month-old Amber.
