Michelle Dockery's Secret Baby Bump Revealed at Downton Abbey Premiere!
DOWNTON ABBEY PREMIERE AFTERPARTY: MICHELLE DOCKERY SHOWCASES HER GROWING BABY BUMP WHILE NADIYA BYCHKOVA RECOVERS FROM HOSPITAL VISIT
The highly anticipated Downton Abbey premiere afterparty was the place to be seen last night, and thescholarlynote.com has all the juicy details. The evening's A-list attendees included Michelle Dockery, who stunned in a powder blue off-the-shoulder ballgown as she showcased her growing baby bump on the red carpet.
The 43-year-old actress, known for her iconic portrayal of Lady Mary Crawley in the beloved period drama, was joined by her husband, film producer Jasper Waller-Bridge, 37. The happy couple announced their exciting news to the world, and we can't help but wonder what the future holds for this stylish duo.
As Michelle walked the red carpet at the Odeon Luxe in Leicester Square, she donned a fitted bodice that accentuated her growing bump. Her stunning outfit was the epitome of elegance, and it's no surprise that she's one of the most beloved actresses on British television.
But the real drama unfolded earlier this week when Strictly Come Dancing star Nadiya Bychkova fell and injured her back during rehearsals. The 36-year-old beauty queen was rushed to hospital, where she received an x-ray and was given the all-clear. However, we can't help but wonder what really happened in those tense moments leading up to her visit.
According to sources close to Nadiya, the Strictly star was training in north London when she took a nasty fall, landing on her back with a thud. The accident left her in agony, and crew members were forced to phone an ambulance to get her the medical attention she needed.
In a heartfelt post on social media, Nadiya updated her fans on her condition, revealing that she's now undergoing physiotherapy to get back on her feet – or rather, her dancing shoes. "Well… where do I start? What a 24 hours! Thank you so much for all the messages, love and support," she wrote.
"I'm smiling in the picture [attached], but it was really scary and there were a few tears as I had to lie still for hours, but I was given the all-clear after an x-ray and allowed to go home. I've got some physio today, but I will be back on that dance floor soon and I'll be ready to shine and sparkle in the new series of the biggest show on TV."
Nadiya's Strictly co-star Neil Jones was spotted leaving the premiere last night, looking dapper in a navy suit. The perfect gentleman that he is, he even gave his jacket to partner Chyna Mills, demonstrating the chivalry that we've come to expect from these talented dancers.
Other stars who attended the afterparty included Verity Bowditch, who wowed in a brown asymmetric gown, and Emma Walsh, who donned a black off-the-shoulder gown. But it was Michelle Dockery's baby bump that stole the show, leaving us all wondering what this exciting new chapter will bring for the talented actress.
As we bid farewell to Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale, one thing is certain – these beautiful stars will continue to dazzle us on and off the screen. Stay tuned for more updates from the world of entertainment!
