Taking to Instagram, the mother-of-two, 38, posted a carousel of joyous snapshots from Saturday evening– and wow did she look amazing!
For the special occasion, Helen turned heads in a silky, mint green midi dress emblazoned with delicate white flowers. She accessorised with a sparkly yellow gemstone necklace, a slinky bracelet and a pair of simple pearl earrings.

In the latest series, fans finally saw his partner's character, Trixie Franklin, walk down the aisle. Of his reaction to Helen's on-screen happiness, Jack added: "I'm pleased Trixie tied the knot last series. Trixie's far too beautiful not to have a husband!"

The couple are doting parents to two adorable daughters: Five-year-old Wren Ivy and one-year-old baby girl, Lark.
Whilst the TV star is incredibly private about her family life, she occasionally shares the sweetest photos of her little ones at home or exploring the great outdoors. Most recently, Helen melted hearts with a carousel of sun-soaked photos featuring her eldest daughter, Wren.
Captioning the images, Helen wrote: "Finding the sun. A restorative 24 hrs with my favourites".
