Strictly Come Dancing star Helen Skelton looked absolutely flawless on Saturday as she teamed up with comedian Adam Hills for a spot of rugby reporting.

For the sporty occasion, the mother-of-three, 40, opted to don a pair of figure-flattering jeans featuring a high-rise waistline and funky flared cuffs. She teamed her dreamy denim staple with a classic blue and white pinstripe shirt, a tan leather belt and a pair of white heeled boots. Sublime!

As for accessories, the former Blue Peter presenter elevated her summer-ready ensemble with a pair of stylish sunglasses, silver hoop earrings and a cluster of silver bangles.

She wore her flowing blonde locks down loose in a side part and finished off her look with a sweep of radiant makeup. Her co-host, Adam, meanwhile, looked dapper in a charcoal grey suit, a black shirt and a pair of sporty trainers.

"Very grateful to work with such a fun team @channel4 @img @adamhillscomedy @danika_priim," Helen gushed in her caption.

"Thanks for hosting @wiganwarriorsrl thanks for grafting until the end @leighrlfc #leigh #wigan #sport #Saturday #rugby."

Fans and friends were quick to heap praise on the sports pundit, with one writing: "Those jeans and boots look ace!!" while a second chimed in: "Great coverage of the game today, always good to see you on the TV @helenskelton," followed by a red heart emoji.

Helen's moment in the limelight comes after she celebrated her milestone 40th birthday with her three adorable children in tow: Ernie, eight, Louis, six, and little Elsie.
