After the success of I’m A Celebrity last year, Scarlett Moffatt is preparing for her first ever presenting gig which sees her team up with Dermot O'Leary to host this year's National Television Awards. Taking to her social media sites on Wednesday, just hours before the ceremony, the 26-year-old shared a behind-the-scenes picture with her co-host.

Looking relatively low-key, the Gogglebox star appeared to be in relaxed spirits in the snap, which was simply captioned: “@radioleary the day has arrived #ntas.” She also shared another photo of her backstage door. She gushed: “@OfficialNTAs wow wow wow!! Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think I would have my own dressing room at the 02. Backstage presenting & head of social media!! I can't believe it #ntas #dream”

When news of her presenting gig was first announced a few weeks ago, Scarlett tweeted her delight, telling fans: "So excited! I’m hosting backstage at the @OfficialNTAs I can't wait! "I've never even been to an awards ceremony never mind help host one!"

It seems the reality TV star’s career is really taking off as she recently landed a role on two big new shows for Channel 4. One is an as-yet-unnamed entertainment series that she will co-host with comedian Alan Carr, while the other is already familiar to TV viewers - a reboot of TV dating show Streetmate.

"I can't believe Channel 4 have asked me to present this iconic show," Scarlett said of her new hosting job. "I remember watching Davina on Streetmate when I was younger and thinking, 'Females can present entertainment shows too. I want to do that when I am older.' It's such a fun show and it's two of my favourite things to do; chat to randomers and a love story."
