Tess Daly and Claudia Winkleman brought their signature glamour to the stage as they hosted the seventh week of BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing this Saturday.

The duo, who have recently announced they will step down from the show after this season wraps up, took a moment to capture some stunning photos backstage.

Both presenters chose sleek all-black ensembles for the evening. Tess dazzled in a form-fitting halterneck dress, while Claudia shone in an eye-catching sequined outfit.

At 56, Tess completed her elegant look with classic stiletto heels and styled her hair into soft, flowing curls.

Meanwhile, 53-year-old Claudia paired a sparkling blouse with matching trousers, adding a touch of gold jewelry for a chic finish.

The duo have been presenting the show together since 2014, when The Traitors host took over from Bruce Forsyth, but this year will be their last series.

During the episode, Vicky Pattison was left gobsmacked when she topped the leaderboard. 

It proved to be a very emotional night for Vicky, who stunned the judges with her ‘immaculate’ Tango to The Fate of Ophelia by Taylor Swift. 

The TV personality and her professional partner Kai Widdrington were awarded a huge 39 points, Anton Du Beke was left lost for words. 

‘You’re line is the best line I have ever seen, ever! It was immaculate. I’m a bit stunned it was that good!’, he exclaimed. 

While Craig Revel Horwood teased Vicky over her arm placement, even he admitted: ‘But… a part from that it was perfect.’

Meanwhile, Harry Aikines-Aryeetey found himself at the bottom with 26 points after he danced the Samba to Samba by Gloria Estefan with his partner Karen Hauer. 

Speculation has already begun as to who will take their place, with names including current Strictly contestant La Voix and It Takes Two’s Zoe Ball thrown into the mix.

Tess and Claudia’s surprise departure was confirmed last month on their respective social media platforms, which both included a video of the pair announcing their decision to step down.

Speaking to the camera, Claudia began: ‘There have been some rumblings and we want you to hear this from us.’

Tess chimed in: ‘We have news, after 21 wonderfully joyful years on Strictly, we have decided that the time is right to step aside and pass over the baton.’

‘The very sparkly baton!’ Claudia laughed, before turning to her co-star and pal to add: ‘You’ve been here since the beginning.’

Tess replied, pointing to Claudia: ‘With Bruce, lovely Bruce [Forsyth], and that was over two decades ago but a lot of the time has been with you. 

‘It’s been a huge part of our lives since our children were literally babes in arms, and now they’re adults, and I think genuinely we have cherished every second.’

Claudia continued: ‘We have, we’re so lucky to have been part of this amazing show and we just want to thank the Strictly team, because Strictly is the people who make it.’
