Reality stars, ex-footballers and TV presenters were among the glamorous elite stepping foot in Ascot on Tuesday for a sophisticated afternoon of horseracing.

The five-day occasion is held annually at Ascot Racecourse and the venue in Berkshire attracts members of the Royal Family each year.

Ascot, which like other horseracing events has historically been the subject of concern by animal rights activists, though states that the welfare of horses and jockeys is "paramount," often attracts attention over the fashion on display. Attendees, including celebrity guests, have been known to showcase their outfits at the venue.

Guests at the event this week have included reality TV star Tasha Ghouri, 25. The model, who reached the final of Love Island in 2022, posed for photos at the venue. She was seen wearing a biege dress that she accompanied with a lilac feathered hat. Tasha opted to wear a pair of sparkly heels.

TV presenter Charlotte Hawkins, 49 - who is best known as one of the hosts of Good Morning Britain - has also been spotted at the racecourse. She was photographed in a red dress that she accessorised with a matching hat. Charlotte modelled a pair of red heels for the occasion this week too.

And it's not the first time that Charlotte has attended Royal Ascot. She's been seen at the annual event on several occasions over the years, including having been among the celebrities who were in attendance at last year's launch.
