The Purr-fect date night! Braless Cat Deeley shimmers in plunging scarlet gown as she cosies up to husband Patrick Kielty at pre-Emmys bash

They first met as co-presenters on BBC's Fame Academy 15 years ago, enjoying a friendship that blossomed into love and subsequent marriage. 

And Cat Deeley and Patrick Kielty, who tied the knot in 2012, showed they're still as smitten as ever as they stepped out together for an Audi-sponsored pre-Emmy party at Dream Hotel's The Highlight Room in Los Angeles on Thursday night.

Looking ravishing in a plunging sequinned red dress - under which she went braless - West Midlands native Cat, 40, beamed as she received a loving hug from her 46-year-old Northern Irish husband, who cut a dapper figure in a midnight blue suit.
