Susanna Reid hinted at the emotional rollercoaster she has recently experienced as she accepted her award for Newsreader Of The Year at the TRIC Awards.
Speaking about the win, Susanna took to the stage and admitted: 'Well, it's been a couple of weeks and this is definitely a highlight.'
The 43-year-old star looked stunning in the beaded black dress as she posed outside Grovesnor House ahead of the ceremony.

Strutting her stuff: Susanna's dress also featured a split on the thigh
She continued: 'Obviously you know things have been changing in my life but this (the award) is all down to one team and that's the team at BBC Breakfast who have been utterly brilliant.
'I have the privilege of being the main presenter of the programme since the move to Salford. It's a fantastic team. I have been lucky enough to present with Charlie and Bill (Turnbull).
'This award is not about me but is testament to all the work that everyone else puts in... the chemistry you have with your co-presenters... it's a huge thank you to them.'
And in the emotional speech she also thanked Breakfast's 'late editor Alison Ford who took a risk on me'.
It really is all change for mother of three sons Susanna who split from long-term partner Dominic Cotton earlier this month, and is gearing up for her debut on ITV's Good Morning Britain.
Flawless: Susanna's hair and make-up looked immaculate for the awards
And it appears that now that she's leaving the BBC, Susanna has decided to up the sex factor, and as she posed up in the risqué outfit at the TRIC Awards.
Susanna's dress featured a cut-out detail on the front, meaning she was able to flash just a hint of her black underwear beneath.
The pretty brunette teamed the embellished dress with a beige blazer, strappy silver sandals and hoop earrings.
The former BBC Breakfast host and Strictly Come Dancing runner-up beat BBC newsreader Fiona Bruce and Daybreak's Lorraine Kelly to the newsreader gong.

Susanna tweeted: 'Thank-you for your messages. I'm very excited to be joining Good Morning Britain. I have loved being at BBC Breakfast & will miss the team.
