Cat Deeley has shared a playful and heartfelt birthday tribute to her best friend, wedding dress designer Charlie Brear, posting a photo of the pair sharing a kiss on the lips. The touching black-and-white snap was accompanied by a caption that read, “Happy Birthday. Forever and day. Ride or die.”

Charlie, who had previously posted the same photo to her Instagram in April 2021, also shared their close bond with her followers. The two friends have remained close through the years, and their playful gesture captures their deep friendship.
Cat Deeley recently returned to This Morning after a brief and unexplained absence, with Angela Scanlon and Alison Hammond stepping in for her. She had spent her time off in a luxurious snowy location, sharing cheeky behind-the-scenes videos with her fans on Instagram, hinting at a new work project.

Cat has been balancing work with parenting her two sons, Milo and James, as well as maintaining strong connections with friends and family. She also shared a 2025 highlights reel, expressing how much fun her year had been despite personal challenges, including her split from husband Patrick Kielty.

The couple announced their divorce in July 2025 after 13 years of marriage, but they remain united as parents. Despite the emotional year, Cat’s support network of friends, like Charlie, has helped her move forward with positivity.
