Stars add sparkle to charity ball
IT’S one of the most glittering nights on the fund-raising calendar and The Real Housewives of Cheshire’s Dawn Ward was joined by a host of stars at her 10th annual Creme de la Creme Ball.
It was a who’s who of reality TV as The Only Way Is Essex icon Gemma Collins and Love Island stars Gabby Allen, Kendall Rae Knight, Laura Anderson and TyneLexy Clarson flocked to Warford Hall in Cheshire along with Dawn’s Real Housewives co-stars.
Dawn and her husband Ashley threw the doors open to their lavish home to welcome VIPs for a The Greatest Showman theme spectacular.
Former beauty queen Kendall, also from last year’s Love Island, smiled for the cameras in a sheer silver dress.
Dawn’s pal Gemma, who is a regular visitor up north to see the Real Housewives star, turned heads in a dramatic floral pattern black gown.
Dawn was also joined by favourites from the Channel Four soap Hollyoaks – Gemma Merna, who played Carmel McQueen, Kieron Richardson who plays Ste Hay, Nikki Sanderson who plays Maxine Minniver, Stephanie Waring who plays Cindy Cunningham and Ross Adams who plays Scott Drinkwell with his husband Phil Crusham.
The ball was founded in 2009 following the premature birth of Dawn and Ashley’s youngest child Aston, who subsequently contracted meningitis.
Reality TV star Dawn felt so indebted to the health professionals who looked after Aston she wanted the event to raise vital funds for a series of related charities.
