Strictly’s Helen Skelton is all smiles as she’s helped into a taxi by friend as she leaves awards ceremony
STRICTLY Come Dancing star Helen Skelton needed a helping hand as she got into a taxi in her long green dress after the Pride of Britain awards.
The mum-of-three enjoyed a rare night out at the bash which celebrates everyday people doing incredible things for others.
The Blue Peter and Countryfile presenter looked amazing in a backless green dress and high heels.
And after a night of of mingling with her fellow glamorous celebs on the red carpet, Helen, 39, made a beeline for a cab.
The star was still smiling as she climbed onto the backseat and appeared to tip over on her heels.

“It’s funny to think about it now, because everything that’s followed after and where we find ourselves now, all came from that initial conversation.”
