The National Television Awards afterparties are usually known for their wild atmosphere, but this year’s event saw celebrities behaving impeccably. Notable winners like Gary Lineker and Molly-Mae Hague marked the end of the show, leading to a stream of stars making their way to the exclusive after party.
Some familiar faces, like Maura Higgins and Danny Jones, decided to skip the celebrations, possibly due to a previous BRIT Awards incident. Joining them were Molly-Mae, Olivia Attwood, Ben Shepherd, Helen Flanagan, and Maya Jama, who opted to head home after the show.
Strict entry rules governed access to the private afterparty, with attendees needing separate tickets from the main event. Upon arrival, guests exchanged their tickets for satin wristbands before gaining entry through the heavily guarded doors.
Inside the venue, guests were treated to an array of drinks like prosecco, wine, and beer, all complimentary. Additionally, the catering left no one hungry, with waiters circulating canapés before serving substantial meals like fish and chips, chicken burgers, and various boxed foods.
Surprisingly, the atmosphere at the party was subdued compared to past NTA afterparties known for their drama and intrigue. Showbiz veterans mingled comfortably, with soap stars like Bobby Brazier engaging with guests and blending in seamlessly.
Celebrities like Sam Thompson and Pete Wicks maintained a low-key presence near the bar, engaging politely with other attendees while refraining from rowdy behavior. Meanwhile, Sam’s attention seemed to gravitate towards his former flame Samie Elishi throughout the evening.
As the party wound down around 2 am, there was a noticeable decline in attendees, with many opting for an early night. Despite the calm ambiance, the event provided an exciting opportunity for newer stars like Megan Forte Clark, Connor Phillips, Yasmin Pettet, and Harry Cooksey to experience their first afterparty.
