Gemma Collins celebrates Cheltenham Festival win by sharing kiss with Danny Dyer

Gemma Collins and Danny Dyer were seen in high spirits during the penultimate day of the Cheltenham Festival. The annual event, which began earlier this week in Cheltenham, is set to conclude tomorrow and has attracted a host of celebrities to the Cheltenham Racecourse.

Former EastEnders actor Danny, 47, was among today's attendees at the racecourse. He appeared to be thoroughly enjoying himself in the Paddy Power suite this morning, mingling with the likes of Gemma, 44, and Peter Crouch, 44.

Danny and Gemma were spotted engrossed in the day's second race together, sipping drinks in the suite. Photos show reality TV star Gemma holding a champagne flute and some tickets, while actor Danny chose a pint glass.

The pair seemed to be having a fantastic time as they clinked glasses at one point during the event. One image captures them observing the racecourse from an elevated position at the venue.

Another photo taken today shows Danny giving Gemma a friendly peck on the cheek in the box, according to the Mirror, reports Gloucestershire Live.

Danny, who was spotted with a cigarette on the suite's balcony, donned a grey suit for the festival. His outfit also included a blue shirt, and he accessorised with a pair of glasses while soaking up the Cheltenham sunshine.

Ex-TOWIE star Gemma turned heads in a sophisticated pale outfit at today's events, donning a sleek top and trouser combo topped with an elegant matching cape. She rounded off her look with a chic fascinator boasting a striking bow feature.

This afternoon on Instagram, Gemma showcased her Cheltenham style in a fresh post, expressing her delight to be associated with [Paddy Power] to her multitude of followers.

She also didn't miss the chance to acknowledge both the festival and the Jockey Club, tagging them in her fashion-forward update. Her ensemble was met with praise in the Instagram comments, with one fan writing: "Wow love this on you."

Another quickly chimed in with: "Absolutely stunning."

A third admiringly responded: "Absolutely beautiful Gemma. Have a lovely weekend."

Despite the compliments, not everyone approved, as one critic noted: "Supporting horse racing? In 2025? Girl..." Also, a sceptical comment arose: "Wait a minute aren't you an animal rights activist."
