Tess Daly was photographed without her wedding ring as she returned to London on Monday for a work event, days after a holiday in the South of France with her estranged husband, Vernon Kay, and their daughters.

Daly, 57, attended a book launch at the Corinthia London Hotel, where she was seen without her wedding band. She wore a pale pink blazer, matching trousers, and a white tank top.

The presenter had spent time in the South of France with Kay and their daughters, Phoebe, 21, and Amber, 17. She shared photos of the trip on social media, captioning them "Last blast of South of France summer with the fam."

Fans commented positively on the family's apparent closeness, with one user writing, "Love that you’re all together, hope you’ve had an amazing time." Another user, Georgia Toffolo, commented, "Love that you all stick together. So cool and inspirational."

Last month, reports indicated that Kay had purchased a property approximately 15 minutes from the family home in Buckinghamshire. Kay, 52, is reportedly still living with Daly but is preparing to move into the new residence once renovations are complete. Sources close to the couple state that Kay is keen to remain near their daughters and Daly.

Daly and Kay announced their separation in May after 23 years of marriage. In a joint statement, they described the decision as amicable and a mutual agreement, emphasizing their commitment to their roles as parents and their continued friendship. They stated that no other parties were involved and requested privacy.

Daly's public appearance and choice to wear her wedding ring came as she supported her friend Rosie Nixon, former editor of Hello! Magazine, for the launch of her book, "The Pro Method."
