The  TV presenter, 50, admitted the This Morning team had been ‘humbled’ as they missed out on the award the last two years.

Although Cat Deeley and Ben Shephard are the main presenters, it was Friday host Alison who stepped up to the microphone first as they accepted the award.

‘Natural order has been restored,’ she said. ‘Can we just say a massive thank you to each and every person who voted for This Morning. We are so overwhelmed.

‘This award means so much. We’ve been humbled the last two years, we haven’t won this award. We don’t take it lightly that we won this award, we’re so grateful.’

Cat also took to the microphone and said: ‘We are so lucky to get to do this show, we all love it. Every single person who comes on, we love this show and it’s like having a family.’

Ben and Cat looked thrilled as they posed with their award in then press room

The Chase won the Daytime Award at the 2024 ceremony while The Repair Shop won in 2023.

Cat was pictured with a ring on her wedding finger as she walked the red carpet jjust weeks after announcing her split from Patrick Kielty.

Cat, 48, and Patrick, 54, who have two boys together, announced the end of their marriage in July in a joint statement – insisting ‘no other party’ was involved.

A diamond wedding ring was in clear view on her left hand as she boasted a big smile while posing for pictures at the O2 Arena in London.

Cat had previously been snapped with her wedding ring off as she opted to swap the dazzling rock to her right hand in a pointed gesture that seemingly symbolised her new life chapter.

The outfit, which featured a one-shoulder neckline, showed off her slim physique.

Meanwhile, her This Morning co-host Ben Shephard wore a dark rich green velvet dinner jacket for the awards.

Last month Cat’s estranged husband Patrick was spotted on a trip to the shops near the former couple’s home in London buying a bottle of red wine.

It was the first time he had been pictured since their split was confirmed.

He then broke his silence as he returned to his BBC Radio 5 Live show.

In a jovial mood upon his return to the airwaves Patrick joked about being overlooked for the role of Match of the Day host, following Mark Chapman, Gabby Logan and Kelly Cates replacing Gary Lineker.

He laughed: ‘It’s lovely to be back. We are coming to you from sunny Belfast and we’ve got Michael Andrew looking after things here. We’ve got Sammy and Craig looking after things in London.

‘It takes a village folks to make this show sound so average, but it is not just me who is back, Oh no, what is this? It is a little welcome back letter from the head of the BBC’.

Patrick’s family are still seething with Cat over her failure to attend his beloved mother’s funeral – and say they knew at that moment their marriage was over for good.

Her ‘no show’ back in March has left deep emotional scars within the Kielty family who say it confirmed for them that there was little chance of a reconciliation between the two.

Announcing their separation, Cat and Patrick said: ‘We have taken the decision to end our marriage and are now separated. There is no other party involved.

‘We will continue to be united as loving parents to our children and would therefore kindly ask for our family privacy to be respected. There will be no further comment.’
