In a shockingly honest revelation that's set social media alight, television personality and fashion influencer Bec Judd has confessed to being so intoxicated during last year's Derby Day that she can barely remember the prestigious racing event.
The Champagne-Fuelled Confession
During her popular podcast 'The Style School', the 41-year-old mother-of-four dropped the bombshell while discussing upcoming spring racing fashion with co-host Monty Dimond. "I was so drunk last year at Derby Day, I don't even remember it," Judd admitted, sending her co-host into fits of laughter.
Fashion Over Memory
Despite the memory lapse, Judd could recall her stunning ensemble - a sophisticated black-and-white spotted Zimmermann dress paired with a dramatic black hat. However, the details of the actual racing event remained frustratingly elusive, lost in a haze of champagne cocktails.
"I remember getting there and I remember my outfit," she explained, "but I don't remember the actual day."
A Pattern of Racing Day Revelry
This isn't the first time Judd has been candid about her drinking habits at major racing events. She previously confessed to consuming eight espresso martinis during another Melbourne Cup event, though she maintained she wasn't drunk on that particular occasion.
Spring Racing Safety Message
Judd's confession comes with a cautionary note for this year's spring racing attendees. She emphasised the importance of pacing oneself, suggesting racegoers should "just have a couple" of drinks to ensure they can actually remember the prestigious events they're attending.
The Aftermath
The podcast episode continued with Judd and Dimond discussing practical fashion tips for the upcoming racing season, including:
- Comfortable footwear choices
- Weather-appropriate outfit planning
- The importance of sun protection
- Strategies for maintaining elegance throughout the day
While Judd's confession was delivered with her characteristic humour, it serves as a reminder that even A-list celebrities and fashion icons aren't immune to overindulging during Australia's famous spring racing carnival.
