Davina McCall and Hannah Cooper Twin in Norma Kamali at 2026 BRIT Awards
In a delightful fashion coincidence, television presenter Davina McCall and model Hannah Cooper were spotted wearing the same outfit at the 2026 BRIT Awards on Saturday night. The duo, rather than being embarrassed, embraced the moment with smiles and camaraderie as they posed for an Instagram snap together at the star-studded event held at the Co-Op Arena in Manchester.
Identical Dresses with Personal Styling Touches
Both women chose a black and nude mesh striped design by renowned fashion designer Norma Kamali. Davina McCall, aged 58, opted for the minidress version, showcasing a very leggy display. She styled her figure-hugging number with a pair of chic black ankle boots and fingerless gloves, adding a touch of edgy sophistication to her look.
Meanwhile, Hannah Cooper, who is 37 and pregnant with her second child, selected the long striped mesh maxi skirt variation of the same dress. She paired it with elegant black stilettos, creating a flowing and graceful silhouette. The model is married to comedian Joel Dommett and already shares a son named Wilde with him.
A Heartwarming Moment Captured on Social Media
The pair were all smiles as they posed together, with Davina playfully cradling Hannah's growing baby bump before taking their seats for the ceremony, which was hosted by Jack Whitehall. Davina later shared the photo on Instagram, penning a heartfelt caption: 'If this isn't magical.... I love you @hannah_cooper_ FACT'. This gesture highlighted their friendly bond and positive reaction to the fashion twinning incident.
Red Carpet Appearances and Family Insights
Earlier in the evening, Hannah Cooper hit the red carpet with her husband Joel Dommett, presenting a united front ahead of the awards. Davina McCall, on the other hand, made a loved-up appearance with her husband, celebrity hairdresser Michael Douglas, aged 49. The couple, who secretly wed in a low-key ceremony in December 2025, could not keep their hands off each other, showcasing their affection publicly.
In related family news, Davina's daughter Tilly Robertson recently revealed her mother's supportive reaction to her getting a tattoo. Tilly uploaded a TikTok video showing a chat with Davina, where the TV presenter mouthed 'Oh, it's lovely' upon seeing the new inking, which appeared to be on Tilly's lower back. Tilly captioned the video, praising her mother as the 'chillest mum ever' for her supportive attitude.
Davina's Views on Parenting and Empty Nest Syndrome
Davina McCall, who is mother to Holly (24), Tilly (22), and Chester (19) with her ex-husband Matthew Robertson, has spoken openly about modern parenting challenges. She noted that fewer parents are suffering from 'empty nest syndrome' today due to rising house costs, which often lead children to stay at home longer or return frequently.
She described her children as part of the 'boomerang generation', explaining that after initially leaving for university, they tend to come back to the parental home more often than in the past. Davina expressed comfort in this trend, stating, 'I guess nowadays the proper empty nesting thing doesn't happen as much as it used to. I feel like kids come back all the time.'
She shared examples: her daughter returning from Australia for four months, Holly visiting from Manchester often, and Chester still at home while taking a year out before university. Davina added, 'I get to still really enjoy the kids but also enjoy a little bit of freedom again. I feel in a really nice place.'
On the Happy Mum Happy Baby podcast, Davina reflected on her parenting philosophy, saying her goal is for her children to walk away confidently and live their lives independently, without fear or clinging dependency. This balanced perspective underscores her approach to family life amidst her busy career and public appearances.
