Paula Radcliffe, 50, shows off her incredible figure in midi dress as she joins husband Gary Lough at the BBC Sports Personality of the Year Awards

Paula Radcliffe looked sensational as she attended the BBC Sports Personality of the Year Awards at MediaCityUK in Salford on Tuesday.

The three-time London Marathon winner showcased her incredible physique in a black and blue velvet midi dress which she paired with some matching heels. 

The long-distance runner, 50, flashed plenty of skin in the dress which featured a mesh panel on the side and a high leg slit. 

The star completed her look with a matching handbag as she posed beside her husband Gary Lough. 

Gary, 53, who is a former middle distance runner, appeared to smoulder in the snap as he cut a dapper figure in an all black suit.

Also attending the star-studded event was Lionness goalkeeper Mary Earps, Olympic swimmer Rebecca Addlington and Alex Scott and her girlfriend Jess Glynne. 

The winner of the BBC Sports Personality of the Year award is set to be revealed this evening. 

Mary Earps is the frontrunner to be crowned BBC Sports Personality of the Year after being named on the six-person shortlist.

The England goalkeeper, 30, is the odds-on bookies’ favourite to become the second straight Lioness to land the coveted award following Beth Mead’s triumph last year.

Known as Mary Queen of Stops, the footballer faces competition from Ashes hero Stuart Broad and world heptathlon champion Katarina Johnson-Thompson.

Veteran jockey Frankie Dettori, Europe’s Ryder Cup talisman Rory McIlroy and wheelchair tennis No1 Alfie Hewett are also nominated for the prestigious award. 

The sportsperson who tops the public vote tonight will become the 70th winner of SPOTY.
