Myleene Klass is joined by celeb pals and her family as she celebrates her MBE honour with a lavish royal-themed party
Myleene Klass celebrated her MBE honour with a lavish royal-themed party where she was joined by family and celeb pals. The radio host, 47, was honoured for her services to women's health, miscarriage awareness and charity at an investiture ceremony on Wednesday. Myleene shared a clip on Instagram showing the highlights from the afterparty - although the number one star appeared to be her son Apollo, five, who supported her throughout the event. The star couldn't look prouder of her achievement, as she was captured partying it all up with pals, including the likes of Christine Lampard, Nicole and Natalie Appleton. The stunning two-tier cake was made with a crown on top, while royal-themed photo props were spread about the room as Myleene recorded herself having fun. Cherishing her achievement, the TV star wrote a lengthy caption alongside the video: 'It takes a village… I didn't do it alone. Thank you my fam, I love you all so much.' She continued: "A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in.' Greek proverb 'We are Mamas. We do this for our babies so they'll know we are forever watching over, loving and protecting them. She concluded emotionally: 'The change in these Miscarriage and Women's health laws/models of care came too late for me and the majority of my friends and colleagues, but our children will, through our relentless work, hopefully know less heartache.' Myleene looked typically chic in a conventional all-white suit including fitting trousers and blazer - while showing off her new pin proudly. Her little man Apollo, whom she shares with her fiancé Simon Motson, looked cute in a navy suit and tie. After being presented with the medal by King Charles at Windsor Castle on Wednesday, Myleene took to her Instagram to mark her achievement in a very racy way. She stripped down to pose in her lavish clawfoot tub, wearing nothing but a sparkling tiara on her head - in a mirror image of Princess Margaret's iconic bath snap. The younger sister of Queen Elizabeth II was famously photographed by her then-husband Antony Armstrong-Jones in 1962, wearing the dazzling Poltimore tiara while soaking in the tub. Following Wednesday's investiture ceremony, she took to her Instagram to admit she was 'utterly overjoyed and humbled' to receive the honour. The former Hear'Say star was joined by her fiancé Simon Motson, son Apollo, and her two daughters, Ava, 17, and Hero, 13, who she shares with ex-husband Graham Quinn. Myleene has campaigned for paid bereavement leave to be extended to those who experience a miscarriage. The mother-of-three suffered four miscarriages and has spoken openly about the psychological effects of baby loss on women. She is an ambassador for the pregnancy and baby charity Tommy's and fronted the Bafta-nominated documentary Myleene Klass: Miscarriage And Me in 2021, in which she met women around the UK to hear their experiences. Sharing a slew of photos from Windsor Castle, Myleene wrote: 'Having my family there and our rainbow baby boy was extra magical in what has at times been a very dark journey for us all.' While she concluded her post: 'Before this and my (bafta nominated) documentary Myleene Klass: Miscarriage and Me, it did feel like no one really mentioned the dark secret of Miscarriage, the shame, the taboo, now, it's said loudly in the walls of the Palace and around Westminster. 'For the voices that were never heard, i promise you, this is just the beginning…..' In March, Myleene fought back the tears on Loose Women as they congratulated her on her MBE. At the start of the episode of the ITV show, Christine shared the news that she had been given the outstanding achievement. Myleene explained: 'It's for my services to miscarriage. 'So it feels really important, but because it is that subject matter, all that work understandably feels really sad and really heavy.' The singer has been busy working behind the scenes to help educate young boys and girls about fertility. Christine praised her highly for the work that she's doing and said to Myleene: 'Your work has been amazing. 'To hear all of these big names, including The King, seeing the word miscarriage and know it something you're working on and that we're dealing with. It's fantastic.' Myleene replied: 'You're going to make me cry!' The star is a proud mum to three kids, five-year-old son Apollo, with fiancé Simon Motson and her two daughters, Ava, 17, and Hero, 13, with her ex-husband Graham Quinn.

Myleene Klass sets pulses racing as she strips off to recreate Princess Margaret's famous steamy bathtub snap to commemorate her MBE honour
Myleene Klass channelled the late Princess Margaret on Thursday as she shared a steamy bathtub photo to celebrate receiving her MBE. The presenter, 47, was honoured for her services to women's health, miscarriage awareness and charity at an investiture ceremony on Wednesday. And after being presented with the medal by King Charles at Windsor Castle, Myleene took to her Instagram to mark her achievement in a very racy way. She stripped down to pose in her lavish clawfoot tub, wearing nothing but a sparkling tiara on her head - in a mirror image of Princess Margaret's iconic bath snap. The younger sister of Queen Elizabeth II was famously photographed by her then-husband Antony Armstrong-Jones in 1962, wearing the dazzling Poltimore tiara while soaking in the tub. Captioning her recreation snap, Myleene quipped: 'Morning! Rinse and reign.' Following Wednesday's investiture ceremony, she took to her Instagram to admit she was 'utterly overjoyed and humbled' to receive the honour. The former Hear'Say star was joined by her fiancé Simon Motson, their five-year-old son Apollo, and her two daughters, Ava, 17, and Hero, 13, who she shares with ex-husband Graham Quinn.

Talking to the BBC earlier this year, Myleene said she is 'so proud' of how far she has come and reflected on how she had battled back 'from a very dark place'. She said: 'When I think back to how all of this started, it all came from a very dark place, and I certainly didn't have it in mind to become a campaigner at the time. 'Anyone who has experienced baby loss will know how personal and difficult it is to vocalise this level of trauma.' She has championed changes to the Women's Health Strategy, advocating for earlier support for women rather than waiting until they have experienced three miscarriages. Her efforts have focused on improving miscarriage care and raising awareness about the emotional and heartbreaking toll of baby loss. The musician has used her platform to push for government reforms and has played a key role in ensuring baby loss is addressed as a critical health issue. She added: 'If you suffered three heart attacks, you wouldn't only be offered support after the third one, and so it shouldn't be the same with baby loss'. The singer's work has been widely praised for its impact on breaking the silence around miscarriage and offering hope and support to other women. Myleene has been working with MP Sarah Owen, MP Olivia Blake, Miscarriage Association, and Tommys for a law to be introduced so that women and their partners would be able to take leave. In March, the star fought back the tears on Loose Women as they congratulated her on her MBE. Myleene explained: 'It's for my services to miscarriage. So it feels really important, but because it is that subject matter, all that work understandably feels really sad and really heavy.' While she admitted she was close to tears, as host Christine Lampard then praised her highly for all she's achieved, gushing: 'Your work has been amazing. To hear all of these big names, including The King, seeing the word miscarriage and know it something you're working on and that we're dealing with. It's fantastic'.

Myleene Klass celebrated receiving her MBE with a bash at Gymkhana in London on Wednesday where she was joined by celeb pals Christine Lampard and Nicole and Natalie Appleton. The former Hear'Say star, 47, who was honoured for her services to women's health, miscarriage awareness and charity, looked incredible in a crisp white power suit layered over a pale pink lace cami. She added a touch of height with white pointed heels and proudly sported her red MBE brooch during the stylish celebrations. TV presenter Christine, 46, looked effortlessly elegant in a black halterneck maxi dress teamed with black open-toe heels, as she posed alongside her close friend. Also showing their support were former All Saints singers Nicole and Natalie Appleton. Natalie, 52, oozed sophistication in a baby pink paisley-print dress paired with striking orange platform heels. Her younger sister Nicole, 50, opted for a more laid-back look, teaming a white graphic-print tee with a cream blazer and wide-leg blue denim jeans. Myleene's daughter, Ava Bailey Quinn, 17, also joined the celebrations. She donned a red rose-print dress as she beamed with pride next to her mum.
