Meanwhile Phoebe opted for a burgundy midi-dress featuring sequined fabric and spaghetti straps.
'Such a treat having you at the show last night @phoebeekay can't believe you've been coming for 21 years; your entire life,' Tess wrote.
And taking to the comments, her fans thought Phoebe would be the best person to take on the presenting role after her mother leaves.
They wrote: 'Isn't she the right person to take over from you if she's been watching you for 21 years ❤️,';
'@tessdaly could you imagine how cool it would be if @phoebeekay hosted @bbcstrictly next ❤️ daughter following mom footsteps ❤️,';

She appears to be a natural at handling her growing celebrity status - as the jet-setting university student juggles her studies with red carpet appearances, and glamorous family holidays.
But Phoebe previously admitted she would rather work behind the camera and leave presenting to her parents, explaining: 'I like the production and editing side.
'I'd love to act, but will leave presenting to my mum and dad. I'm just trying to understand what I want to do.
'I think you go to uni to figure out what you want to do in life. I'd like to do some work experience, as it's hands-on, even if I start as a runner and work my way up.'
Her parents felt it was best to keep Phoebe and her younger sister, Amber, now 15, shielded from the celebrity world until they could decide whether they 'wanted to be in the spotlight or not', Vernon added.
'Phoebe is very mature,' he continued. 'I've got confidence she will know how to deal with it.'
Vernon took to social media last month as he wished his 21-year-old daughter a Happy Birthday

Phoebe has also taken on the role as an influencer as she documents her enviable lifestyle to a steadily rising follower base.
She made her red carpet debut much later than other nepo babies - waiting until 2023 when she attended the movie premiere of John Wick Chapter 4 in London's Leicester Square.
Phoebe, then 18, looked stylish in a white draped shirt with a pair of shiny black pleather trousers as she walked arm-in-arm with her father, Vernon.
‘I don’t even know why it’s happening…’: Katie Price shows off her tiny waist and tattooed stomach after revealing her mystery weight loss — as the 46-year-old undergoes full-body ‘ultimate reset’ treatment amid growing concern from fans and family… - suong  

KATIE Price has showcased her very slender waist and tattooed stomach after she confessed she “doesn’t know” the reason for her weight loss.
The former glamour model, 46, revealed her “snatched and defined” look as she headed for a beauty treatment in Greater Manchester.
It came after the mum of five concerned fans when she was rushed to hospital – claiming medics are baffled by her slimmed-down frame.
Now Katie, who sought further medical advice for her weight just last month, has undergone an “ultimate reset” with full-body lymphatic drainage treatment.
A series of images posted to Drain and Define’s Instagram page showed her lying on her back, with her bare tummy and array of body artwork exposed.
Her tanned, slender waist could clearly be seen as she stayed snug under two beige towels.
In their caption, the Bury-based business wrote: “Full body lymphatic drainage meets sculpting wood therapy.
“The ultimate reset for @katieprice — her stomach looked snatched and defined, and the post-treatment zen was unreal.
“Pure transformation inside and out.”
Lymphatic drainage has been dubbed the “celeb weight loss massage” with the likes of Hailey Bieber, Dua Lipa and Kylie Jenner all self-confessed fans.
It was initially designed to relieve inflammation related to lymphoedema – a condition that causes swelling in the body’s tissues, sometimes as a result of cancer treatment, infection, injury or long periods of immobility.
But in 2025, lymphatic drainage is now touted as a way to reduce stress, appear slimmer and get glowing skin.
It is a non invasive treatment and a lot like a gentle therapeutic massage, used to alleviate digestive issues, hormonal imbalance, and reduce cellulite.
HEALTH CONCERNS
Just last month, Katie uploaded a selfie to social media with a concerning caption.
She wrote: “First day off and straight to the doctors to find out what’s happened to my weight.”
She also shared another snap of herself in a pink hoodie and said: “Doctors for bloods to see why I’m losing weight.”
This comes after she revealed she was in hospital last month after drastically shedding the pounds over the past 12 months.
The Celebrity Big Brother winner told her fans on Snapchat at the time: “I’ve been up early at the doctors so she could do some bloods and because my veins are so s*** they had three attempts.
“They could only fill two tubes up, so I’ve got to go back in two weeks.
“And I’ve got to have my stitches out then because they looked at my little stab wound that I did.”
Her frail frame has been a cause of concern for her fans over the last few months, with many of her loyal followers taking to the comments section of her pictures to share their worries.
FAMILY CLAP BACK
Her fans aren’t the only ones who have shared their concerns as the former glamour model’s family have also said their piece.
In August, while filming the first episode of her new podcast, The Katie Price show, she was joined by her sister Sophie.
As the podcast was wrapping up, the sister duo were joined by Sophie’s dad and Katie stepdad Paul as talk soon turned to Katie’s weight loss.
On the episode, Katie, who recently showed off her newest surgery, asked her dad: “What are you looking at?” to which he replied: “Look how thin them legs are, terrible they are, my hand can go round them.”
She replied: “They’re obsessed with my weight,” as Sophie chimed in: “You are thin.”
Katie was heard insisting: “I am happy,” as her dad retorted: “No it’s not right, it’s probably that vaping crap.”
