Christine McGuinness celebrates 'last' as she makes glamorous appearance at star-studded fundraiser alongside Helen Flanagan and Coleen Rooney

Coleen Rooney, Helen Flanagan and Christine McGuinness were amongst some of the famous faces to attend a glitzy fundraising event in Old Trafford on Saturday night (November 18).

The Football for Change gala was held at the Emirates Old Trafford cricket ground in a bid to reach a £1 million fundraising target for the charity, which helps young people in the UK.

The charity, set up in 2021 by Liverpool FC star Trent Alexander-Arnold, Leicester City’s Conor Coady, Jamie Carragher and Real Madrid icon Jude Bellingham, provides education, employment and sport opportunities for disadvantaged school leavers.

The gala event featured performances from Olly Murs, Beverley Knight and Tinie Tempah, alongside a special Q&A session on football from Peter Crouch and wife Abbey Clancy.

Christine McGuinness turned up to the event in a shimmering gown from Liverpool-based Cinders Party Dress as she posed for photos. Posting on social media ahead of the event, Christine, 35, said ‘mama is going to party’ as she revealed it was set to be her ‘last ball of 2023’.

Former Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan, 33, arrived wearing a leopard print mini dress alongside black tights and a pair of black pointed heels, whilst Coleen Rooney turned up in a glamorous sparkly black dress alongside husband Wayne, who dressed smart in a suit and tie.

Also in attendance at the fundraiser were boxing legend Ricky Hatton, Coronation Street star Lucy Fallon, Olivia and Alex Bowen, and Love Island star Gemma Owen.
