Mollie King, Becky Hill & Sam Fender lead partied out celebs after Brit Awards 2022

BECKY Hill and Laura Whitmore led the stars looking all partied out leaving the Brit Awards 2022 afterparties.

Looking a little worse for wear, famous faces piled out onto the street outside parties after the epic ceremony at London's O2 Arena.

Celebrity Juice stars Laura, 36, and Emily Atack, 33, were among those spotted leaving venues after a boozy night at the Brits - where Adele made a triumphant return.

After stealing the show on the red carpet earlier in the evening, actress Emily was snapped giggling in the back of a taxi with Strictly star Graziano Di Prima.

Keeping her eyes to the floor, her pal Laura was spotted walking out of a party in a minidress.

Her hair remained neatly styled as she kept her composure on the brief walk to a taxi across the road to whisk her off home.

The same couldn't be said for other celebrities, who ditched their high heeled shoes as they exited the celebrity-packed clubs.

Singer Becky Hill collapsed in the back of a taxi after hobbling outside in her high heels.

And Strictly and Dancing on Ice star Oti was spotted giggling into husband Marius Lepure's shoulder.

During the bash Adele scooped three prizes and dedicated the biggest gong of the night to her son in a tearful speech.

The pop superstar, 33, took home song of the year, album of the year and artist of the year during the first ceremony to feature gender-neutral categories.

Her success brings her total Brits haul to 12 and increases her lead as the most decorated solo female artist at the awards.

She is also now the only solo artist to have won album of the year three times - with only the bands Coldplay and Arctic Monkeys equalling her total.

Host Mo Gilligan kicked off the evening at London's O2 Arena with a sketch in which he attempted to plan a dramatic entrance, but was thwarted by the show's policies on carbon emissions.

Adele soon won the first award of the night - song of the year for her hit single Easy On Me - after walking the red carpet wearing a sweeping black velvet gown with a tulle overlay.

She wore a large ring on her fourth finger, prompting speculation on social media that she is engaged to her sports agent boyfriend Rich Paul.

During her acceptance speech, she described attending the event as like "coming home".

Later, she returned to the stage to collect the inaugural award for artist of the year after it went gender-neutral for 2022.

After praising fellow nominee Little Simz, she added: "Dave, Ed, Sam - I am so proud to be in your company. I love being an artist, I really do, and I genuinely can't believe it is my job.

"And real artistry - I know I have spoken about it before - but there are so many new artists here. England, the UK, we have so many incredible new young artists coming up.

"Never lose sight of why you are who you are. The reason people are into you is because of something you have in you. Don't let go of that ever.

"And also, I understand why the name of this award has changed but I really love being a woman and being a female artist. I do. I am really proud of us.";

The awards ceremony this year featured an all-British line-up of live performers including Dave, rising star award winner Holly Humberstone, Liam Gallagher and Little Simz.
