The presenter has been busy covering the glamorous events taking place during Cannes Film Festival in recent days and he was on the show to report  back to host Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford on Thursday.

As he was introduced and gave viewers a look at his location, he gushed: "Portia is also soaking up the scenery down there, say hi.

"There she is... it's my Kate Winslet down there everybody."

Later in the segment he also threw in a cheeky joke as she rang a bell on a yacht, saying: "You can ring my bell any time, baby!"

His gushing comments come after he was seen holding hands with Strictly pal Laura Whitmore while helping her make her way to London's posh Mondrian hotel.

As they strolled along Laura, 32, placed her hand on 31-year-old Ore’s shoulder as they appeared to share a joke.

Apart from enjoying the glittering TV award ceremony and afterparty, the two also celebrated a year of knowing each other prior to appearing on Strictly Come Dancing together.
