Caroline Flack has been photographed kissing her mum as she leaves court after pleading not guilty to assault by beating.
The 40 year old appeared at Highbury Magistrates Court on Monday morning following her arrest on 13 December.
Police were called to the former Love Island presenter's London home earlier this month after an alleged incident which occurred between Caroline and her boyfriend Lewis Burton.
Caroline was dressed in all black as she attended court, donning a black blouse, tights, and knee high boots.

She covered up her ensemble with a black coat, wrapping up some more with a scarf around her neck.
After departing the court, where the incident was described as being similar to a scene from "a horror movie," Caroline was embraced by her mum, Christine.
Christine wrapped an arm around her famous daughter's back, planting a kiss on her face, landing the smooch very close to her mouth.
Inside the court, Caroline spoke only to confirm her name, address, date of birth, nationality and enter her plea.
Caroline's defence lawyer, Paul Morris told the court: "Mr Burton has never supported this prosecution. He is not the victim, as he would say, he was a witness."
But Katie Weiss, prosecuting, replied: "Mr Burton is a victim, he received significant injury to his head."
Giving details of the ordeal, prosecutor Katie said: "At 5.25am on the 12 December he [Lewis Burton] made an allegation against his girlfriend Caroline Flack.
"Police then made their way to the address. Police then knocked on the door eight minutes later and it was opened by both of them. Both were covered in blood.
"And in fact one of the police officers likened the scene to a horror movie. He [Burton] said he had been asleep and had been hit over the head by Caroline by a lamp. It cut his head and his face was covered in blood.

"He said that Caroline smashes a glass and caused injuries. She had two lacerations to her left wrist. She took his phone while he was sleeping. She had seen text messages which made her think he was cheating.
"In the 999 call the complainant said quite clearly that his girlfriend was beating him up. He asked repeatedly for help. He was almost begging the operator to send help.
"He said: 'She is going mad, breaking stuff. I've just woken up. She's cracked my head open'."
