Graham Norton arrived on the BAFTA TV Awards red carpet on Sunday revealing he’d sustained an injury as he sported his arm in a sling.  

The chat show king, 62, was among the stars who stepped out British TV’s night of the year – but there was a noticeable change to his appearance. 

Graham was beaming as he posed for snaps in an all-black tuxedo featuring a quirky patent ʙuттon-adorned collar. 

But he also debuted a mystery injury as his left arm was seen being supported by a black mesh sling.

The injury comes just days after fans shared their concerns after it was revealed he has put two of his homes up for sale in just one week. 

Graham revealed last week that he was putting his £4.95million east London mansion on the market after 20 years of living in the grade-II listed home.

But it has now been reported that Graham is also looking to sell his Manhattan carriage house, which he bought in 2002 after falling in love with its British feel.

The huge move has left some concerned about the reasoning behind the decision to sell both properties, with fans sharing their fears online.

The presenter was previously one of the BBC’s highest paid stars, but in recent years has seen his earnings reduce.

The star, who tied the knot with Jonathan ‘Jono’ McLeod in 2022, had also shared his hopes of ‘a big change’ when he first put his London home on the market.

Graham, previously among the BBC’s highest earners, is no longer one of the top-paid presenters on the publicly funded broadcaster.

He left BBC R2 in 2020 and his BBC One show is produced by an independent company, meaning his earnings are not reflected in the annual list of highest earners.

However, Graham’s recent comments about the reason behind the potential sale of his home in the English capital may put fans’ worries to rest.

Revealing the reason for the sale, the TV presenter told The Sunday Times that after pondering over it for a couple of years he is ready for a ‘big change’.

The 2025 BAFTA Television Awards with P&O Cruises is taking place at the Southbank Centre’s Royal Festival Hall on Sunday.

‘He will definitely bring a playful sense of mischief and fun to the ceremony, so audiences should expect the unexpected at Britain’s biggest celebration of TV on Sunday 11 May.’

The star-studded evening will see a slew of celebrities take home awards celebrating excellence in TV, as well as a line-up of standout performances.

In addition, BAFTA has confirmed award-winning concert violinist and social media sensation Esther Abrami will be performing Apple Tree for the In Memoriam tribute.

Speaking about her performance, Jessie J said: ‘I haven’t sung on British television in years. What a way to come back, it’s an honour. But who will the award go to, that’s the question.’

Meanwhile, Tom added: ‘It’s a real honour to have been invited by such a prestigious event as BAFTA to perform in front of so many esteemed actors and creatives.’
