The television personality’s outfit showed off her slim figure and she was all smiles as she waited for a day of fun.

She later shared snaps of Aintree posing with husband Jonathan as they enjoyed a pre-event lunch.

They then took their seats in the stands and she posted a sweet photo of them together as they waited for the action to begin.

It comes after Sarah Jayne hit back at trolls on Monday after she was slammed for posing as a storm in lingerie as “a mom in her 40s.”

The former soap star took to her Instagram story to send a message to her critics after snaps of her in skimpy pink underwear emerged last week.

The mother of one wrote, “To the man (following me here) who just commented that I’m a mother in my 40s and that’s why I shouldn’t be showing off in my pants.

“Don’t come to see me today, I’m not in the mood. I’ll parade in my pants for as long as I want.

“Regardless of my age or parental status and you can be kind enough to mess around, blocked.”

Sarah Jayne shares six-year-old son Stanley with her husband, fitness trainer Jonathan Smith.

Her impassioned message comes after she shared a lingerie-clad photo on Instagram last week, showing off her figure in a pink underwear set.

Sarah recently launched another attack on Hollyoaks bosses, calling them hypocrites for firing her over her OnlyFans career.

Speak on the Dirty Mother Pukka podcast, she claimed she once felt “violated” after a sex scene with an eager new actor.

She also accused bosses of making an unnamed actress cry after a nude shower scene she said was done on “their terms.”

A spokesperson for the soap has told MailOnline that they were ‘unaware’ of Sarah’s complaints regarding her time on Hollyoaks.

Sarah was famously fired from the Channel 4 soap, in which she starred as Mandy Richardson for refusing to stop doing her OnlyFans content.

But she claims she asked the soap’s executives if it would be okay if she put sexy pictures of herself on the website, and claims they gave her approval – only to later fire her for it.

Sarah, who occasionally played Mandy on the soap from 1996 until her firing in 2021, said: “They knew about it. I’d had meetings, I’d had zoom meetings. I told them I was considering the platform.

“They hesitated, they weren’t sure, and when I explained that I wouldn’t be doing explicit content — that’s clearly not my thing — I’d literally move my content from Instagram to OnlyFans, they agreed internally.

“The way the contract works is you have to get permission to do anything outside of the program. And I’m a good girl, I always have been, I’m very professional, so I took all the right paths.’

She said it was all fine “until I launched,” adding “so then it wasn’t fine.”

Sarah said that while program executives objected because it was an over-18s platform and the show had a youth audience, they knew that when they gave the go-ahead earlier.

She added, “Apparently a cast member complained. I would like to know (who), I have my suspicions.’

She believes the situation has “blown up so much” because Hollyoaks had lost control of images of her, but she did nothing other than the promotional photos she was contractually obligated to.

She lashed out at the “hypocrisy of the whole thing,” saying, “I think what annoyed them was the fact that I was taking control of myself.

“I went ‘this is what I do, is that okay with you?’, ‘we’re okay with that’, and then I did it and suddenly they weren’t okay with that.

“For me, reading it, it’s the fact that they have no control and can’t make money off it.”

When contacted by MailOnline, a Hollyoaks spokesperson said: ‘Duty of care for our cast and crew is of the utmost importance to us.

“We are not aware of any complaints from Sarah Jayne Dunn regarding the time she describes on the Hollyoaks set. Hollyoaks adheres to strict protocols on set to protect and safeguard our team.”

Sarah has previously said she plans to stop appearing on stage when her son Stanley, six, is a teenager.
