Channel Seven’s Rebecca Maddern commands attention in daring red gown at Brownlow Medal 2024 – after simmering tensions over hotshot ABC presenter doing her job were revealed

Channel Seven presenter Rebecca Maddern made sure all eyes were on her when she attended the 2024 Brownlow Medal at Crown Melbourne on Monday night.

The 47-year-old woman looked very tall in a striking red dress that stole all the attention.

The Geelong-born beauty stunned in a daring, floor-length scarlet dress with a thigh-length slit that showed off her toned legs.

The dress is also designed with a unique cross neckline, which adds an extra dramatic effect.

The bodice featured carefully placed cutouts that accentuated her beautiful hourglass figure.

Rebecca paired the striking outfit with matching red pointy heels.

For accessories, she wore a delicate silver bracelet on her wrist, while a diamond-encrusted ring added a touch of sparkle.

Her blonde hair was elegantly pinned up, further accentuating her striking features.

For her makeup, she opted for a dewy complexion and accentuated her eyes with smokey shades. She finished the look with a nude lipstick.

Her glamorous outing comes amid reports that the arrival of former ABC TV presenter Karina Carvalho at Channel Seven‘S Melbourne offices has angered network stars – chief among them the respected news and sports presenter Maddern.

Seven sources told Ny Breaking Australia the long-time presenter has concerns about her role at the network, following the recent appointment of Carvalho (43) and the sacking of dozens of network staff across the country.

Cavalho covered Maddern’s usual role as evening news anchor alongside Mike Amor this weekend, after she flew out of the country for a family wedding. Maddern is expected to be out of the picture until September.

Meanwhile, insiders said Maddern was furious when she arrived at the network’s Docklands studios to find Cavalho had already finished filming what she had expected to be completed.

“Some staff believe Karina was brought in to replace Bec,” an insider told Ny Breaking Australia, noting that Maddern has been “very public” in defending her place on the newsroom floor of late.

But senior Seven insiders pushed back, arguing that Maddern was too valuable to the network’s news and sport departments and that the station needed more experienced female presenters.

According to sources, Maddern has a long-term contract and is highly valued by the station.

Behind the scenes, Maddern is supported by her loyal colleagues who talk her through the difficult new dynamics.
