Reform UK leader Nigel Farage and former model Jodie Marsh were all smiles as they took over the dance floor with fellow famous faces, and partied at Jodie’s fundraising bash
Politician Nigel Farage and media personality Jodie Marsh might seem like an unlikely duo on paper, but they were all smiles as they were snapped dancing together at a fundraiser for Jodie’s animal charity. The Reform UK leader appeared to be having the time of his life as he held hands with the former model and danced around the room.
Nigel joined in the party antics at Quendon Hall in Essex, wearing a blue velvet suit jacket paired with some black trousers. Jodie cut a smart figure in a velvet emerald green dress which trailed along the floor behind her.
Jodie hosted the event to raise funds for her Fripps Farm Animal Sanctuary which she started in 2020. It is reported that she funds the running of the centre out of her own money and the fundraising event was to generate some extra income to continue to sanctuary’s rescue projects.
Nigel Farage wasn’t the only famous face at the bash, as Spandau Ballet singer Tony Hadley was spotted at the event, as well as Eastenders favourite Jessie Wallace and Rod Stewart’s son Alastair.
The Sun reported that Oasis musician and singer Noel Gallagher donated one of his guitars and a few tickets to one of their upcoming gigs which accumulated a whopping £6000 for the charity.
The sanctuary’s Instagram page kept fans up to date with the party and even included a glimpse of Jodie shaving off another person’s hair in the name of charity. Jodie stated that she had the ‘best supporters’ on her Instagram and publicly thanked people for donating.
Jodie wrote on Instagram: “We did it !!!!!!! Thank you to everyone who donated for Nathan to shave his hair off!!!!!!!!! I did it live at our gala ball last night!! The Maximus Gala Ball. You are all amazing and the biggest thanks to Nathan for raising all that money for Fripps”.
Fripps Farm is described as a ‘loving home’ to unwanted animals on their official website. They also state that ‘all animals’ are welcome and that many have been saved from the ‘brink of heath’.
The website states: “Owned by former model and documentary maker Jodie Marsh, Fripps Farm is currently home to over 250 animals, many of which have been saved from slaughter.
“Jodie gives a loving home to animals that are either unwanted or in danger of being put to sleep/slaughtered.”
“With the correct nutrition, care and expertise Jodie has also brought sick or injured animals back from the brink of death. Followers of the farm can clearly see how loved the animals are and how special Jodie’s bond is with them. All animals welcome at Fripps Farm.”
