BBC Sport host has wardrobe malfunction on vacation in ‘Marilyn Monroe second’

BBC Sport host Emma Louise Jones had a ‘Marilyn Monroe moment’ as she wowed in a two-piece green dress on holiday.

Emma, 34, is currently soaking up some summer sun – and she took to Instagram to show off her latest fit. Fans were in awe of her jaw-dropping looks, but others were distracted by the final slide, a video showing how gusts of wind kept causing her skirt to fly up.

The blonde bombshell was able to overcome the wardrobe malfunction and catch the skirt to preserve her modesty – with fans comparing it to the famous image of Hollywood icon Marilyn Monroe in her revealing white dress. Emma joked: “Swipe to the end to witness how difficult it was to get these photos!”

Monroe’s iconic snap was taken while filming director Billy Wilder’s 1955 American romantic comedy The Seven Year Itch. During the classic movie, one scene shows Monroe and her co-star Tom Ewell exiting a building, and while walking over a subway grate, a passing train causes a gust of wind that causes her skirt to blow up. The picture itself was taken by Sam Shaw, and was used as promo material for the film, swiftly becoming one of the most famous images of all time.

Leeds superfan Emma has been getting over the disappointment of her beloved team failing to win promotion to the Premier League by sunning herself on a break from her presenting duties with the Beeb. And last week she caused a commotion online when she updated fans on her travels while posing in a low-cut white dress.

Fans gushed over her looks in the comments section, while Emma joked about trying to keep the dress white. She said: “Risky business drinking cocktails in this colour!”
