She is known for her impressive career as a professional ballerina as well as her judging role on Strictly Come Dancing.
But arguably as well-known as her lengthy career is Dame Darcey Bussell’s signature brunette locks which she regularly shows off with her intricate hairstyles.
However, the 53-year-old actress left viewers gobsmacked when she appeared on Lorraine on Monday (July 18) as the TV star showcased her hair transformation for the first time on live TV.

While she discussed her latest project following the Queen’s favourite hobbies to do when taking a break from ruling the monarchy, the dancer debuted her new look as she embraced her grey hair.
The starlet appeared to rock a soft summery ombre in her hair as her long grey roots blended seamlessly into her chocolate locks which had been curled into beachy waves for her TV appearance.
She paired the new looks with a bright red tee dress which hugged her elegant frame as she talked about her upcoming TV series which follows Her Royal Highness’ life throughout her reign.
While she caught up with the beloved Scott, she revealed how she has lived in the same home as Her Majesty through her time working with the Royal Academy of Dance.
During the filming of her new Channel 4 series, the dancer discovered the Queen spent the first year of her life living at White Lodge in the heart of Richmond.
The glorious property was later loaned to the Royal Ballet School where the Dame started her career as a ballerina as she trained and boarded at the glorious mansion from the age of 13.
Speaking to the Daily Mail about the discovery, she confessed that it was strange to learn about her special connection with the monarch.
She told the publication: “It’s strange because you embark on a project like this, you want to make a connection.
“And obviously we have out links through the arts, with the Queen being a patron of so many of the companies and charities I’ve been involved in.
“But I had no idea we had once shared a home,” she revealed.
