Today, Boris and his wife said their farewells to No 10 and their home at No 11 - as a large crowd gathered outside the Government office.

The mother-of-two showed off some of her back and her skinny waist in the vibrant pink dress which matched her lipstick.

The floral frock originally cost £485, but it is now available on the website for a reduced price of £194.

Their website says: “Harmur is for women who want to look and feel sexy and feminine without having to reveal all… it’s the backless alternative to conventional low cut”.

It also adds that it is the “only brand that makes only backless tops”.

Carrie and Boris started dating in 2018, and shortly after they were moved into No 11 following Boris’ election victory in December 2019.

She also said that the former Prime Minister’s wife avoided designer outfits and preferred to rent or find bargains on the high street, including the likes of H&M.

With his well-dressed wife close by, Boris used his farewell speech to point out that he ‘got Brexit done’ and oversaw the ‘fastest vaccine rollout’.
