NTA awards 2019: How many NTAs have Ant and Dec got? Will Ant TURN UP?

The annual NTAs will celebrate those who have entertained Britain for the past 12 months. Categories include best drama, comedy, talent show and serial drama performance. The show will start from 7.30pm on ITV on January 22.

How many NTAs have Ant and Dec got?

TV duo Ant and Dec currently have 17 NTAs and could collect their 18th this Tuesday.

Ant and Dec are nominated for the TV Presenter prize and a victory would be the pair’s 18th win in a row.

However, they could be facing competition from Holly Willoughby, who is also up for the award.

Holly joined Dec in the Australian jungle last year to present I’m A Celeb, after Ant entered rehab and took time off from TV to focus on his recovery from drug and alcohol addiction.

Ant has previously revealed watching Holly take over his job was “too hard to watch” although he supported Dec’s new co-host.

He told The Sun at the time I’m A Celeb aired: “I told the senior executive at ITV that I’m not going to watch the show because it will be hard for me.

“I haven’t been on social media. I got through the day. Anne-Marie and I had a lovely lunch for my birthday.

“But I was lying in bed and I don’t know how the show’s gone.”

Will Ant turn up?

The initial plan was for Ant and Dec to attend the NTAs together but according to the Daily Star, neither of the two may turn up.

Reports claim the appearance have been put in jeopardy as Simon Cowell has booked them for film auditions for the new season of Britain’s Got Talent at the time of the award show.

A spokesman for the pair told the Daily Star: “We will let people know what Ant and Dec’s plans are once it’s decided.”

The news that Ant and Dec will return to the screens together on Britain’s Got Talent broke on Thursday, January 17.

Richard Arnold revealed the news on Good Morning Britain and said: “I can officially announce that after a year off Ant will start filming on the new series of BGT.

“Can you believe its come around again? Oh how the time flies.

“They’re reuniting on Friday for the auditions of course, getting underway in London on Friday before the rest of the BGT continue their search for talent next month.”
