Summary
- Deeley fled LA after a terrifying mall shooting incident.
- She reunited with friends from 'So You Think You Can Dance'.

Cat Deeley recently visited Los Angeles, reconnecting with friends from her time working in the US. The presenter, who lived in America for 14 years, shared moments from her trip on social media.
Deeley and her ex-husband Patrick Kielty moved their family back to the UK in 2020, partly due to a frightening experience at a Los Angeles mall. She recounted how her husband and son had to take cover during a shooting incident, an event that heightened her fears about gun violence.
During her visit, Deeley reunited with former 'So You Think You Can Dance' producer Jeff Thacker and friend Christina Gualazzi. She previously hosted the show for 14 years, alongside other US-based projects and red carpet events.
The star is now based in London, co-parenting her two sons with Patrick Kielty. The couple announced their divorce in July 2025, ending their 13-year marriage.
