Rhian Sugden flaunts her curves in a form-fitting brown mini dress as she enjoys dinner with husband Oliver Mellor in Manchester
Lingerie shoots took a back seat as Rhian Sugden enjoyed a night out with husband Oliver Mellor in Manchester on Saturday.
The pair were holding hands ahead of a dinner party at Masons Restaurant, with Rhian, 36, turning heads in a thigh-length brown mini dress as they went inside.
A loose black blazer gave the look a chic edge, while knee-high boots completed her latest ensemble.
Accessorizing with a smart Gucci handbag, Rhian inevitably turned heads while dining out with former Coronation Street Oliver, 42.
The actor was just as smart in a powder blue jumper and chinos with double pleats, a look he completed with a pair of black loafers.

The night out comes after Rhian admitted her latest IVF treatment had been unsuccessful.
Rhian and husband Oliver Mellor spent £75,000 to conceive but remain one of seven couples experiencing fertility problems.
She took to social media in July and wrote, “It’s been a great month for me. Looks like IVF round 7 failed.
“Please don’t text me sorry, I know you mean well, but it gets harder every time. I don’t want my barren ovaries to be apologized too.”
However, despite the setback, the stunner has vowed to continue with treatment, stating she would “pick herself up and go again.”
She added, “I’m so thankful for everything in my life and I’m even more thankful for my mom who made me such a strong person.
Rhian also opened up about developing an eating disorder as a result of the stress of IVF treatment and her mother’s diagnosis of colon cancer.
She explained how she could only eat half a banana and a piece of chocolate a day because eating made her feel like she was “suffocating.”

Rhian said she dreamed of having “four or five” little boys running around, but that she would be “lucky to have just one now.”
Earlier this year, the model first spoke out about her anxiety diagnosis, revealing her lifelong phobia of being sick, which started when she was just three years old, caused panic attacks and left her hospitalized.
In a conversation with former Love Island star Dr. Alex George on the Stompcast podcast, Rhian admitted that her phobia of being sick has taken over her life and that even her husband has struggled to deal with her panic attacks and anxiety.
She explained, “For the past five years I have been diagnosed with anxiety. But I’ve had it since I was about three or four years old and it wasn’t really a thing then.
“For as long as I can remember, I’ve had it bad. I feel like it’s taken over a big part of my life, but it stems from a phobia of being sick.’
She added, “I have ideas where it comes from because I’ve had so many different types of therapy over the years. I have had hypnotherapy, CBT therapy (cognitive behavioral therapy), shock therapy.
And they somehow turned me back — something I never thought was possible. I thought this was just ridiculous talk, but they managed to get memories out of me that I didn’t know I had. That was hypnotherapy doing that.
