Meanwhile, singer Molly, 21, looked just as good and showed off her sense of style in a purple sports jacket and black leggings.
She wore her blonde locks in loose waves and chose to go makeup-free while carrying a large suitcase.
Fleur East, Dianne Buswell, Ellie Taylor, Nancy Xu and Kym Marsh were also seen leaving the hotel on Saturday morning.

It comes after Helen opened up about how the end of her eight-year marriage to Richie Myler made her “battle hardened.”
The television star claimed that this was the “best” time for her to participate in Strictly Come Dancing.
She said The sun she had been approached before but turned down the opportunity, saying it’s “the most brilliant thing to be a part of.”
Helen explained, “I came into this show pretty hardened.

“Strict is probably quite overwhelming for a lot of people, but for me, funnily enough, I was actually in the best place to be in it.
“Other people were worried about all the attention that comes with being on Strictly, or their souls on television, when I was ready for that.”
The Countryfile star went on to explain that she needs to “train her brain” to keep her head in check, which Strictly does for her.
It came after it was reported that Helen’s estranged husband Richie is expecting a child with his new girlfriend Stephanie, six months after he split from Helen.

Richie ended his eight-year marriage to Countryfile host Helen in April, just four months after she gave birth to their third child.
He is now expecting a baby with his new girlfriend Stephanie, 32, whom he would see for the first time just days after his divorce from Helen was revealed.
The former couple maintain “warm relationships” and Helen was reportedly made aware of the news before Stephanie announced it publicly on social media.
A source told The sun Stephanie and Richie are “excited” to expect their first child just six months after their relationship came to light.

They added: “Stephanie and Richie are clearly excited. They moved very quickly but are very happy together.
However, the timing of pregnancy may raise eyebrows. It’s clearly such a huge step, and one that was made remarkably quickly with the end of Helen and Richie’s eight-year marriage.
“But Richie and Helen are very close, and in a way the timing is actually perfect as Helen is so happy right now.”
The source added that Helen is “way too busy” to focus on her training and rehearsals for Strictly.
Outfit: Dianne completed her look with black sweatpants and comfy sneakers

Richie has two young sons Ernie, seven, Louis, five, and daughter Elsie Kate, nine months, with his estranged wife Helen.
His relationship with Stephanie came to light in May, days after it was announced that his eight-year marriage to Helen was over.
Helen is said to feel “stunned” by the breakdown of her marriage, and a source close to the couple told MailOnline: “Helen is devastated.”
They continued: “Now she is contemplating life without him, as he has moved on with his new partner.
