Vanessa White looks in good spirits as she catches up with Love Island’s Francesca Allen

Vanessa White and Francesca Allen made the most of pubs and restaurants being open again as they went for a meal on Wednesday.

The former Saturdays singer, 31, and the Love Island star, 25, enjoyed a catch up at Crazy Pizza in Marylebone. 

The pair looked in good spirits on the outing as they had a chat with a male friend. 

Vanessa wrapped up for the chilly weather in a black coat while she let her raven locks fall loose down her shoulders. 

Francesca donned a cream coat for the evening which she paired with black trousers and matching trainers.

The reality star sported a light pallet of makeup and wore her brunette locks in a poker straight style.  

Francesca recently claimed that although going on ITV2 dating show Love Island boosted her profile in the fashion industry it has actually hindered her chances of finding love. 

She told MailOnline some men are too intimidated to approach her at parties – but after years of being in relationships she has learned to be content on her own.

Francesca said: ‘You go out and you’ll see guys and they look at you because maybe they recognise you – but then they’re shyer.

‘I’m not going to meet anyone at an event! I’m still single but I was always in a relationship prior to going on Love Island.

‘I feel like now after being on the show that I’ve got much more confidence and I feel it is OK for me to be myself. I’m quite content with being on my own.’

The Essex native soared to fame on Love Island last year, yet her stint was fleeting as she was voted out alongside Michael Griffiths in July.

After leaving the show, she returned to work at her clothing store, which she owns with her sister Claudia, and also at her parents’ pub.

She has enjoyed a number of lucrative fashion collaborations and has cemented her influencer status with a number of advert and affiliate deals.
