While Rita had changed her outfit, Joey and the rest of the group were wearing the same clothes from the night before. 

The superstar singer stepped out in skin-tight leggings and a co-ordinating crop top, while adding a splash of colour with a yellow The North Face jacket.

Covering up somewhat, she wore a New York Knicks baseball cap and shielded her eyes with oversized black shades.

Completing her sports luxe attire, Rita further accessorised with multiple gold chain necklaces and chunky drop earrings.

As well as a special night for Vas, it was also his business partner Justin Campbell’s birthday party, so when the event at Laylow came to a close earlier than hoped for, the celebs looked for another venue to continue their evening of partying.

Rita was kind enough to host the impromptu afterparty, inviting the likes of Brookyln Beckham, Liam Payne and Emma Weymouth to party at her London pad late into the night.  

On Thursday night, Rita looked every inch the fashionista as she teased a hint of her toned abs in a knitted purple tartan vest, which she teamed with low-sling black chinos.

Shrugging a zebra print leather jacket over her shoulders, Rita layered a collection of gold and silver necklaces atop of the plaid top, which featured green striped design underneath the bust. 

The Anywhere hitmaker opted for comfort on her feet with black loafers and white socks and amped up the glamour with sparkly silver earrings. 

Rita styled her blonde locks into a 70s inspired bouffant and finished off her look with bright blue eye-shadow.

Joey is thought to have been dating model Lorena for nearly a year, after they were first pictured putting on a cosy display in May 2019. 

They are believed to have first got together while filming MTV’s Ex On The Beach, but confirmed their relationship in October as they shared a romantic kiss during a dinner date at Chigwell’s Sheesh Restaurant. 

In a recent interview on Loose Women, the hunk labelled the beauty ‘reem’ and confessed that things were ‘going good’ despite their long-distance romance.
