Nicole Scherzinger ditches X Factor duties for romantic trip with Hamilton

London, Nov 13 (ANI): Despite 'X Factor' judges receiving stick for leaving their acts to fend for themselves in the past, Nicole Scherzinger decided to jet off to an exotic location with her beau Lewis Hamilton.

The pair were snapped smiling at each other as they headed to Heathrow Airport, having spent barely any time together over the last few weeks, the Mirror reported.

Hamilton has been busy taking part in Formula 1 races all over the world while the former Pussycat Doll has been mentoring the boys, so the pair have been desperate to spend some quality time together.

Wearing similarly ridiculous hats, they headed through the departure lounge and hopped onto a plane to a mystery location.

Judging by their luggage, they seem to be heading off on a two week holiday, but the singer has strict orders to be back by Friday and Hamilton has a race in Texas on Saturday, so they're clearly just big on having options on holiday. (ANI)
