Reality stars raise temperatures on glam night out in Manchester as the city swelters

It was a starry night in Manchester as raised the temperatures out on the town. Glamorous reality TV stars wowed in their finery as they partied at various celeb hotspots across town on Saturday.

Married At First Sight pals Jessika Power, from Australia's 2019 series of the hit matchmaking show, and Nikita Jasmine, who appeared in the UK version last year, held hands as they headed to Boujee restaurant and bar on Bridge Street as Manchester City and England star Kyle Walker's ex Lauryn Goodman was seen leaving The Ivy in Manchester at Spinningfields.

Jessika from Perth, who moved to Manchester last year, wowed in a pair of grey pleated skorts and matching cropped jacket, which she later unbuttoned to throw some dance moves at Boujee to reveal a black bra top. Jessika wore silver strappy heels to match her metallic bag.

Her friend Nikita looked equally stylish on the girls' night out in a cream cropped top and matching wide-legged trousers . The ladies were greeted by The Real Housewives of Cheshire star owner Lystra Adams at her all-pink venue.

Jessika and Nikita pair starred together on Celebs Go Dating after ruffling feathers on Married At First Sight, which sees singles meeting their husbands and wives to-be for the first time as they walk up the aisle and say 'I do.'

Outspoken Nikita ended up being kicked off Married At First Sight for 'code of conduct breach' after marrying total stranger Ant Poole, from Manchester, on the E4 show. The couple were seen rowing not long after arriving for their honeymoon in Mexico.

A spokesperson for E4 said about her departure: "The wellbeing of cast and crew is our utmost priority at all times throughout production and beyond. During filming, a situation escalated off camera and Nikita displayed a level of aggression that was unacceptable and breached our agreed code of conduct on behaviour.

"As a result, she was asked to leave the experiment. All involved have been offered support and Nikita has since apologised and resolved the situation with those involved."

Jessika, who is dating podcaster Connor Thompson, gave fans a video tour of her new Manchester home last October after relcoating here. She came up with her own wish list of things to do now that she lives in England.

Along with visiting Harry Potter World, she included such activities such as a coach trip to the world’s largest Primark store in Birmingham, 'making friends with chavs' and ‘learning the 'sexy Scouser accent’. She also said she wanted to watch 'soccer' in Manchester. And other highlights on her 'UK Bucket List' included a B&M shopping spree, cocktails at Wetherspoons with the girls, a trip to Blackpool and meeting Lorraine Kelly and the Loose Women.

Jessika wed Mick Gould on Married At First Sight, but ditched him to pursue romance with co-star Dan Webb, which ended up being short-lived. Jessika and Dan embarked on a secret affair during filming and after their partners Mick and Tamara Joy discovered the truth they continued on the show as a new couple.

During the finale episode, the experts showed the couples unseen clips including the moment Jess had flirted with fellow MAFS star Nic Jovanovic. And she and Dan split following the revelation.

Ahead of their out Jessika called out trolls for nasty comments made about her online. "If you're nasty and being a bully on the Internet I'm going to name and shame because I'm so sick of it. If you're a p**** it's going on the Internet," she explained after sharing some of messages.

Across town Celebrity Big Brother 2016 housemate and X Factor contestant Chloe Khan partied with Love Island star Katie Salmon at Menagerie bar and restaurant at New Bailey and Club Liv on Peter Street. And new mum Katie excitedly announced on her Instagram: "My first night out in nearly 2 years…"
