The brunette beauty completed her day time outfit with chunky black boots and wore an across the body bag as she carried her shopping.

After making their purchases the pair made a stop off in a cafe to enjoy a spot of lunch.

She put on a sultry display in the elegant loungewear as she posed with her toned legs crossed in the plush suite.  

Mel’s social media posts come after she recently hit out at Keith Lemon as she criticised British men who try to emulate him with their ‘limited vocabulary.’

Last month, the presenter discussed her dating experiences and branded men as ‘pretty basic and disappointing,’ during an interview for her own Frank magazine.

She said: ‘Sadly, in all realms of life, most men are pretty basic and disappointing. 

‘I feel a bit sorry for British men who have adopted the limited vocabulary of the television character Keith Lemon when talking about and to women.

‘I would be surprised, and indeed it would be a miracle, if any of these men are actually getting laid.’

Mel has previously appeared on Celebrity Juice where comedian Leigh Francis takes on the persona of host Keith. 

In light of her comments, Keith told The Sun he contacted Mel, who said she was merely referencing the persona he portrays on screen.

He said: ‘I reached out to her and asked why she didn’t like me. She said, “It’s not you, it’s your on-screen persona.”

The star then noted some of his career achievements over the years as he defended himself.

Keith added: ‘Well if anyone’s watching and you have a limited vocabulary, you can still win two Baftas and two NTAs. I don’t want to boast about all the things I’ve won.’
