Meanwhile, Paige, 29, looked relaxed in beige cargo pants and a matching padded vest.

The pair were first linked in September when Paige’s mother told The Sun on Sunday: “Yes, they are in a relationship together.”
A source added: “Paige has talked about seeing [Jermain] for a few weeks now. She seems very happy and relaxed about everything.”
Last month the pair were spotted kissing outside a £1,200-a-night five-star hotel near Clitheroe, Lancashire.
However, just days earlier, Jermain was seen at the Pride of Britain Awards with influencer Alisha, who he only started dating weeks after his marriage to wife Donna Tierney collapsed in January 2023.
According to Sun on Sunday, he was spotted again with Alisha at his £3million mansion on October 20, a week after his weekend getaway with Paige.
Jermain, who now works as a trainer and TV expert, is said to have met Paige in August and the two have had a whirlwind romance ever since.
A source said: “Paige has found her soulmate in Jermain and he seems serious about them. “They are really happy together.”
But Alisha has been living with the former Tottenham player at his home in Hertfordshire since May and flew with him to a wedding in Bali last month.

They also appeared together at the Pride of Britain Awards, after which she shared a picture with the caption: “A night I’ll never forget.”
His relationship with Alisha came after the collapse of his marriage to 40-year-old Donna, just months after their glittering £200,000 OK! Magazine wedding last June.
Jermain met the Scottish beauty therapist by liking her pictures on social media.
They first met in person at a charity event in January 2021, where she asked him for a signed T-shirt.
Just seven months later, he knelt and proposed to her in a £2,500-a-night Glasgow hotel decorated with bright “Marry Me” letters and rose petals.
The couple then married in June 2022 in a £200,000 ceremony at Cliveden House. The 250 guests included Tottenham assistant first-team coach Ledley King and former West Ham player turned TalkSport pundit Carlton Cole.
However, just six months later, in January 2023, the couple had split after Jermain was seen posting pictures of himself without his wedding ring and without mentioning his wife.
