The star has jetted off to the sun to enjoy a period of relaxation with her fiancé, the former rugby player Tom Evans.
Earlier this year she concluded a challenging six-month stint in the West End, playing Norma Desmond in director Jamie Lloyd’s revamped version of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Sunset Boulevard.
Indeed the former popstar won rave reviews for her performance and has been nominated for an Olivier Award at the London ceremony this weekend.
Then preparations will begin for her Broadway debut when Sunset Boulevard transfers to the great white way in the autumn.

Sunset Boulevard
British theatre wunderkind Jamie Lloyd is known for reinventing classic plays and texts with a dark underbelly.
The 43- year-old director chose Nicole, known in theatre circles as a triple threat for her ability to sing, dance and act- to play faded silent screen star Norma Desmond, in his show which opened at the Savoy Theatre in October.
Traditionally the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical is a period piece like the 1950 film starring Gloria Swanson. But Jamie Lloyd's production is a stripped back version set in the present day, with themes of social media, fame and the pressures on people in the public eye to retain their youth.
Speaking about his decision to cast Nicole, Jamie Lloyd said:

"Nicole is one of the finest vocalists in the world, she really can sing anything. If you ask Andrew Lloyd Webber he would agree with me. She's been in the public eye for a while as a performer, so she's perfect to play the modern day Norma."
Nicole described the experience of working on the production as a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
She told “It was life-changing. The most exhausting thing in my life but the most rewarding."
“It felt like I'd won the Olympics when it was finished. It was hard work but it’s my passion and I wear my heart on sleeve. Now we're going to Broadway.
"It’s my dream job. I'm living my best life performing on stage… But would do less shows.”
Nicole is expected to walk the red carpet at the Royal Albert Hall for the Olivier Awards this Sunday, where she has been nominated for best actress in a musical.
