Cheryl has been keeping a low-profile ever since rumours escalated that she is pregnant with her first baby.
But while the singer is giving the party circuit a wide berth, she hasn't given up on socialising entirely. The 33-year-old is enjoying spending quality time at her best friends' houses as she avoids the glare of the celebrity spotlight.
She recently attended the 31st birthday party of her former Girls Aloud bandmate Nicola Roberts, alongside her best friend Kimberley Walsh.

Kimberley revealed their intimate get-together in her new HELLO! Online blog post, writing: "Last week I went to a dinner party to celebrate my friend Nicola Roberts' birthday, it was so lovely.
"It was just a group of her closest friends, Cheryl was there too. One of her good friends hosted it and had put on an amazing Moroccan feast!

"Having dinner parties at home is the best! Long gone are the days of going to clubs and partying till the early hours. We had some great birthdays back in the Girls Aloud days but these days we're definitely all much happier to chill in the privacy of one of our homes and enjoy a proper catch up.

"It was perfect for me being heavily pregnant as I'm constantly running to the loo all night and could stay in my comfy clothes!"
Kimberley, 34, is expecting her second baby with her husband Justin Scott. The singer, who has just started blogging for HELLO! Online, will be writing all about her pregnancy and motherhood experiences.
She recently revealed that Cheryl would make a "brilliant" mum. Speaking to The Sunday People, Kimberley said: "She's really happy right now. And she'll be a brilliant mum. She has loads of nieces and nephews, so she's used to the madness of children. Both she and Nicola [Roberts] are naturally good with kids."

The speculation comes after Cheryl was snapped with what appears to be a baby bump. She has been dating Liam Payne, 23, since December.
The Daily Mirror also reports that Cheryl's divorce from her ex-husband, Jean-Bernard Fernandez-Versini, will be finalised this week.
