Oti looked effortlessly chic in a grey T-shirt which she teamed with a washed denim pair of shorts and black sandals.

Oti and Marius met in Germany during a dance trial and competed together in several competitions.
Although the Romanian dancer, 40, has not followed in his wife’s footsteps with a stint on Strictly, he’s no stranger to TV having appeared on two seasons of German show Let’s Dance.
Marius popped the question on his birthday to the Dancing On Ice judge in 2014 and the pair married the same year.
The snaps follow reports that Oti is being considered as a replacement for David Walliams on Britain’s Got Talent, following his vile remarks about two of the show’s contestants.

Bosses of the reality programme have discussed how the star would be perfect for the role.
She is currently at the centre of a tug of war between ITV and the BBC, who both want her to star on their shows because of her overwhelming popularity.
A television insider told The Mail on Sunday: ‘Oti’s name is in the frame. She is being touted as the perfect replacement for Walliams if ITV decide not to take him back. There are multiple conversations taking place as negotiations are currently taking place but Oti is a clear route many involved in BGT want to take. They think she would be perfect.’
Oti made her debut as a television judge on another of Simon Cowell’s programmes, The Greatest Dancer, in 2018 and he grew very fond of her.
After she quit Strictly last year, the South African dancer was poached by ITV to be on the judging panel of their skating competition, Dancing On Ice. They also made her the presenter of her own dating show, Romeo And Duet.
But the BBC then took her back for a new quiz show, The Tower, which she has recently filmed for the broadcaster.
