Alexandra Burke looks effortlessly stylish in a black co-ord and black coat as she leaves her hotel

She split from her footballer beau Angus MacDonald in October, deleting all snaps of the couple from her Instagram page.

And Alexandra Burke appeared in great spirits as she left her London hotel ahead of an early morning performance on Morning Live on Friday.

The X Factor winner, 32, looked effortlessly stylish in a black co-ord by Sandro and a chic black coat as she made her way down the street.

Alexandra looked confident in her glam ensemble consisting of a black shirt-style cropped cardigan with pink piping and a matching mini skirt.

The Hallelujah hitmaker teamed her look with black ankle boots, while she carried her essentials in a brown leather Louis Vuitton holdall.

Alexandra was already made up for her performance, sporting a face full of make-up, while her raven tresses were styled into a sleek ponytail. 

The singer also gave fans a behind-the-scenes glimpse on her Instagram stories as she prepared to perform a rendition of Silent Night.  

It comes after MailOnline exclusively revealed that the singer had split from her footballer boyfriend Angus MacDonald after 15 months of dating.

The West End star has deleted all trace of the Hull City defender, 28, from Instagram, including pictures of the pair enjoying birthdays and holidays together.

An insider confirmed to MailOnline that Alexandra and Angus had ‘amicably split’ and ‘remain good friends’ despite having gone their separate ways.   

A source added: ‘Alexandra and Angus both have busy careers and it’s been hard to see each other during lockdown. 

‘It felt like the best decision for them to cut ties and for Alexandra that involved removing any pictures of them together from her Instagram.’

Alexandra went official with Angus in July 2019 in a now-deleted black and white post that was taken during a romantic meal.

The X Factor winner dated the sportsman following the breakdown of her engagement to Josh Ginnelly, who she split from just weeks earlier. 

Alexandra supported Angus throughout his bowel cancer diagnosis; after he was confirmed to have the disease in August 2019.

After undergoing surgery to remove his entire bowel, and have his stoma reversed, Angus was given the all clear last Christmas and returned to football training in January.

In an interview from April this year, Angus credited Alexandra for helping him to cope after he had just discovered the news.

He said: ‘The first person I told was one of my best friends. It was a very emotional phone call – I don’t think I’ve ever cried to my friends before. I couldn’t get my words out. 

‘I had the weekend with Alex and she knew something wasn’t right. On the Saturday night, I broke down and told her the news.

‘I would rather have just dealt with it alone and I didn’t want to upset anyone but she was reassuring. I don’t know what I would have done without her support.’

During their 15 months together, Alexandra and Angus holidayed in Dubai, Japan and Disneyland, with all photos from their previous trips now wiped from social media.

In one post, Alexandra cuddled up to Angus wearing Minnie Mouse ears, while calling her boyfriend ‘dreamy.’ 

Alexandra, who is confirmed to take part in the upcoming series of SAS: Who Dares Wins, was in a relationship with ex-fiancé Josh for three years before they split. 

The former Strictly star confirmed she and Josh were engaged in 2018 when she shared a photo of her diamond ring to Instagram alongside the words: ‘I said yes!’ 

Alexandra won The X Factor in 2008 after performing with Beyoncé in the final, and went on to achieve three UK No 1 singles. 

Having also found success in musical theatre, she appeared on Strictly Come Dancing in 2017 and came second.
