'Things are good', she enthused.' I think it's all about having a refreshing outlook on life, looking at things in a positive, uplifting way and having gratitude. I'm very blessed.'

Nicole also spoke candidly about her time on The X Factor, explaining that despite Simon Cowell not asking her to renew her contract as a judge, she still has a lot of respect for the music mogul.

She said: 'I adore Simon. He’s not as bad as people think. He’s a leader. I learnt a lot from him. We’re still close.'

Meanwhile, her on/off ex Lewis claimed his third consecutive world title after winning the US Grand Prix in Austin over the weekend.

He told the crowd: 'It's the greatest moment of my life. Thank you guys so much, for everything you do. I'm so grateful. To my family, I love you all, thank you.'

Hamilton, 30, made history by equalling Sir Jackie Stewart's record of three world titles for a Briton.
