Bikini-clad Nicole Scherzinger, 46, shows off her dance moves alongside fiancé Thom Evans, 39, on yacht trip after admitting she wants to have a child but 'the clock is ticking'

Nicole Scherzinger and her fiancé Thom Evans looked on cloud nine as they partied on a yacht while on holiday in the Algarve.

The Pussycat Dolls singer is enjoying a holiday in the sun alongside her partner, his brother Max and some other friends for her 46th birthday which was on Saturday. 

The pair appeared in good spirits as they larked about on deck with Nicole looking incredible in a patterned bikini top that highlighted her jaw-dropping figure.

The hitmaker also wore a pair of white linen trousers along with a pair of white-rimmed sunglasses.

Letting her brunette locks fall loose down her shoulders, Nicole danced alongside former rugby player Thom, 39, who displayed his physique in navy budgy smugglers. 

When they weren't showing off their dance moves, the couple enjoyed a glass of champange and a fruit bowl while relaxing with their pals.

Nicole wraped up in grey long-sleeved top and styled her tresses into a ponytail while enjoying a glass of bubbly with Thom.     

It comes after Nicole admitted time is against her as she shares her desires to have a child with Thom. 

The superstar shared how she wants to become a mother but it has so far been impossible with her packed schedule of work commitments. 

Hot off an extremely successful West End run, the Norma Desmond actress is just weeks away from returning Sunset Boulevard to Broadway.

Nicole is, however, adamant that the time is coming for her to start a family because 'the clock is ticking'.

She told The Times on Thursday: 'Oh my gosh, I would love to [have a baby]. I've never shied away from that. I can't wait. It's like the clock is ticking.

'I want to have a baby but work calls. But I'm going to have to make time because, yes, I cannot wait to have children.'

When asked if her mother is putting pressure on her to have children Nicole said: 'No, because my mother knows how hard I work and how passionate I am about what I do. 

'She is a faithful woman and she just knows, everything in God's timing.' 

Nicole has been dating Scottish ex-rugby union player Thom since 2020 and they got engaged in 2023. They met in 2019 on The X Factor: Celebrity.

She said of the former model: 'It's nice, because he likes a system - he's extremely organised and he's extremely on time, which is the opposite of me, so he makes me so much better in that way.

'I don't know if all rugby players are like this but he's the cleanest. He's OCD like me and I just love it. It's great.'

These sentiments were echoed in 2020 when Nicole told The Mirror: 'He's my man... the man of my dreams. I definitely want kids, at the right time. It is all about timing.

'It's kind of hard now because I'm supposed to be touring next year, so it's just about timing. I've always wanted a family.' 

Nicole added: 'It's just been a blessing to be able to have, like, a normal, healthy relationship and take time for myself. He is my partner in crime, my best friend.'

'We love to laugh together, we are big goofballs. We laugh together, we dance together, we sing together and cook together.'

When asked about a wedding, Nicole confessed she is yet to start planning but is hopeful it will be in the next couple of years, once her Broadway stint is finished.

Prior to Thom, Nicole was in a very high-profile on again, off again relationship with Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton from 2007 to 2015. 

The former Pussycat Dolls frontwoman has also been engaged once before: to Nick Hexum, lead singer of 311, whom she dated from 2000 to 2004.
