Hilary Duff enjoyed a double date night with her husband Matthew Koma and friends Sofia Richie and Elliot Grainge on Wednesday night.
The couples headed to Nobu in London for dinner together, ahead of the singer’s shows at the O2 Arena on Thursday and next Tuesday.
Hilary appeared in great spirits as she was seen chatting with Sofia – marking the first time the daughter of Lionel Richie has been seen out and about since her father was released from hospital.
The legendary musician, 77, is now back home in Los Angeles after a scary on-stage incident saw him check himself into the hospital.
Now that he is on the mend, Sofia enjoyed a trip away with her pals as the group were seen laughing together.
Embracing the autumnal weather, Hilary, 38, opted for a Prada re nylon jacket, stylish black jorts and chunky heeled leather boots.

Hilary is close friends with Sofia’s elder sister, Nicole, 44, despite her being married to Hilary’s ex Joel Madden.
Speaking about their friendship in an interview with Time in April, she said: ‘Hilary Duff has been my friend for about seven years but in the minds of millennials everywhere, she’s been our friend for most of our lives.’
Just last month Hilary got the crowd screaming when she brought out her ex Joel and his band Good Charlotte during her Madison Square Garden concert.
The unexpected appearance came two decades after Duff and Madden dated. The former couple were tabloid fixtures during their romance, which ran from 2004-2006.
The pair have remained on good terms in the intervening years, and now even hang out with their respective spouses.
Joel has been with Nicole for almost 20 years. They first met and started dating in late 2006 not long after his breakup from Hilary.
