With her job as a judge on the UK version of the X Factor, it looks as though Nicole Scherzinger is setting down some roots in London.... some very expensive roots we might add following the reports that the star has splashed £5 million on a London pad to be closer to her beau Lewis Hamilton.
According to the Mirror, the judge, who took on her permanent role as a judge on this weekend's Bootcamp stage of the competition, is believed to have settled in the Regent's Park area.

An insider claimed: "Nicole decided to look for a house soon after she began working on the X Factor.
"She loves London and wants a home here. It's much nearer to Lewis, who has a home in Monaco. It means she will be able to spend much more time with him. He spends a lot of time on the racing circuit so seeing each other can sometimes be a challenge."
Claiming that Nicole's move to London also has to do with the star's future on the X Factor following the rumours last week that she was facing the axe next year, the insider added:
"This, along with her increased workload in Britain, has made moving a no-brainer. She also hopes that being in the UK will put her in pole position for Simon Cowell to take her on for next year's series.
"Nicole will keep her home in Los Angeles because she will always need a base there. And she loves it there. She has lots of friends and records much of her music out in LA too."
