Holly Valance looks very different these days compared to her Neighbours and pop star days during the height of her fame. The Australian actress turned singer, 40, showed off her ageless looks during a romantic stay at London's swanky Dorchester Hotel alongside her billionaire husband, Nick Candy.
The former Neighbours star oozed elegance as she emerged from the posh London hotel alongside her beau. Holly looked worlds away from her former pop-star self as she proved that she's now ditched the platinum blonde hair for a more natural look, and she's swapped out the daring outfits for a more dressed-down and elegant look.
The actress, who played Felicity Scully in Australian soap Neighbours, is now sporting an on-trend choppy fringe but still looks as stunning as she did during the height of her fame back in the early 2000's. During her romantic date with husband Nick, Holly oozed elegance and glamour as she rocked black fur gilet with a chiffon blouse underneath. She topped off the trendy look with some black skinny jeans and classic black boots.

Holly shot to fame on Neighbours (Getty)The gorgeous mum-of-two, who shares her daughters Luka, 9, and Nova, 5, with business mogul Nick, decided to quit her showbiz lifestyle and step out of limelight more than a decade ago. Holly then found love with her now British husband and relocated to the UK for good.
The lovebirds, along with their two daughters, now live between their £75 million penthouse flat in London and their mansion home in Chipping Norton, in the Cotswolds. The pair also own a sprawling property in Holmby Hills, Los Angeles, where they reportedly travel to every year.

"I didn’t know anything about him. I just thought 'Cor, if I didn’t fancy you so much, we’d be the best of friends. Instead, I just want to make out with you all the time,'" she previously told the Daily Mail.
The Aussie star said she 'freaked out' and almost ended things when she discovered just how wealthy he really was, admitting it was 'just too much'. In a panic she said she rang her mum, who convinced her to give Nick a chance, and she moved back to London to be with him.
Holly is married to billionaire businessman Nick Candy (PA)"I was used to razzle dazzle and meeting lots of famous people, but I wasn’t used to super-yachts and private jets," she said of adapting to Nick's lifestyle before he gifted her a £20,000 Rolex Daytona watch for her birthday.
They tied the knot it a lavish outdoor ceremony in Beverly Hills, California, in 2012, at a reported cost of £3million, with 300 guests including Simon Cowell receiving invites that cost an eye-watering £300 each, and they were even treated to a live performance from Katy Perry, who pocketed £1.2million for the show.
The following November, Holly gave birth to their daughter Luka, followed by her little sister Nova in September 2017.
