Hannah's outing comes after she stepped out with handsome surgeon Nick earlier this month at Cheltenham Festival.
They both wore matching plaid jackets and couldn't wipe the grins from their faces during the day.
While she has never been pictured with Nick before, two years ago Hannah opened up about her love life as she confessed she hadn't been on a date in years.
Hannah previously dated Italian businessman Gianluca Cugnetto.
The pair had been together for more than a decade and were even rumoured to be engaged before their split.
Hannah previously said she is 'too busy and picky' to start dating again - though said if she was to ever date again she would have a strict criteria.
She told Michelle Visage on the Rule Breakers podcast: 'I'm a pretty picky girl really and have such a very specific kind of criteria of things.
'One of the main things with guys, just come on man, positivity - positivity and charisma and I'm your gal. But there's an awful lot of misogs (miserable old gits) out there. I don't need it.'
She added: 'I don't go much on stereotypical cutey pie, whatever, sexy, whatever.

'I want a guy that scoops me up and goes "I've got you, I don't care if you've got your make-up on or not, I'm happy to lie in bed with you and have Marmite on toast and a glass of milk".
'And just be a lovely positive, charismatic soul. I'm 50 and I'm like, "Dude, if you are not going to step up, step off and be gone. Sod off until someone fabulous comes along".
The blonde bombshell was unsure as to why her love life had suddenly dried up but explained she was more easily put off by men now.
She elaborated that she had clear deal breakers including bad kissers and a lack of eye contact.
