By celebrity standards especially, it's been a fairly long engagement.

So Danielle Lloyd has every reason to let her hair down and celebrate now that preparations for her wedding to Wolverhampton Wolves footballer Jamie O'Hara really are getting underway.

And the 28-year-old certainly did so at her Liverpool hen do last night.

Surrounded by a gaggle of equally imbibed girlfriends, Danielle danced up a storm in Playground nightclub.

She mixed things up at one point by removing her heels and hopping onto one of the sofas- possibly to afford her guests a better view of her moves.

Danielle gamely downed shots in between taller beverages, as befitting the belle of the ball.

Meanwhile Katie Price put thoughts of her own nuptials to Argentine model Leandro Penna aside to join Danielle in celebrating her hen do..

The mother-of-three, 33, tried to steal the limelight from the bride-to-be in her sparkly ho tpants, black ruffled top and knee high boots as they hit the city centre. 

Although she made no secret of the fact that she was planning to drink plenty of alcohol, Danielle steered away from the traditional hen costumes of L plates, veil and sashes.

Last month, Danielle revealed she was taking antidepressants again to help her cope with the stress of planning the wedding to Wolverhampton Wolves footballer Jamie O'Hara, 25.

She originally started taking the drugs after suffering post-natal depression following the births of her two sons, Archie, now 22 months, and Harry, now 10 months.

She told OK! magazine last month: 'When I was off them I started feeling snappy and just down in general so I do need them, especially with the stress of the wedding.'

Her hen night comes after a tough start to the year for Danielle, who had to have her new E cup implants removed in an emergency operation after they started to swell, leaving her with AA cup cleavage.

Danielle and Jamie were originally set to wed in June 2011, but put their plans on hold after Danielle fell pregnant with Harry.

The couple got engaged in Paris in December 2009 following a whirlwind eight month courtship.
