Nicole Scherzinger has revealed that she went down a spiritual path to cope with her breakup from Lewis Hamilton.

The two celebrities parted ways earlier this year after years of being together, and it seems it was a tough one to take for Scherzinger.

She has told The Sun that she indulged in spirituality in an effort to rediscover her "core" after the tough split. Scherzinger said:

"I got really deep into my spirituality. I know that's not what you really talk about over here but for me it's been my saviour. A lot of time in relationships people lose themselves - they lose that sparkle, that shine, their purpose and how 'schmazing' they can be. For me, I had to get back to my core, my centre, my soul."

The US beauty meanwhile dismissed speculation that she had a passionate reconciliation recently with Hamilton in a hotel.

She said: "We're just friends. Just friends. We just, um, met up to speak that night. That's all."

Scherzinger meanwhile is currently a judge on the current series of the UK X Factor, which is due to run until mid-December.
