Chelsy Davy rubbed shoulders with rock royalty as nightclub Chinawhite reopened in its new West End home.

The club has been closed since December, but had a glitzy relaunch last night in Winsley Street, near Oxford Street.

Into the Woods: Jo, Tyrone and Leah

Chelsy, 24, said to be rekindling her romance with Prince Harry, turned up with a group of female friends, while Jo Wood — still showing her paces on Strictly Come Dancing — arrived with her children Tyrone, 24, and Leah, 31.

Rock royalty: Noel Gallagher with Sara MacDonald

Noel Gallagher, a regular at the club's former incarnation in Air Street, checked out the new venue with his smiling partner Sara MacDonald.

Quirky: Natalie Imbruglia shows off her specs

And singer Natalie Imbruglia needed a pair of chunky black glasses to watch the action.

The celebrity hangout is renowned for its luxurious interior and high-profile guests. Its original site in Soho was taken back by the landlord for redevelopment.

The club is now on the site of the former Wax Bar. It has been given an Indonesian look, with a 50-seater restaurant and bar.
