Rihanna looks leggy in a thigh-grazing miniskirt as she parties in Mayfair during another covert stay in London

The last time she was in London, it was a secret stay with boyfriend Hassan Jameel.

But Rihanna looked like she was making quite a habit of going incognito in the city when she emerged from a Mayfair nightclub in the early hours of Wednesday.

The musician had been partying with friends when she was pictured leaving a night spot by the back exit at 2am, even though very few people knew she was in the UK.

Rihanna showed off her long legs in a thigh-grazing miniskirt, which bizarrely featured a second waistband over the top.

The additional destroyed skirt that she layered on top fastened with one button and exposed the white pocket linings at a frayed hem.

Though an oversized shirt hid her figure, Rihanna elongated her 5ft 8in frame and added glamour to the ensemble.

It was not widely known that the pop star was in the British capital, but she made her presence known after a late night in the West End. 

It was previously suggested that Rihanna may have bagged an invite to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's wedding at Windsor Castle over the weekend.

She met the Prince when she was in Barbados to celebrate the country's 50th anniversary of independence back in November 2016.

Though Rihanna dismissed the reports earlier this month, replying to a reporter: 'Why would you think I'm invited?' after they asked if she was attending. 

She added about their one-time meeting: 'Okay, you [the reporter] met me. You think you're coming to my wedding? Am I coming to yours?'

Rihanna is believed to be in London to visit Saudi businessman boyfriend Hassan, for the first time since December.

At the time, OK! Online reported that Rihanna had been making numerous visits to the UK in search of a more permanent residence.

One source told the publication: 'Rihanna loves life in the city of London and she can actually move around here without being pursued by paps all the time.

'It's surprisingly low key and she only gets spotted by fans and photographers when she wants to be.'

While in London this week, Rihanna was not able to join her Ocean's 8 co-stars on the promotional trail for the film in New York.

Actresses Sarah Paulson, Awkwafina, Cate Blanchett and Mindy Kaling have been attended the worldwide photo call at The Metropolitan Museum of Art on Tuesday evening.  

Rihanna and Helena Bonham Carter also appear alongside the women in an all-female cast.
