Louis layered his tailored blazer over a crisp white shirt with blue plaid trim and slipped his feet into a pair of comfy white trainers.
Meanwhile Nancy showcased her unique sense of style in a chic black top which she teamed with a white ruffled skirt.
Carrying her furry jacket over her arm, the Lockerbie directed toted a bright red handbag and sported a smoky eye.

The documentarian, tied the knot with Nancy back in 2012, and in an appearance on The Receipts Podcast and revealed that he was first impressed by her ‘silky’ dance moves.
She told hosts Tolly & Audrey: ‘One of the key moments was when I saw her dancing to ”What’s Luv” by Fat Joe featuring Ashanti.
‘I’d been on three or four dates with her but I’ve never seen her on the dance floor and I always used to think that I was an okay dancer, well I liked to dance and I thought I was moving in time.
‘But when I saw her, I was like, ”oh my God, that’s what a really good dancer looks like.” She was just so sinuous and silky on the floor. And I thought, wow, she’s out of my league.’
Host Tolly then quipped: ”Sinuous and silky on the floor”. They don’t make them like you anymore Louis.’
During the interview, Louis also reflected on one of his more bizarre interviews, when he appeared in a much-publicised documentary with Jimmy Savile.
He said: ‘There’s so many weird people out there. I mean, the things I’m drawn to tend to be obviously people who are self-sabotaging, people who behave in ways that are illogical.
‘But what you find is oftentimes the thing that’s on the face of it, the weirdest, is not necessarily the weirdest, and the real or true weirdness goes deep.

‘The weirdest thing I went through as a professional journalist really was the whole Jimmy Savile affair, because it was the fact that someone who could be a predator, you know, prolific predator over a number of decades, actually harming people, but meanwhile be the toast of the establishment.
‘He was embraced by hospitals, by TV channels, by the royal family, by the political establishment, regarded as an exemplar of charitable fundraising, and then the double life.’
Louis previously revealed his wife Nancy suffered two miscarriages before the ‘traumatic’ birth of their third child.
He made the heartbreaking reveal in his 2019 autobiography Gotta Get Theroux This, which was released last month and reflects on both his professional and personal life.
While Louis is relatively private about his home and private life, in the book he spoke candidly in the book about his romances, his children and his former marriage woes.
Of their tragedy, he penned: ‘I cursed myself for the foolhardiness we’d shown in taking [Nancy] through the blood-letting of another round of human creation…
‘Getting to term [in her pregnancy] had been a trial, two had ended in miscarriage. There were tears on a weekend in Yosemite…
‘We’d been through nothing like that before. A language of grief and the social forms I was versed in did not seem adequate to the occasion.
‘But sadness was complete and if I’m honest, I didn’t understand what she was going through. It still seemed abstract to me whereas for Nancy the babies had been real’.
