They were joined by a host of Love Island contestants at the event including some of this year's Casa Amor stars Diamante Laiva and Ellie Jackson.
It comes after Katherine claimed she won't take part in Strictly Come Dancing because she's not ready to chat on her husband.
The BBC show has long been known for the 'curse' that befalls some contestants who end up dating their dance partner, despite some being already in relationships.
And in an exclusive interview with MailOnline, the comedian noted that she would decline the dance show because she's not ready to be unfaithful to her partner Bobby Koostra - before quipping that it doesn't mean she wouldn't change her mind in the future.
She divulged: 'I would, but I don't think I'm a good enough dancer, and I'm not ready to cheat on my husband, but down the road.'
Katherine added of the dreaded Strictly curse: 'I would be excited. I would be welcoming the curse.'
The TV star and Bobby were childhood sweethearts at high school and reconnected decades later before marrying and having two children together - Fenna, two, and Fred, three.
Katherine isn't the only celebrity shunning Strictly, with Gemma Collins declaring she won't take part due to the scandal surrounding the show.
Strictly is currently facing its biggest crisis in its 20 years, as a wave of complaints from past celebrity contestants have been made in recent months over claims of 'abuse' and 'bullying'.

Professional Graziano Di Prima, 30, was axed from the show following claims he hit and spat at his dancing partner Zara McDermott, 27, during rehearsals.
Further reports said he had been accused of 'chasing' after Zara while 'screaming abuse,' leaving her so frightened that she 'locked herself in a toilet', as well as 'called her nasty names, asked if she had gained weight and was forceful' leaving her 'visibly demoralised' and 'in tears.'
Weeks before, Giovanni Pernice, 33, was suspended while a BBC probe is conducted over claims of off-camera misconduct made by Amanda Abbington, 50, and two other former celeb partners.
Meanwhile in the chat, Katherine opened up about her parenting style, quipping that she's more like her children's grandmother than their mother as she's always treating them with sweets.
Katherine, who also has a 15-year-old daughter Violet from a previous relationship, said: 'I used to think I was my baby's dad, because I work and my husband stays at home, but I've realised I'm the baby's grandmother, because I'm always giving them sweets, and I'm really fun, and I'm really old.
'So Violet was raised my her mom, and I'm like a fun grandma for the youngest two. I'm like, 'Sure let's do it!' I'm like a camp, eccentric grandmother, who'll take them on nice trips, and have fun, and I never say no.'
Detailing her attachment parenting style, she went on: 'I'm actually there all the time, but I'm like a live-in grandma. I'm about to go tour in the autumn, and then I will be away a little bit, but so far, I'm like an attachment parent.
'I still sleep with the babies – I'm too hands-on some would say, but the babies are obsessed with me. They will vomit if I go into another room, so I had to pull it back.'
Katherine previously opened up about her life as a mother, admitting she's getting better at embracing her role as a father after claiming her marriage has 'taken a back seat'.
