Hello @Poppysmum

If you go to your contacts section of your phone where you have saved people's numbers. If you delete the person from there the contact will soon delete from WhatsApp.

WhatsApp just replicates your phone contacts and Facebook friends so you need to delete them from your phone and not sync Facebook to remove them.

You can block them though so they can't contact you by tapping and holding on their photo and then selecting "block".
