Jessie Wallace spotted cosying up with mystery man just six months after splitting from boyfriend Tim Arnold
The 44-year-old enjoyed a night on the town with the gent - who was carrying a bottle of wine
EASTENDERS actress Jessie Wallace has been spotted enjoying a night out with a mystery man.
The 44-year-old split from her ex-crack addict boyfriend Tim Arnold in February of this year – after he became ‘tired’ of fame.
But it looks like the star has put the heartbreak behind her and found someone new judging by these images.
Looking very relaxed, Jessie was seen strolling arm in arm down the street in Liverpool with the gent as they left a pub in the early hours of the morning.
Dressed in a pretty floral dress and contrasting biker boots, the soap beauty looked both casual and cool.
Her companion could be seen clutching a bottle of wine as they headed towards a taxi and drove off into the night together.
Jessie was in Liverpool for the latest leg of the Chicago UK tour, in which she plays Matron ‘mama’ Morton.
Taking over from Sam Bailey, Jessie – who is no stranger to theatre – stars alongside John Partridge and Hayley Tamaddon.
Earlier this year Jessie – who plays Kat Moon in EastEnders – split from Tim, who she had first started dating in 2012 after being introduced at the British Soap Awards.
Tim, 40, – who is the godson of Jessie’s co-star June Brown – confirmed the news and revealed he wanted to distance himself from fame – despite the fact he auditioned for The Voice last year.
Back in February he said: “People just want to know about the celebrities you know or have been with. I am tired of it.”
Jessie has had her share of heartache in the past.
In 2011 she had been due to walk down the aisle with Vince Morse, but called it all off on their wedding day after discovering he had been sending explicit texts to an ex.
Before that she was with policeman Dave Morgan who she met in 2007.
Although sharing a daughter together, seven-year-old Tallulah, that relationship failed to go the distance.
She then moved on to Andy Burton, who was six years her junior.
That relationship came to an end when he spoke to the press about their romance.
But maybe now she’s met her Prince Charming?
