Ex Coronation Street star Lucy-Jo Hudson shares first pic with new man Lewis Devine following split from Alan Halsall
The star split from husband Alan Halsall for a second time earlier this year
LUCY-JO Hudson has made her romance with boyfriend Lewis Devine Instagram official.
The former Coronation Street star, who split from husband Alan Halsall earlier this year, gushed over her new man as she posted a heartfelt birthday tribute.
Sharing a snap of Lewis wrapping his arms around her at a party, Lucy professed her love for the actor, who she met while in panto last winter.
She wrote: "How are you mine? 💗💙 I am beyond lucky to have found you baby ! Happy Birthday 🎁.
"You are one of the kindest, sweetest, funniest, most talented... and beautiful souls I’ve ever met!
"I can’t wait to celebrate this special day with you.... 🎉🥂🍾🎂 love you gorgeous 💋 xxx."
The Sun on Sunday revealed Lucy had struck up a romance with Lewis, who played her title character’s best mate Muddles in Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs, in July.
In a further twist worthy of a Coronation Street plot, Lewis and Alan had become firm friends during the run at the Theatre Royal in St Helens, Merseyside.
An insider said at the time: “Lucy-Jo and Lewis shared an instant chemistry but obviously she was married and didn’t act on it.
“After trying for months, she and Alan called time on their marriage and something slowly developed with Lewis.
"They went public to their friends with their romance a few weeks ago and attended a wedding of one of Lewis’s relations together, but the news has been hard for Alan to take.
"He became mates with Lewis during the panto run, and they often hung out as a trio."
However Lucy and Lewis, 30, have clearly gone from strength to strength with the star already introducing her new boyfriend to the daughter she shares with ex Alan, five-year-old Sienna-Rae.
