THREE years after red-carding Ryan Giggs, his ex-wife Stacey has finally found love again – in the arms of The Wanted star Max George.

I can reveal the lovebirds are so serious she has already introduced the singer, who was once engaged to former Corrie star Michelle Keegan, to her kids.

Heart-throb Max, 30, is a regular visitor to the £3.5million mansion 40-year-old Stacey used to share with Manchester United legend and current Wales boss Ryan, and is the first person she has dated since the end of her marriage.

A source said: “Stacey has always been a massive fan of The Wanted and hit it off with Max straight away when they were introduced at a local pub in Manchester.

“They haven’t been flaunting their romance like teenagers, but Max has been staying over at her house and the kids are cool with it.

“He’s a really friendly, down-to-earth guy and they get on great together.

“Stacey deserves all the happiness she can get.

“She’s a diamond who has been through the mill, thanks to Ryan’s philandering.

“He totally humiliated her during their marriage, but she kept her dignity and has now moved on.

“And Max is quite a catch. She’s been grinning like the Cheshire Cat.”

Stacey and Max — who was on the books of Championship side Preston North End before an injury ended his fledgling footballing career — met at the John Gilbert pub in picturesque Worsley two months ago.

They have also been spotted in the Worsley Old Hall country house boozer, as well as in the bar of the local Marriott hotel.

Max has previously been linked to Sports Illustrated model Nina Agdal and actress Lindsay Lohan.

Meanwhile, Stacey was married to love rat Ryan for ten years and they have two young children, son Zach and daughter Liberty.

After they split up in 2016, Stacey sought half of his £40million fortune in her divorce battle.

The marriage broke down because she grew tired of his serial womanising. The final straw was when Ryan, 45, was linked with a PR executive.

His previous affairs had included an eight-year relationship with Natasha Giggs, the wife of his own brother Rhodri.

He also cheated on Stacey with Big Brother star Imogen Thomas and even took out a gagging order in a bid to keep it secret.

Stacey will be hoping her new romance with Max will draw a line under that All Time Low.
