On To Bigger & Better Things…
Just moments after her divorce to ant mcPartlin was granted, Lisa armstrong appeared on national TV on Strictly Come Dancing's popular spin-off show It Takes Two. It was a defiant move – and one that proves Lisa, 42, is refusing to be held back by the breakdown of her 11-year marriage.
