The last week has been a double whammy of heartache for celebrity make-up artist Lisa Armstrong. Not only did she see her ex-husband Ant McPartlin celebrate a second wedding anniversary with Anne-Marie Corbett, but Lisa and her long-term partner James Green unexpectedly called time on their relationship after three years together.
Despite the initial pain of finding herself single again, a source close to the star, 46, told us that strong Lisa “knows her worth” and is already looking to the future.
“She is heartbroken because she thinks she and James were a case of having met at the wrong time,” our source claimed. “They really did complement each other in so many ways, but she knows she’ll be OK.
“If the timing of their split hadn’t coincided with Ant and Anne-Marie’s anniversary, it wouldn’t have felt like such a kick in the teeth. But ultimately, Lisa no longer fears the dating pool because nothing and no one can hurt her more than Ant did. If she finds romance, she does, if not, she’s comfortable on her own.”
News of Lisa and James’s ‘ separation’ emerged last week after the electrician reportedly moved out of her £3.85 million London home.
