Lisa Armstrong declares 'love is all you need' as she shows off heart-themed nails

Lisa Armstrong is in love and doesn’t care who know it.

The makeup artist, who was previously married to Ant McPartlin for 12 years, shared her feelings with her 144,000 followers on Instagram.

She showed a picture of her manicure, gushing “how cute?” and used the hashtag Love Is All You Need.

Lisa’s nails were painted simply in a nude colour and accessorised with tiny red love hearts.

The 44-year-old is an award-wining makeup artist, who has worked on hit shows like Britain’s Got Talent and Strictly Come Dancing.

She has been dating electrician James Green, 37, for nearly a year.

The loved-up pair first went public with their romance in August 2020 and the relationship seems to be going from strength to strength ever since.

Lisa divorced Ant in 2018. Despite years of Ant's success with his long-term TV partner Declan Donnelly, he had confessed a private sadness that he and Lisa hadn't been able to have a baby - which must have been a strain on them both, although Lisa has never publicly commented.

Lisa supported the Geordie multi-millionaire through his public battle against drug addiction before they split up.

She is reported to have received a £31 million settlement when their divorce was finalised last year.

They share custody of their chocolate Labrador Hurley.

The Saturday Night Takeaway star is set to marry his girlfriend and PA Anne-Marie Corbett in August this year, but Lisa has reportedly told friends that she will be abroad if possible and is “too happy to care” about them.

The ceremony is likely to be a much more low-key event than Lisa's big day with Ant in 2006, which was held at Cliveden House in Buckinghamshire, with many celebrities attending, including Dec, who acted as best man.

James was previously married for five years and has a daughter 14, and a son, 11. He left his wife Kirsty a few months before he started his relationship with Lisa.

James appeared in a loved-up picture on Lisa’s Instagram feed in February this year to mark Valentine’s Day.

It’s likely that Lisa will be returning to work on the next series of Strictly Come Dancing, which is due to start in the autumn.

Last year’s series was shortened and changed because of the pandemic, but show bosses are hoping that this year will be a full series lasting for the traditional 13 weeks.

This will mean that fans can enjoy Lisa’s talents in makeup for the Halloween and Blackpool themed episodes that have become her trademark.
