"She Needs A Breather": Lisa Armstrong's Best Friend Hopes She Will "Hit It Off" With A New Beau Very Soon, According To Reports

Ant McPartlin’s estranged wife, Lisa Armstrong, is going through challenging times now, as the couple is finalizing their divorce after a 23-year relationship and an 11-year marriage.

The divorce process includes $80 million and custody battle regarding their properties and even their pet dog, as Ant is refusing to give her sole custody of their labrador called Hurley. So, as a payback and revenge, McPartlin’s ex-wife named her new cosmetics collection, “Lisa Loves Hurley,” following the custody battle.

Lisa’s been going through hell behind closed doors. Craig knows how much she needs a breather, so he has booked a trip for them to stay in the best resort in Cabo.

Taking on his role as the best pal, the source added that Craig is planning to encourage Lisa to realize “how much of a catch she is.” He is also pushing her to try out online dating apps as part of her search for a new fling and has spoken to her about moving on, which she has agreed “now is as good as time as any.”

Lisa Armstrong’s alleged boyfriend

Nine months ago, the 42-year-old was rumored to have a boyfriend, but apparently, she doesn’t date him now. Lisa Armstrong was spotted on a cozy date with a chef, James Howarth, at the time. A source revealed:

They were extremely tactile with one another, and Lisa was clearly enjoying the attention. He was just making her laugh all the time. They took part in the quiz but didn’t really pay much attention to it. They seemed only to have eyes for each other. It was like no one else was in the room — it was lovely to see.

Well, Ant McPartlin evidently moved on pretty fast, being committed to his PA, Anne-Marie Corbett. Maybe, it’s time for Lisa Armstrong to overcome pain and give a chance to someone new as well?
