Who is Anne-Marie Corbett?

Anne-Marie Corbett met Ant McPartlin when she was his personal assistant.

She has been employed by the same London-based management company as Ali Astall, Dec Donnelly’s wife, for over a decade — but only began working closely with Ant in 2017.

Anne-Marie separated from her husband Scott in October 2017.

The Sun on Sunday’s sources told how she had been by Ant’s side through his “lowest depths”.

Her unwavering support helped him on the road to recovery when he was convicted of drink-driving.

When did Anne-Marie Corbett and Ant McPartlin start dating?

In March 2018 Anne-Marie and Ant were first seen together as a couple.

She was pictured walking Ant’s dog with him in April of the same year after he left rehab.

In June 2018 they were spotted again enjoying a shopping trip at Harrods, with Ant looking healthy and happy.

In August 2021 the couple got married at St Michael's Church in Heckfield, after getting engaged the previous Christmas.

The couple's stunning nuptials were attended by the bride and groom's closest family and friends.

This of course included Ant's long-running TV partner and close pal Dec, who acted as best man.

Before the wedding, a source told The Sun: “Neither of them want the razzmatazz of a showbiz wedding. They just want their nearest and dearest with them.

“It will be a simple but beautiful ceremony, without the glare of the spotlight.

“They’re both extremely excited and can’t wait to tie the knot.

"But they’re desperate to keep a lid on things. Those who know have been told it’s top secret."

Do Ant and Anne-Marie have children?

The Britain's Got Talent star and Anne Marie have one child together.

They shared the news of the birth with a sweet black and white snap of Ant holding their newborn.

They captioned the post: "Welcome to the family.

"Baby is beautiful, Mummy’s a legend, Sisters are over the moon. Dad’s a mess!"

Just last month Anne Marie looked glowing as she headed home from a night out with Ant hand in hand.

Reports came out in February 2024 revealing that the couple were expecting a baby.

This is Ant's very first child as he and his previous wife Lisa didn't have any children together — but they do share a dog, a labrador named Hurley.

However, Anne-Marie does have two children from her previous marriage.

Who is Ant's first wife Lisa Armstrong?

Lisa Armstrong was born in Oxford on October 26, 1976.

She won a place at Brit School for Performing Arts & Technology in Croydon, south London at the age of 14.

Before becoming a singer in the pop band Deuce during the 1990s, Lisa began her career as a professional dancer.

Leaving her music career behind, she became a make-up artist and is the current head of hair and make-up on Strictly Come Dancing, following spells on X Factor and Britain's Got Talent.

Lisa also worked on a number of the programmes Ant starred in, including Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway — before being fired in February 2018 as producers believed her presence would be 'too awkward'.

And she was also axed from Britian's Got Talent in December 2018 after infuriating the show's producers with her "attention-seeking" behaviour on social media.

A source said: “Lisa was taken off Britain’s Got Talent because bosses have seen the way she constantly courts attention on social media.

“They don’t want someone working on the show who behaves in this manner.

"Hair and make-up artists on the show need to be behind the scenes, but Lisa constantly tries to keep herself in the spotlight by using social media to get publicity.”

Lisa and Ant met at a pop concert at Newcastle City Hall in 1994.

She was performing with Deuce, while he was rapping alongside Dec in their group PJ & Duncan.

Ant proposed to Lisa after a lengthy romance on April 26, 2005 while they were on holiday in Dubai.

They tied the knot on July 22, 2006 in Taplow, Buckinghamshire.

She moved into her new West London home in 2020, the same year her divorce from Ant was finalised, with her reportedly receiving a £31million settlement.
