Lisa Armstrong has a new look and is back on the dating scene after telling pals she’s ready to find love again.
And the make-up artist, who split from her ex, electrician James Green, in 2023, is hoping that she can meet her new man the traditional way.
‘Lisa really wants to do a reunion show with her band, Deuce, so that she can boost her confidence and find a man,’ a source tells Closer. ‘She doesn’t want to go on an app, she wants to find love the old-fashioned way.’
Deuce released four top-30 tracks in the UK charts during 1995 and 1996, before splitting in 1997. But the band have remained close and Lisa thinks reuniting will be the key for finding romance.
‘Being around her old band mates might help with her confidence because it reminds Lisa of who she used to be. In her worst times after the divorce from Ant, she had felt like a shell of herself. But now she’s back and feeling more confident than ever, and she wants to seize the moment,’ the source says.
Lisa, 47, was married to Ant McPartlin, 48, for 11 years until they announced their split in early 2018. Ant began dating the couple’s former PA, Anne-Marie Corbett, 46, with the pair marrying in August 2021. They welcomed their son, Wilder, earlier this year. Lisa also moved on with James, 41, back in 2020, who moved into her £3.85 million home in London. However, the pair called it quits in a bitter break-up three years later.
‘She’s shocked her pals with a new look and they can tell she is serious about finding a man – and it feels big,’ our source adds. ‘They don’t want her to get hurt again like she did with Ant, but they admire how she’s picking herself back up again and dusting herself off. They’re all rallying around her as they feel like they’ve seen the spark back in her eye.’
