Coronation Street star Lucy Fallon has stepped out with her new 'boyfriend' following a date night at a fancy London restaurant.

Last year Lucy split from her long-term boyfriend Tom Leech but quickly sparked rumours that she was growing close to YouTube Joe Weller.

However fast forward to June 2021 and it seems that she's now loved-up with footballer Ryan Ledson who plays for Preston North End.

Lucy and Ryan were spotted leaving STK, a restaurant in London, following a date night and they were all smiles in the photos.

It appears that the couple have actually been together for quite some time because they flew off to Portugal together last month and now she's shared a photo alongside him on Instagram.
