The last week has been a double whammy of heartache for celebrity make-up artist Lisa Armstrong. Not only did she see her ex-husband Ant McPartlin celebrate a second wedding anniversary with Anne-Marie Corbett, but Lisa and her long-term partner James Green unexpectedly called time on their relationship after three years together.
Despite the initial pain of finding herself single again, a source close to the star, 46, told us that strong Lisa “knows her worth” and is already looking to the future.
“She is heartbroken because she thinks she and James were a case of having met at the wrong time,” our source claimed. “They really did complement each other in so many ways, but she knows she’ll be OK.
“If the timing of their split hadn’t coincided with Ant and Anne-Marie’s anniversary, it wouldn’t have felt like such a kick in the teeth. But ultimately, Lisa no longer fears the dating pool because nothing and no one can hurt her more than Ant did. If she finds romance, she does, if not, she’s comfortable on her own.”

News of Lisa and James’s ‘ separation’ emerged last week after the electrician reportedly moved out of her £3.85 million London home.
A source told the Daily Mail last week they “don’t really know what has gone wrong” between the former couple.
“The two of them were only on a swanky holiday together in the Caribbean or somewhere about eight weeks ago,” they said, adding, “He was with her one day, and he just wasn’t with her the next day. There was no inkling or anything.”
According to our source, James’s recent 40th birthday may have inspired a change of heart that left him reconsidering his priorities and, in turn, may have left girlfriend Lisa feeling “second best”.

“Even though she and James had an amazing time together and shared plenty of incredible memories, she’d felt him changing in recent months,” our source said. “She wasn’t sure whether him turning 40 was anything to do with it, but she felt him pulling away from her and making other things a priority over their relationship.”
The pair started dating in 2020 when father-of-two James was estranged from his wife Kirsty, and two years after Lisa’s bitter divorce from I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! presenter Ant in 2018.
Their unforeseen break-up came as a sad shock to many of her fans, particularly because the couple often shared cosied-up photos on social media.
In June, Lisa posted a snap of a bouquet of flowers bought for her by handyman James. She said, “Thank...
