Ant was reported to have handed over £31 million to Lisa, including their £5million home in West London, after an ‘eight-hour negotiation’.

She and ex-husband Ant confirmed their split following his stint in rehab in 2017 where he sought help for alcohol and painkiller addiction.

Following rehab, Ant took a year out from TV and he and Lisa parted ways, with their divorce being finalised in April 2020.

Earlier this year, Lisa revealed she and beau James, her first serious relationship since splitting from Ant, had got matching tattoos, showing off their identical inkings in an Instagram post.

In January Lisa and James marked their second Christmas together as a couple.
