She's up for an award

Lisa Armstrong looked stunning earlier today as she posed alone on the red carpet for the first time since she split with Ant McPartlin.

The professional make-up artist, 42, wowed as she arrived as a member of the Strictly Come Dancing team at the British Academy Television Craft Awards on Sunday (April 28).

Her followers rushed to the comments to let her know how great she looks.

One wrote: “Need your eyebrows! Can never get mine right.”

Another said: “You’re a beautiful lady!”

A third commented alongside a fire emoji: “Wow you’re looking great.”

A fourth told her: “Gorgeous senorita.”

A fifth wrote: “Lisa, a beautiful lady inside and out, every reason in the world to hold your head high.”

It follows a hint Lisa appeared to drop on social media, earlier this month, about a potential reunion with Ant.

The make-up artist ‘liked’ a tweet that offered a cryptic message about people who are destined to be together always ending up back with one another.

The tweet read: “People who are meant to be together find their way back, they may take a few detours, but they’re never lost.”

But if the confidence Lisa exuded on the red carpet is anything to go by, it’s not likely she needs a reunion of any kind.

It follows reports that their divorce proceedings had run into a kind of Brexit-style deadlock.

In October the pair were granted their decree nisi but in March, they reportedly hit a stalemate over certain terms of the separation.

Speaking to The Sun at the time, an unnamed source said the divorce case had hit “rock bottom”, adding: “It’s like Brexit. There’s no deal, no way forward and lots of bickering. It could eventually be decided by the courts.
