EXC: Alison King’s ex-fiancé David Stuckey expecting baby with new girlfriend in WEEKS

Alison King’s ex-fiance, David Stuckey, is expecting a baby with his new girlfriend within weeks, MailOnline can exclusively reveal.

The Coronation Street star, 50, split with her toyboy partner, 41, just 12 months ago, parting ways ‘amicably’ after they drifted apart.

But now it can be revealed that the IT consultant has moved on with small business owner Jenny Burr – with a baby boy due later this month.

David lives with his new girlfriend, a single mother from Wilmslow, and they even enjoyed a family trip to Santorini last August with her son from a previous relationship. David also shares two sons with an ex-partner.

He was due to marry Alison, 50, in a Greek ceremony three years ago before their plans were thwarted by coronavirus restrictions.

A source told MailOnline: ‘It looks like David has moved on, with a baby boy due this month.

“There are tons of pictures on Facebook of him with his new girlfriend. They even went on holiday with the family to Santorini in Greece.’

It was on the Facebook account of her handmade stationery store that Jenny announced her pregnancy last month.

She wrote, “So for those of you who don’t know…we have some exciting news at SSD HQ!

‘I’m due mid-May, so in 4 weeks I’m taking a little break, which means you have the next few weeks to get your orders in!

‘Watch this space as we’re offering lots of discounts and last chance to buy items in the coming weeks!

“I will of course keep you posted when the baby arrives and when we reopen. I have some very exciting news and new products to share with you!’

MailOnline has reached out to David and Jenny for comment, as well as representatives for Alison.

David’s breakup with Alison was revealed last May.

The soap star planned to exchange vows with the IT consultant in Greece before coronavirus restrictions forced them to cancel their vows May 2020 ceremony with only a few weeks to go.

But the couple – who began dating in March 2018 – soon grew apart and parted amicably.

A source said: “Unfortunately, Alison and David have decided to part ways. They were very much in love for a long time, but eventually grew apart.

“They parted amicably and both wish each other well for the future.”

David popped the question with a ring he designed himself while on a romantic sunset cruise in Portugal – which they almost had to cancel thanks to a slew of ominous clouds on the horizon.

Officially proposed to her fiancé during an interview with OK! Magazine in 2019, the star also revealed she had “a hunch” that David might propose and made sure to bring a Rolex as an engagement gift for him during the trip.

She revealed that the proposal came just days before their one-year anniversary, explaining, “I had a hunch he was going to pop the question because he kept putting something on my finger and saying, ‘Okay, close your eyes and forget this is ever happened!”

We also talked about getting married. I think we’ve both gone from “no, we don’t ever have to get married” to “oh, we really want to get married!”‘

Alison explained that the lead up to the proposal wasn’t all smooth sailing as they “encountered black clouds over the sea as they drove to Albufeira harbour”.

However, with a team of dedicated crew members, the cruise went ahead as planned, and IT salesman David got down on his knees to pop the question with a ring he designed himself.

Alison gushed, “I had also bought him a Rolex as an engagement present. I said, “Yes, please,” and then I gave him the watch! It was perfect, even if it didn’t go according to plan!’

She discussed their age difference, claiming that he is “very mature already” and wanted someone with kids as he was a father himself.

With the proposal taking place over the summer, a source told The Sun at the time that Alison is “very excited” after her partner popped the question.

The source said some of Alison’s best friends in the cast, such as Kym Marsh and Jane Danson, were thrilled to hear of her engagement news.

They said, ‘Ali is so popular with everyone on the cobbles. They love it.

The actress, who is known for playing Carla Connor on Corrie, chronicled their love story and revealed that they met in March 2018 after being set up by their mutual personal trainer.

“The engagement is a nice surprise. Ali is over the moon. Ali has clearly endured heartbreak in the past. But she hopes those days are now firmly behind her. She is very excited about what the future holds.”

It comes after Alison broke off her engagement to Corrie sound engineer Adam Huckett in 2012. The couple share daughter Daisy, 10.

Despite getting engaged in September 2011 during a trip to Paris, it was revealed in October 2012 that the couple had split.

Alison then dated Hollyoaks assistant director Paul Slavin, after the couple were spotted together in 2016.
