Claire Sweeney looked as glamorous as ever in a sparkling white jumpsuit as she left a chic meal following her split from ex-boxer Ricky Hatton on Tuesday.

The Coronation Street actress, 53, looked fantastic as she posted a festive photo of herself posing in front of a Christmas tree on Instagram.

Claire turned heads in the figure-hugging, long-sleeved outfit, which tied around her slim waist with a sparkling belt.

The former Brookside star added inches to her frame with a pair of sky-high metallic platform heels, while also adding snake earrings and a red manicure.

Claire dressed up for the evening at The Ivy restaurant in Liverpool as she enjoyed a fancy meal with her boyfriend Kyle John Craggs.

While she seemed to be having a fun and festive evening, Claire’s split from boxer Ricky was revealed earlier this month.

Claire and Ricky have reportedly ended their eight-month romance after starting a secret romance on Dancing On Ice last year.

At the time, it was reported that the pair bonded over their love of Only Fools And Horses and their fun sense of humor.

Before going their separate ways, Claire previously explained that she and Ricky had known each other for 25 years before sparks flew between them.

At the time, the boxing champion said it was “nice” that they were able to reconnect after the end of their respective relationships.

Claire was single after her split from ex Daniel Reilly, with whom she shares son Jaxon, in 2017, and Ricky, who has three children, was a free agent after his romance with beautician Angela Blemmings ended two years ago.

Ricky said he found love with Claire when he least expected it, when he took part in Dancing On Ice last year.

The welterweight boxer previously admitted: ‘I didn’t go to Dancing On Ice to find romance, I just went in hoping I wouldn’t break my bloody neck.

‘I’ve known Claire for a while. I’ve met her through tears at a few events and at several events.

“Every time we spoke we clicked and got along.

“We were both training in Altrincham, Claire is in Coronation Street and she’s from Liverpool, so we were training at the same time.

‘While we were training for skating, we immediately got to work. And when we traveled to London, where her show actually took place, we felt even better.”
