The outing came shortly after the actress revealed she had found happiness again with her new mystery man after the pair enjoyed a Valentine’s Day date.

Speak with The sun on SundayJennifer admitted, “I recently spent time with someone and he makes me feel happy.

“I look forward to seeing him and our time together is always wonderful.”

The pair were first spotted together in December on a walk in Cheshire, but Jennifer chose not to name him publicly at the time.

The star also admitted that before meeting her new man, she tried celebrity dating app Raya but never actually went on a date.

She explained: “I tried that celebrity dating app, Raya, but I never got on a date.

“I prefer to meet someone and get a feel for them in real life before I start dating, so that app was quickly deleted.”

Jennifer added that her work, playing Mercedes in the Cheshire soap and being a mother to Daye, took up so much of her time that she was unable to meet strangers on the app.
