Lisa was over the moon last month when she received a heartfelt message from her boyfriend James Green on her 46th birthday.

The brunette beauty took to Instagram and shared heartwarming snaps of some of her birthday gifts, including a bottle of wine and a card from her partner.

The note from James read, “Happy Birthday Lisa, all my love, J xx.”

Ant is said to have handed £31 million to Lisa after an ‘eight-hour negotiation’, including their £5 million house in west London.

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

After rehab, Ant took a year off from TV and he and Lisa separated, with their divorce finalized in April 2020.

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

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

Lisa allegedly started dating James in early 2020 and went public with their relationship last August shortly after he split from wife Kirsty.
