Kym ended her whirlwind romance with toyboy Samuel, 29, who is 19 years her junior, after six months of being together.

She ended her romance with the performer before Christmas, after the pair finished touring with the show 101 Dalmatians: The Musical.

The singer was forced to defend herself after revealing her romance with Samuel, who is the same age as her oldest son, having gushed on social media that he is her ‘soulmate.’

Amid her break-up, sources told The Sun at the time that once their tour finished, Kym found it more difficult to spent time with him.

A source told the publication: ‘Kym and Sam fell head over heels when they first met and couldn’t wait to tell the world.

‘But once Kym’s role in 101 Dalmatians ended it became harder to spend time together and some of the magic they had at the beginning just disappeared.

‘It’s such a shame, especially before Christmas but Kym surrounded herself with family.’

Kym shares her daughter actress Emilie, 28, with ex David Cunliffe.

Kym is also mother to 14-year-old daughter Poppy whom she shares with ex-husband and Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas, as well son Archie who as born 18 weeks premature in 2009 and passed away shortly after birth

Kym and Jamie first met on a train as they made their way to the 2007 TV Quick Awards before developing a romance in July 2008 – a year before Kym’s divorce from ex-husband Jack Ryder.

She married a third time in 2021, when she tied the knot with soldier Scott Ratcliff, before their split was announced in May 2023.

Kym previously shared a touching tribute to the father of her eldest children David, with whom she shares Emilie and David Jr, 31.

Despite their split in 1999, the pair have remained close, with the singer calling the builder ‘one of my best friends in the world.’

They first met in 1994 in a karaoke bar before going on to welcome their two children, before separating in 1999, shortly before Kym found fame as a contestant on TV talent show Popstars.

However, they have since built a strong co-parenting and friendship dynamic, with Kym regularly sharing their moments together on social media.
