Is Kym Marsh dating her personal trainer?
Kym Marsh is reportedly dating her 23-year-old personal trainer.
The 37-year-old Coronation Street star - who had her divorce from EastEnders actor Jamie Lomas finalised last month - spent Valentine's Day in Paris with Matt Baker, according to the Daily MIrror.
Kym tweeted after her romantic trip: "Literally having the best weekend EVER!!!!! #luckygirl #lifeisgood."
And Matt teased on Twitter: "Le weekend ?."
The pair travelled to Paris with friends, but insiders told the newspaper their friendship has blossomed into romance in recent weeks.
A spokesman for the mum-of-three said: "Kym and Matt are close friends but are not in a relationship."
Matt helped Kym lose 10lb when her marriage to former Hollyoaks star Jamie hit the rocks last summer.
