Kym Marsh packed on the PDA with new toyboy boyfriend Samuel Thomas as they arrived at Manchester train station on Sunday.
The former Coronation Street star, 48, was seen out and about with the actor, 29, for the first time since announcing their romance.
They were spotted kissing as they arrived at the station ahead of their 101 Dalmatians shows at The Palace Theatre.
Kym cut a summery figure in a black floral minidress which boasted a plunging V-neckline and short sleeves.
She kept comfortable in a pair of white trainers and shielded from the sun behind a pair of sunglasses.
The pair seemed in high spirits as they stepped out together for the first time as they explored the city.
Kym is currently playing Cruella de Vil in the UK & Ireland tour of 101 Dalmatians The Musical, alongside her boyfriend Samuel, who stars as Tom Dearly.
It comes days after Kym was forced to defend herself for revealing she is dating Samuel who is the same age as her son.
At 29, Samuel – who she refers to as ‘the most amazing man ever’ – is the same age as her eldest child, David Cunliffe.
Kym’s friends are reportedly worried that her new romance with a younger man could all end in heartache if it ‘fizzles out’.
The soap star has the support of her pals who are apparently ‘happy’ she has found someone, but they are said to have concerns that she could end up hurt.
The actress is a parent to son David, 29, and daughter Emilie, 27, from a former relationship with builder David Cunliffe.
The couple, who met in a Lancashire pub, separated in 1999, shortly before Kym found fame as a contestant on TV talent show Popstars, where she would become a member of short-lived pop group Hear’Say.
