Ant’s romance with Anne-Marie emerged on Saturday, five months after his divorce from wife of twelve years Lisa, who has told fans on Twitter that her ex hasn’t ‘had the decency’ to contact her regarding his new relationship.
An insider told the paper that Lisa has been left furious by the fling, which is believed to have started amid his drink-driving woes over the last few months.
Lisa allegedly told her friends after the news broke: ‘The gloves are off. I will take him for every penny.”
With the PA a friend of the former couple, the source added: ‘Lisa has suspected something was going on for quite some time and feels let down by Anne-Marie.’

Personal assistant Anne-Marie was seen for the first time since the romance emerged on Sunday.
The 42-year-old kept a low profile in jeans and dark sunglasses as she arrived back at her home in New Malden on Sunday, hours after news of their relationship emerged.
Heartbroken by the news, Lisa took to Twitter to criticise her ex-husband’s new girlfriend of ‘breaking girl code’ by dating the troubled star.
Lisa revealed to her 122,000 followers that she invited Anne-Marie into their marital home and the woman had been both hers and Ant’s personal assistant.

The news is believed to have devastated make-up artist Lisa, who was with Ant for 18 years. At 5am Sunday morning she tweeted a broken heart emoji, signifying her upset.
Lisa then went on to reveal that she did not know about the romance and had only found out about the new relationship after reading about it in the media.
The 42-year-old I’m A Celebrity host announced his separation from Lisa earlier this year, with the pair filing for divorce in January.

Anne-Marie was present when Ant arrived at a police station in March to answer drink driving charges, and was also at his later court hearing.
After a Twitter follower asked whether or not she had been warned by Ant before it appeared in the media, she replied: ‘Nope. Just how you guys did.’
She then received a tweet of support from TV personality Nicola McLean, before replying: ‘Thanks babe and to think she was MY friend!! xx’
Another follower said ‘so much for the girl code’, to which Lisa answered: ‘Exactly!’
Lisa then replied to a follower to say that Anne-Marie was her friend and personal assistant to both her and Ant, adding that she let her ‘into OUR home’.

Just last week, Ant looked in high spirits as he was seen indulging in a spot of retail therapy with his PA at Harrods, Knightbridge.
The television host emerged from the famous luxury department story and headed to an awaiting vehicle with Anne, who was joined by her two young children, who she shares with her ex-husband Scott.
Anne-Marie has been employed by the same London-based management company as Declan Donnelly’s wife Ali Astall for ten years but began working closely with Ant only recently, according to The Sun.

Duo: His casual sighting at Harrods with Anne comes after Simon Cowell said he wants Ant to return for the next series of Britain’s Got Talent
His rumoured romance comes after Simon Cowell said that he wants Ant to return for the next series of Britain’s Got Talent.
BGT’s live final and semis went ahead without Ant for the first time in the show’s 11-year history.
Simon told The Sun: ‘It’s a wake-up call. It’s as simple as that. Maybe the pressure was more than I realised. I will support Ant when he comes back.
The music mogul, 58 has vowed to put psychiatrists in place to support him, after admitting he didn’t appreciate the pressure he was under before the rehab stint.
Ant stepped down from his presenting commitments when he was charged with drink-driving following a three car crash.
He was fined £86,000 and banned from the road for 20 months, after he was caught more than twice the legal limit following a crash in Richmond in March- with his mother in the car.
The presenter pleaded guilty to driving with 75 micrograms of alcohol in 100ml of breath, after his involvement in a three-car collision. The legal limit is 35 micrograms

McPartlin was arrested after losing control of his black Mini and smashing into two other cars, a Mini and a BMW, while driving in Richmond, west London on March 18.
The crash came after he formally announced he was divorcing his wife Lisa Armstrong after 19 years together.
Their decision to get divorced was announced in January, within weeks of the presenter’s return from Australia after filming I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!
Ant’s spokesman said at the time: ‘In response to the recent speculation in the media, Ant is very sad to announce that, after 11 years, he is ending his marriage to Lisa McPartlin.
‘Ant asks for privacy at this difficult time, for both himself, Lisa and their immediate families. No further statement will be made.’
