Sheridan’s new project comes after she confirmed her split from ex-fiancé Jamie Horn last month – a year after they welcomed their son Billy together.
The couple shared a statement addressing their break up to The Sun, earlier this month, which read: ‘It is with great sadness that we have decided to have some time apart.’
‘We both remain completely committed to raising our beautiful boy Billy together. We ask that you respect our privacy during this difficult time. Thank you.’
A source told OK! magazine at the time: ‘Sheridan is struggling to get through the split. She put him out there for everyone to see and she really thought he was The One.’

The insider also claimed that splitting from Jamie brought back pain Sheridan felt after losing her father Colin, who died from cancer, in 2016.
‘She’s devastated. This has brought back all the feelings of missing her dad because he was her tower of strength,’ the source added.
‘In her heart she’s hoping they can make it right, but it doesn’t look like there’s any way back. They have a baby together and it’s tough. She’s heartbroken.’
Sheridan and Jamie first began dating in 2018 after meeting on Tinder and reportedly got engaged after just three months together.
Jamie is said to have proposed to Sheridan in May 2018 and the couple were living together in a rented property in North London.
Sheridan’s ex Jamie had appeared onscreen alongside her in a one-off documentary, titled Sheridan Smith: Becoming Mum, she filmed for ITV. It was released in 2020 and followed her pregnancy as a first time mum.
