Actress Sheridan Smith has reportedly split from her boxer boyfriend. The Two Pints of Lager star started dating ex-welterweight boxing star Dave “Rocky” Ryan, 40, in October.
But a source confided that their relationship was over as Sheridan, 42, appeared on a dating app. A source told The Sun that Sheridan was the one who had decided to end the relationship.
They addressed the reason why, telling the publication: “Sheridan decided to end things with Dave a few weeks ago after their romance fizzled out. Thankfully her stage show has kept her busy and there is no bad blood after they ended on good terms.”
