Ryan Thomas says he’s ‘still in trouble’ with fiancée Lucy Mecklenburgh for buying a house behind her back

RYAN Thomas admitted that he's "still in trouble" with fiancée Lucy Mecklenburgh for buying a house behind her back.

The former Corrie actor, 36, was branded a "very brave man" by the Towie star after he purchased his family a new pad without telling anyone back in February.

During an appearance on Lorraine earlier today, Ryan opened up about his latest charity work to help raise awareness for mental health and suicide.

But host Lorraine couldn't help but notice the "beautiful, beautiful kitchen" behind him during their chat.

She then pointed out that she was amazed that he got away with buying the property without talking it through with his other half first.

But Ryan confessed that he's still not in his fiancée's good books and said: "Lorraine, I'm still in trouble today. Trust me."

Ryan added: "We're not even in the house, it's a building site and I can't see the light at the end of the tunnel.

"Eventually it will be ok... but right now, everyone knows moving house is hard work, but I took more than I can chew with this house.

"But eventually, we're getting there, we will be happy."

Lucy announced the shocking news back in February on Instagram.
