Lisa Armstrong ‘says her dog Hurley has her back’ at 3am on day of divorce from Ant McPartlin, as she likes tweet from fan
LISA Armstrong has liked a 3am tweet from a fan who said her dog Harley “has her back”.
The make up artist had been leaning on the pooch as she geared up to divorce Ant McPartlin.
Trudi McLoughlin tweeted Lisa with a motivational message and a picture of her canine friend.
It said: “@lisaAmakeup amazing woman, this little fella has your back. Stay strong. Good things come to kind people.”
And the missive clearly resonated with Lisa, 41, as she favourited the tweet to show her appreciation.
The Sun this morning revealed Ant and Lisa were set to divorce today.
They were granted a decree nisi by Judge Alun Jenkins at the Central Family Court in under 30 seconds.
Sources say he has admitted adultery on the grounds that his relationship with Anne-Marie Corbett, 42, began after the break-up.
A source said: “It’s taken some time to iron things out but after several months their marriage will officially be over in a matter of seconds.”
Ant announced the end of their marriage in January.
The Sun on Sunday told in June how Ant found love with personal assistant Anne-Marie.
Under divorce laws, he technically has to admit adultery because he was still married when the relationship began.
Sources said Ant and Lisa, who were teenage sweethearts, are negotiating a financial settlement.
Since then their messy break up has played out in the public eye, with Strictly Come Dancing make up artist Lisa making a number of public jibes about their broken marriage.
The TV star had previously been warned it could take up to five years to divorce.
And earlier this year The Sun exclusively revealed how Ant had pleaded with Lisa, 41, to speed up the case.
A source said at the time: “Ant called her…He begged her to hurry up with the divorce because he just wants to move on with his life.
“He is happy to give her what she wants, including the house, and to be very generous with a settlement.
“But Lisa is being very canny, and biding her time.
“Obviously, their separation has been played out in public — and Lisa’s lawyers have told her it all bodes well for her because she looks like the wronged party now Ant is with Anne-Marie.”
