Denise Van Outen, 50, shares her dating struggles as she admits she wouldn't have a love life without dating apps as she looks for partner again after Jimmy Barba split


Denise Van Outen has revealed she relies on dating apps to meet men as finding potential suitors is harder since moving to the countryside.

Denise also notes that being a single mother to her teenage daughter means that she simply cannot go to the pub during the week to meet someone, with the app her only way of communicating with guys. Six months later, she went public with Jimmy, who she met through All Saints singer Shaznay Lewis, at the Grand Prix Ball and the pair enjoyed their first holiday together after jetting to Marbella. It's all over: Denise began dating commodities trader Eddie Boxshall in 2015 and while the couple were never formally engaged they had announced they planned to marry, splitting in 2022 (pictured in 2015)
