Kym's love triangle

Jack Ryder, Kym Marsh and Jamie Lomas

It sounds like the kind of plot dreamt up by bored telly scriptwriters, but Corrie actress Kym Marsh has found herself caught up in a real-life soap love triangle.

Having split from her former EastEnder husband Jack Ryder in April, the erstwhile Hear'Say singer has recently been seeing Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas – but the transition won't have been easy for either one of the former couple.

"I would expect Kym feels quite torn about it," said the pal. "The split with Jack was amicable and she wouldn't want to upset him, but she's happy now."

"It's sad for Jack, but he can't compete with a Hollyoaks hunk now. It's not surprising she's gone for a good-looking soap star as that's why she was attracted to Jack in the first place."

Said another friend: "Kym can't stop talking about Jamie and when they aren't together, she constantly texts him." Well, it would be pretty odd if she texted him when they were together. But carry on, friend.

"There was an instant spark between them. Kym gets butterflies whenever she thinks about Jamie and that was something she didn't really expect to feel again so soon. They're very wrapped up in each other. With Jamie, she doesn't feel like a mum or dowdy wife any more, but a free spirit. She loves feeling sexy again."

When Kym's marriage ended, some cited tensions over Jack's ailing career and his wife's breadwinning status as one of the reasons for the split. But as readers of our soap gossip pages will know, Jack has in fact just won himself a part in The Bill. Awful timing!
