Denise Van Outen has confirmed her separation from boyfriend Jimmy Barba, 55, marking the end of their 18 month-long relationship. The television personality, 49, who publicly introduced her romance with the property developer last year, shared the news with The Sun, stating: "We have decided to part ways, but we remain great friends, and our families and children are still in touch." The couple, initially brought together by All Saints singer Shaznay Lewis, seemed inseparable during the initial stages of their relationship, attending red carpet events, enjoying holidays, and sharing glimpses of their life on social media.
However, in recent weeks, there has been a noticeable absence of joint posts, and Denise has been actively involved in her work, including DJing and presenting on Steph's Packed Lunch. A source previously told OK! that Denise was "smitten" with Jimmy, confirming: "Denise is head over heels for Jimmy – he feels like a breath of fresh air and is a real man after all of Eddie's drama.
"He makes her laugh, they're having so much fun together after meeting online. It's not been long, but she's smitten which is why she went on red carpet official with him." Denise, a mother to Betsy from her previous marriage to Lee Mead, faced heartbreak last year when she discovered her then-boyfriend, Eddie Boxshall, had been exchanging explicit messages with other women.
