Coronation Street star splits from her long-term boyfriend
CORONATION Street actress Ellie Leach has split from her model and dancer boyfriend Reagan Pettman after five years.
It comes after I revealed that the Faye Windass actress was leaving the soap after 12 years on the cobbles.
A source said: “Ellie has the world at her feet after stepping away from Corrie and she has taken time to reflect on which direction her life is going in.
“Ellie and Reagan decided to call things a day and she is making the most of her single status.”
Earlier this week Ellie had a boozy leaving bash with her Corrie pals – including her on-screen fiancé Colson Smith – in Manchester after we revealed that she had been written out of the soap.
Sharing a tribute to Colson on Instagram, she penned: “To my best friend, where to even begin.
“Starting this job at nine years old I didn’t know what to expect, never in my wildest dreams did I think I would meet someone who would become one of the most special people in my life.”
She added: “Thank you for everything Colson Smith, everything we’ve been through, everything we’ve done together, I wouldn’t be who I am today if it wasn’t for you. I love you and always will.”
Ellie’s final scene on Corrie aired on Thursday which saw Faye drive off with her ex Jackson and their daughter Miley to start a new life in Slough.
Yet fans were left disappointed after her character Faye was just driven off mid-way through the episode instead of an emotional final scene.
However – despite still following Reagan on Instagram – Ellie has since deleted all of their loved-up photos including a sunset snap of the couple which she captioned: “Love you forever.”
But Ellie is certainly not feeling blue and has been sharing posts of her girls trip to Copenhagen.
I am sure she will have plenty of men sliding into her DMs.
