Kym Marsh SPLITS with 19-years-younger toyboy she called her ‘soulmate’ six months after going public

KYM Marsh has split from her boyfriend Samuel Thomas, just six months after finding love.

The 48-year-old and Sam, 29, quietly split before Christmas following the end of their time touring together – despite branding each other soulmates in a series of gushing posts.

An insider said: “Kym and Sam fell head over heels when they first met and couldn’t wait to tell the world.

“But once Kym’s role in 101 Dalmatians ended it became harder to spend time together and some of the magic they had at the beginning just disappeared.

“It’s such a shame, especially before Christmas but Kym surrounded herself with family.”

Despite being very public about their new romance, neither Kym or Sam posted about each other on Valentine’s Day last week.

Kym and Sam also spent both Christmas and New Year apart – both sharing with fans the different things they got up to.

The source added: “There is no hard feelings, it was all very cordial.”
Kym met and fell for Sam not long after the breakdown of her third marriage to Army Major Scott Ratcliff.

She told fans back in August: “Met the most amazing man ever!

“Sometimes the most unexpected things happen at the most unexpected times. @samuelthomasuk I love you #beautiful #soulmate.”

She was quickly forced forced to defend their romance after being targeted by cruel trolls.

After telling one doubter to “do one”, Kym later added in another response: “It’s time to grow up and get on with your own life instead of giving hate to someone else’s life.”

To another hater, she added: “I wonder what’s missing from your life that you need to comment on others. Sad really.”

Kym – whose son David was born the same year as Samuel – revealed she had split from her third husband, Army Major Scott Ratcliff, 35, in May 2023.

Kym called time on her relationship with Scott because of the strain of their jobs – just 18 months after a stellar run on Strictly Come Dancing.

The actress has son David, and is also mum to Emilie, 27, and 13-year-old Polly.

She also became a grandmother in May 2019 when Emilie gave birth to a baby boy.
