Hannah Waddingham's love life
Hannah was previously in a relationship with Italian businessman Gianluca Cugnetto for a decade. They welcomed daughter Kitty together in 2014 and split two years later.
The star previously told Women’s Health UK she was ready to start dating again after spending time focusing on raising her daughter.

Asked if it was a "very good-looking parapet," Hannah laughed and replied: "It is."And it’s really lovely too, obviously, my relationship. But the best thing about it is, firstly, being happy and strong in myself."
Back in 2024, Hannah appeared on the Table For Two podcast and admitted her love life at the time was “a bit dry” and said she was "so busy" and "a bit picky".

"And just be a lovely positive, charismatic soul. I’m 50 and I’m like, ‘Dude, if you are not going to step up, step off and be gone. Sod off until someone fabulous comes along’.
"I’d rather hang with my girlfriends and gay friends and be respected."
