It's a new year and First Dates is back with more hopeful people looking for love. Fans of the show are used to seeing the First Dates team hard at work, however their downtime is spent at their glorious homes. From Fred Sirieix's cool pad to Cici Coleman's chic apartment, take a look…

Fred Sirieix's home

Fred has lived in Peckham in London since he moved to the UK over 20 years ago after previously telling The Resident he bought there "because it was cheap".

When launching his 'Wednesday Wine Club' during lockdown, Fred revealed an area of his home with an abstract piece of art on the wall. The interesting photograph has been displayed in a dark wooden frame and makes a striking focal point.

Fred has even shown off his bed – whilst he was in it! In this photograph, he revealed a button-back grey headboard, and grey and lilac floral bed covers. He has a white bedside table next to the bed, and pink patterned cushions.

It appears as though Fred has his own walk-in wardrobe. Back in February, he shared a post of himself – topless – in the room. It features herringbone flooring and a large wardrobe with a black frame and quilted leather front.

Best known as the smiley waitress from the UK's most romantic restaurant, Cici Coleman is in fact also an actress and a qualified personal trainer. Her modern apartment in London is used as her place for adrenaline-fuelled fitness as well as relaxation.

The star showed off her living area whilst filming an Instagram video, revealing a stylish grey sofa, patio doors leading onto a balcony and a minimalist coffee table.

In 2021, Cici unveiled a new sofa in her gorgeous home and the star has gone for a statement yellow piece of furniture. The sofa is next to a grey chair and a trendy rose gold lamp.

When hosting a live workout video, the waitress gave fans a look at her open plan living space which includes a modern kitchen area and dark wooden floors throughout. The star has livened up the place with plants and a canvas on the wall.

Grant Urquhart's home

Grant is originally from York but he relocated to London in order to study at the Italia Conti Academy of Theatre Arts. When he's not starring in First Dates, he relaxes at his home in the city.

At Christmas time, Grant unveiled his quirky Christmas tree covered in fun baubles and in turn, also showed off a corner of his retro living room. The star has a brickwork wall, wooden flooring and a large patterned rug, giving the space an eclectic feel.

In another image posted to his Instagram feed, Grant gave a glimpse of his kitchen area. He has pine kitchen cupboards, light wooden flooring and there is a statement bar cart laden with drinks in the corner – make ours a martini!

Merlin Griffiths' home

Friendly face behind the bar Merlin actually owns his own bar in London – and he lives with his partner Lucile and their child.

Although the star keeps a lot of his home life private, while showing off a new coffee machine, Merlin gave eager fans a look inside his kitchen. The light and airy space has small white tiles and marble work surfaces – and we were not surprised to see the star with a cocktail in his hand!

In another rare post, Merlin let followers see inside his wild garden, which includes animal ornaments and eclectic flowerbeds. The star had used a tree trunk as a miniature table to set up a cocktail sipping area on the grass – and we love the creativity.

Laura Tott's home

As well as appearing in the hit Channel 4 show, Laura works on the frontline as a paramedic. She shares her home in Stoke-on-Trent with her two delightful pups, Tommi and Ella.

During lockdown, Laura posted a picture of her sitting at her dining room table, where fans could see her grey woven placemat, wooden door and the collage photo frame behind her.

Laura's bedroom is an oasis of calm with grey flecked walls, a grey floral bedspread and perfectly curated furnishings. Upon her bed is a velour cushion and a pale pink luxury throw, and above the headboard is a pretty flower painting – which ties in nicely with the star's faux flowers by the side of the bed.
