Kris, 35, was spotted nipping into a corner shop in Manchester wearing a black hoody, grey jeans and white trainers.
As he paused on the pavement, he cut a glum figure.
Former Coronation Street actress Georgia, 34, has removed her wedding ring and wiped all traces of the musician who she once called her 'best friend' from her Instagram page — including glossy snaps from their wedding.
A source told The Sun: 'Georgia's marriage to Kris seems to be over.
'It's on the rocks.
'She's looking to the future and is surrounded by friends and her family.'
It's been a testing time for Georgia, whose beauty business was recently destroyed in a devastating fire.
Georgia, who was runner-up on the BBC's Strictly Come Dancing in 2015, had previously posted a series of photos from their big day.
She and Kris wed at a log cabin-style venue.
The actress, had been engaged to Kris for two years before they married.

He popped the question on New Year's Eve in 2021.
Georgia, who played Katy Armstrong in ITV's Corrie from 2010 to 2015, shared her excitement in the lead up to their nuptials, writing online under a picture of her hen do.
She said: 'I am about to marry my best friend.
'The person who makes me a better person.
'Here's to the last month of being a Foote.'
Georgia dated her Strictly Come Dancing partner Giovanni Pernice after they met during her stint on the show in 2015.
The duo finished as runners-up.
But they called it quits as a couple the following year and announced their split in a joint statement.
At the time, Georgia posted on X: 'It is with great sadness we have decided to split up. There is nobody else involved.
'It was not an easy decision to make, but sometimes you realise that it is better to be friends and this is one of those times.
'We both have very busy work schedules for the rest of the year and so we are both going to focus on our upcoming work projects — and we wish each other well for the future.'
Georgia left Corrie to pursue other opportunities. Since then, she's taken roles in shows including Sky comedy Trollied and US sci-fi drama The Outpost.
A representative for Georgia did not respond to our approach for comment.

Wild family history of Justin Trudeau that has fans convinced his cosy Katy Perry date could be start of something
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) NOT since former MP Lembit Opik dated a Cheeky Girl have we seen the worlds of pop music and politics combine to hit the headlines. But they did just that this week, when singer Katy Perry and former Canadian PM Justin Trudeau were spotted on a romantic dinner date. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 7 Katy Perry and Justin Trudeau have been spotted on a romantic dinner date 7 Katy has seen her star power wane dramatically over the past few months 7 Former Canadian PM Justin resigned in January after pressure from within his party The unlikely pair were pictured enjoying a low-key meal at Le Violon restaurant in Montreal on Monday, as Katy enjoyed a brief break from the Canadian leg of her world tour. Eyewitnesses reported they 'sipped cocktails and shared several dishes . . . including one with lobster' before heading to the kitchen to thank the chef. So was it a casual meeting of two unlikely friends? Or the beginning of something much more amorous between a pair, who have both come out of high-profile relationships? read more on katy perry CALIFORNIA HURL Katy Perry desperately clings on as prop malfunctions mid-air during gig And with Justin being the son of two very free-loving parents, is he following in their frisky footsteps? Cynics added a third option: this was a publicity stunt to repair both parties' damaged reputations. But according to one well-placed source, Justin, 53, has been gunning for a date with 40-year-old Katy, The source, who used to work with the former PM, told The Sun: 'Justin always enjoys nice company, and Katy is the kind of woman that really caught his attention.' Katy announced her split from fiancé Orlando Bloom, 48, with whom she shares four-year-old daughter Daisy Dove, earlier this month. Justin, meanwhile, split from his TV host wife of 18 years, Sophie Gregoire, in 2023. Katy Perry desperately clings on as prop malfunctions mid-air during gig leaving audience terrified The source continued: 'He has been single for a while and has enjoyed getting to know Katy. 'He likes her personality. They click very well so far. "They are going to see each other again soon.' The source added that Katy is 'a breath of fresh air' for the former PM, who resigned in January after pressure from within his party. But Justin and Katy have a surprising amount in common. He is the dynastic politician whose late father, Pierre Trudeau, was the Canadian PM at the time of his birth. She is the Californian pop princess who started singing gospel music before shifting to pop. Both reached the highest rungs of their career ladders but have recently suffered falls from grace. 'PUBLICITY-SEEKING SPECTACLE' Katy has seen her star power wane dramatically. Last year, her new album 143 was named the lowest-scoring record ever on the review aggregation site Metacritic, with critics calling it 'boring' and 'pop trash'. Then, in April, she was one sixth of the heavily criticised all-female, 11-minute Blue Origin space flight. Katy said: 'We're putting the 'ass' in astronaut.' And an ass is exactly how she ended up looking, after the mission was mocked as 'tone-deaf' and 'self-indulgent'. She didn't do herself any favours by unveiling her tour's setlist while suspended in zero gravity. Her detractors were vocal and, according to insiders, it had a knock-on effect on her nine-year relationship with Orlando. The actor was reportedly mortified by the publicity-seeking spectacle and it contributed to their demise. The pair later announced in a statement: 'Orlando and Katy have been shifting their relationship over the past many months to focus on co-parenting'. 7 Katy announced her split from fiancé Orlando Bloom earlier this month 7 Justin split from his wife of 18 years, Sophie Gregoire, in 2023 Since then, Orlando has been enjoying being single, attending Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez's lavish Venice wedding while Katy was on tour in Australia, where he reportedly flirted with female guests. He has also been pictured partying at one of the Oasis gigs in Manchester, and watching the men's singles final at Wimbledon. Until now, Katy had been focusing on her family and touring. Stepping out with Justin this week sent a message to her ex and the world that she is ready to move on. Justin has not been romantically linked to anyone since he split from presenter Sophie. The pair had known each other from childhood but started dating in 2003 and married in 2005. They share three children — Xavier, 17, Ella-Grace, 16, and 11-year-old Hadrien. Justin shocked followers when he announced via Instagram: 'Sophie and I would like to share the fact that after many meaningful and difficult conversations, we have made the decision to separate. My brain was in love but not my body Barbra Streisand on Pierre Trudeau 'As always, we remain a close family with deep love and respect for each other and for everything we built and will continue to build.' After having followed his father into politics, it seems right that Justin now also honours his father's reputation as a ladies' man. When Pierre Trudeau became Prime Minister in 1968, he was labelled a 'swinging young bachelor'. He dated Barbra Streisand the following year, though the singer later admitted: 'My brain was in love but not my body'. In 1971, Pierre married Justin's mother, Margaret, who was 29 years his junior. They had three sons together — Justin, and two younger brothers — but divorced in 1984. Yet Pierre wasn't the only one known for his friskiness. As their marriage crumbled, Margaret gained a reputation to rival her husband's. In her 1982 book Consequences, she revealed she had had affairs with actors Jack Nicholson and Ryan O'Neal, and singer Lou Rawls. She also famously partied with the Rolling Stones, prompting speculation she had slept with Mick Jagger and Ronnie Wood on tour. After their divorce, Pierre dated Superman actress Margot Kidder, before having another child with lawyer Deborah Coyne. 7 Justin's father Pierre dated Barbra Streisand 7 Justin's mother Margaret hung out with Mick Jagger and Ronnie Wood Rumours later linked him to actress Kim Cattrall and Bianca Jagger, though neither of those were confirmed before his death in 2000. Combining Margaret and Pierre's sexual exploits, it is no surprise that their dashing son's love life has been rather bland in comparison, despite the unfounded gay rumours that have stalked his career. Maybe the apple doesn't fall far from the tree after all, and hooking up with a pop star is Justin's next step in following in the Trudeau family tradition.

Coronation Street confirms dark scenes as concern grows for Todd
Things got intense for Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce) in tonight's Coronation Street, after an enormous fight with Theo Silverton's (James Cartwright) family. Amid his journey to help Theo come to terms with his sexuality, Todd has crossed paths with Noah – the man who subjected Theo to conversion therapy. It is safe to say that Noah and Todd's beliefs don't align, and recent scenes saw Todd lash out at him. In tonight's episode, Todd had to face Noah in a restorative justice session, in order to avoid any further repercussions for his actions. Despite not getting much out of the session itself, Todd made a shocking discovery when he returned to the community centre to collect his phone. He overheard Noah calling his new girlfriend – Theo's ex-wife Danielle (Natalie Anderson)! Meanwhile, Theo had planned a lunch with Millie and Miles, and had invited Danielle to join them at the Bistro. Unfortunately, things took a dramatic turn when Todd came barrelling in to reveal Danielle and Noah's relationship to Theo. Theo was understandably hurt, but the situation got even more out of hand when Miles launched at Todd for ruining their family dinner. While attempting to separate them, Theo ended up punching Miles in the face, leaving everyone stunned. Following his violent outburst, Theo blamed Todd for Miles' injury, and stormed out. Several hours later, he finally returned, having left Todd worrying about him. More Trending However, Theo was unremorseful, and asserted that he was going to bed, and that Todd should sleep downstairs. A confused Todd pointed out that Theo was a guest in his house, but Theo doubled down and threatened that Todd would never see him again if he didn't sleep on the sofa.

Coronation Street's Debbie dealt with family betrayal amid dementia battle
Debbie Webster (Sue Devaney) took drastic action after she discovered her own brother Kevin (Michael Le Vell) had betrayed her during the latest episode of the ITV soap Coronation Street's Debbie Webster (Sue Devaney) was left on the verge of tears as she was discovered a family member's betrayal during Wednesday's episode. As viewers of the ITV soap will know, earlier in the week, Abi Webster ( Sally Carman) slept with her brother-in-law Carl (Jonathan Howard) after weeks of holding back her feelings. It all came about after she had discovered that her husband Kevin Webster (Michael Le Vell) had been lying to her about his cancer, having been given the all-clear months ago. She tried to pack her bags after her encounter with Carl, but was persuaded to stay by her stepson Jack (Kyran Bowes) and when the teenager spotted his Aunty Debbie on the Street, she coaxed the situation out of him. The hotel owner, who was diagnosed with vascular dementia earlier this year, stormed round to number 13 to ask what she thought she was doing when her husband is so sick. She told Abi: "If anybody treated me the way you're treating my brother, it's disgusting! Shame on you. In sickness and in health, to death us do part. Does that ring any bells?" In the heat of the moment, Abi revealed the truth as she told a shocked Debbie: "Your precious, do-no-wrong brother has been lying to us all for weeks." Furious, Debbie marched over to the garage where Kevin was at work and yelled: "You're cancer- free!" Through tears, she added: "Of all the despicable things to do, to lie about something like that, when you know what I'm going through. What I've got. Shut your gob!" Kevin tried to wriggle out of the situation, but Debbie was having none of it, as she coldly told him: "I'm sure you can justify giving me sleepless night after sleepless night. I don't want to know, because, that's the most liberating thing about having a terminal illness. You get to choose what you care about." At that point, Debbie turned to her younger brother Carl, and quickly sussed out that he was also in on the lie. Before leaving the scene, the hotel manager looked Kevin in the eye and told him: "I hope you hold onto your wife, because you've just lost your sister." Later on, Abi apologised to Kevin for telling Debbie the truth, but he took full responsibility for the situation. He added: "Can't blame our Debbie for disowning me, I bet you wish you'd left me now," although Abi did not give him a response. Despite the major revelation, Debbie and Kevin are still unaware of Abi's infidelity. Earlier this week, Carl declared that their initial encounter was 'worth the wait' and they kissed Abi claimed that things with Kevin were over. But later, in the Rovers, Carl did not seem so keen on the idea of Abi calling off her entire marriage as she weighed up what they had begun. As viewers will know, last week, Carl organised the theft of an expensive car and is aware that his brother could have him arrested at any moment. "Don't I deserve to be happy?" she asked him and he told her to go home to be with Kevin. In the days before Kevin's brother arrived on the cobbles, the mechanic was famously married to Sally Metcalfe ( Sally Dynevor) and they had daughters Rosie ( Helen Flanagan) and Sophie ( Brooke Vincent) together. They initially split up when Kevin had an an affair with Natalie Barnes ( Denise Welch) but they remarried in 2002. Their marriage survived numerous infidelities on both sides, but ultimately crumbled when Kevin fathered Jack with Molly Dobbs (Vicky Binns) before she died in the 2010 tram crash as part of the programme's 50th anniversary. Carl is the son of Kevin's dad Bill Webster (Peter Armitage) and his second wife Elaine (Judy Gridley) and spent most of his life in Germany with his parents until he arrived on the Manchester backstreet earlier this year. In real life, Jonathan spent 10 years in LA and working alongside big-name stars including Brad Pitt and Anthony Hopkins, but the 38-year-old actor ranks landing a part in Corrie among his greatest achievements. He told The Mirror: "Being in Coronation Street is just as big a thrill as being in a Hollywood film or an American TV series. It's all the same, everyone's telling stories, whether it's a big $200m movie or a soap like Corrie. As a Lancashire lad born and raised, the dream was to be in Coronation Street – that was the ceiling, so it feels wonderfully surreal to now be acting with people like Kevin Webster that I watched religiously as a kid. "My friends ask me, 'what you have been up to today?' and I reply 'I took Tracy Barlow for a drink in the Rovers Return!' It's just incredible to say these things."
