A Coronation Street actress is said to be preparing to divorce her X Factor star husband. Georgia May Foote, who found fame playing Katy Armstrong on the long running ITV soap between 2010 and 2015 had never been one to shy away from sharing an insight into her life.
Now, the 34-year-old is said to be looking towards her future as a single woman following the alleged breakdown of her marriage. Bury-born Georgia and Kris Evans, who found fame on The X Factor, before appearing on Britain's Got Talent are now said to be living separate lives, just two years after they tied the knot.

They married in 2023 following a two-year-long engagement, but Georgia, who also appeared on Strictly Come Dancing, has now wiped the singer and music producer from her social media page, including their wedding snaps. However, the images are still available on Kris' Instagram account.

Elsewhere, he still has their engagement announcement, which he shared on December 31, 2021, on his page. But a source has claimed the marriage is over and they're heading towards a divorce.
Speaking to The Sun, a source said: "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." Meanwhile, Georgia's wedding ring has been noticeably absent in social media posts after she enjoyed a trip to a spa with a friend.
Captioning her post, Georgia said: "A day of pure gorgeousness with my bestest friend in the whole world." At the time of her log cabin wedding, Georgia said on social media: "I am about to marry my best friend. The person who makes me a better person. Didn't think I would find someone who would love me for me but I did it.
"Thanks to all my people who showed up for me this weekend. I had a ball, and I'm forever grateful to you all for loving me for me too. Here is to the last month of being a Foote."

The couple became engaged while holidaying in Gran Canaria, with the actress showcasing her huge ring to her social media followers. She wrote: "30/12/2021. Mrs Evans to be. Of course I am still crying.
"@krisevansmusic I love you beyond words and I am honoured you have chosen me," and geo-tagged her location as "Clound Nine." Kris, isn't the first famous person that Georgia has dated.
She previously dated her Strictly partner, Giovanni Pernice, after they met on the BBC show in 2015 where they finished as runners-up. However, they split a year later and issued a joint statement on social media.

The former couple said": "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."
The Mirror has approached both Georgia and Kris' spokespeople for comment.

Purvis, 33, took to the site of the funeral home which handled arrangements for John Mark Harris, a 37-year-old chef who authorities said Purvis provided deadly drugs to. 'John mark, I hate that I found out what happened today and missed your funeral,' Purvis wrote on the Henderson & Sons Funeral Home site March 3. Purvis posted the message more than three months before she was arrested Monday in Floyd County, Georgia in connection with with involuntary manslaughter and distribution of a controlled substance, among other felony counts, TMZ reported Monday. 'I wish I could've found out sooner and attended your celebration of life,' the reality star said. Purvis thanked her late confidante 'for being such a great friend to me and always making me feel beautiful and cared for.' Purvis said that her late friend had been a dear one, as they grew close over their passion for cooking. 'We bonded over being chefs, our love of cooking and our struggle,' she said. She praised Harris for his candor and intelligence in their interactions over the years. 'I could tell you anything and you always knew what to say or give me your honest opinion and advice,' Purvis said. The MTV alum added 'You've came to my rescue on many occasions and saved me over the years. 'I am so very thankful for the times we had together.' Purvis - who's also charged with use of a communication device to commit a felony involving controlled substances - said that she was dealing with serious emotional trauma over the loss of her friend. 'My brain just can't process this happened. I don't want it to be true,' she said. Purvis listed off a number of things she associated with him that she would miss in the wake of her friend's passing. 'I'll miss waking up to your silly messages and pictures you'd send me,' she said. 'I'll miss marshal and lunchbox. I'll miss your amazing cooking. I'll miss snuggling on the couch watching tv with you. 'I'll miss sitting outside, smoking camel crush cigs w/ you how we talked about talked about life, gossiping and you telling me what movies/shows I need to watch next.' Purvis characterized her late friend as 'a truly good hearted, one of a kind man' who she would 'never forget.' Purvis, who has more than 17,500 followers on Instagram, wrapped up in saying: 'Rest in peace and my condolences to your family and friends. 'I pray they are able to find some kind of comfort during this tragic time. I love you forever, John Mark. Love, Whitney.'

ITV's 'most expensive flop in years' fronted by David Tennant facing the axe after getting fewer viewers than niche nature documentary

The show described as ITV's 'most expensive flop in years' is facing the axe after drawing in fewer viewers than a BBC documentary about pangolins. Hosted by David Tennant, The Genius Game is reported to have cost £2.5 million to make, but despite the huge investment, it had average viewership numbers of 661,000 after a promising start. This matched the viewership figures of BBC2's Pangolins: The World's Most Wanted Animal, which examines the plight of the endangered animals also known as scaly anteaters. An insider told The Sun: 'Publicly ITV maintains that no firm decision has been taken, but most execs and commissioners view it as a disaster. 'Not only did it occupy a primetime 9pm slot, it had a big-name host and was seen as a potential rival for BBC 's The Traitors. 'But of the five main channels on June 11, it was beaten by two and equalled by BBC2, thanks to those pangolins.' The Genius Game is intellect-based and sees contestants put their IQ to the test in never-before-seen games and manipulate each other for a cash prize, but many found it confusing and difficult to understand. While the show had a promising 1.5 million viewers when it first aired in April, by the second episode this number had plummeted to 846,000 viewers. To put this into context compared to other primetime TV shows, BBC1's Race Across The World attracted 4.2 million viewers at the same time. ITV has said: 'No decision has yet been made.' News of the show's uncertain future comes after its broadcast schedule was changed amid plummeting viewer numbers. When it first premiered, Genius Game was set to air on Wednesday and Thursday. But now, there was a change in the schedule and it was subsequently only broadcast on Wednesday evenings. Jeremy Clarkson's Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? celebrity specials were then moved into its Thursday slot for two weeks in May. The shake-up meant the show was spread out over seven weeks instead of four. It comes after many viewers during the first episode took issue with the new program and commented on how 'complicated' it seemed, with many not understanding the premise It comes after many viewers during the first episode took issue with the program and commented on how 'complicated' it seemed, with many not understanding the premise. Some took to social media to share their concerns and posted on X: 'Just starting this. Seems very complicated. I'll watch it out but not looking good tbh #GeniusGame.' One watcher turned off the show in just ten minutes and penned: 'Bye bye.' Others said: 'Sorry #GeniusGame it's a no from me, way too complicated for that time of night, I need mindless entertainment after a busy day, ITV should've just extended #CBBUK instead.' 'I'm struggling to understand. I'm clearly no genius, the rules on rules on rules are something else #GeniusGame.' The MailOnline has reached out to ITV for comment.
