Emmerdale’s Matthew Wolfenden breaks silence on new romance and insists he didn’t cheat on Charley Webb
EMMERDALE star Matthew Wolfenden has broken his silence on his new romance as well as claims he cheated on ex-Charley Webb with his girlfriend.
The actor took to Instagram this afternoon with a Story post titled: “Just to set the record straight.”
Over the top of a picture of him walking hand in hand with personal trainer and actress Heather Stanley, who also goes by the name Heather Scott-Martin, Matthew called reports he’d cheated an “out and out lie”.
He then wrote: “Can you leave us alone now?”
Ending on a lighter not, he told fans he was “glad to get that off my chest” followed by a laughter emoji.
Hen then cheekily told them they can watch them on stage together in Elf The Musical.
The co-stars have certainly hit it off and were pictured kissing in the street as they strolled through London’s Christmas lit streets this week.
We revealed the soap star is dating the £40-an-hour personal fitness trainer following his agonising marriage split from soap co-star Charley.
He went on secret late night dates with the brunette gym bunny – who boasts the work motto, ‘Leave the past behind, focus on what you can do now’.
Determined work-out stunner Heather waited in shop doorways for her actor lover to leave the West End theatre.
The duo then resembled “honeymooners” as they walked hand-in-hand through oblivious crowds in central London back to Matthew’s apartment nearby.
The covert pair were spotted several times before the announcement of the end of the showbiz couple’s marriage, The Sun was told.
Matthew’s new woman is Watford-based Heather, who tells clients to ‘strive for progress, not perfection’.
The trained professional dancer was charging £280 for eight one-to-one personal training sessions and discount classes online.
A source said: “Heather was wary about getting too involved with Matthew too soon, but is head over heels.
“She was trying not to be seen with him, standing away from the stage door when he emerged from show rehearsals and shows. But now the cat is out of the bag.
“Heather is a clean cut, popular woman who was desperate not to be painted as Matthew’s ‘other woman’. She’s not happy about being thrust into the conversation of his celebrity marriage breakdown.”
