'I DID cheat on Andy,' admits Michelle Heaton as she introduces her new boyfriend

Updated 14:48pm on 22 Jul 2008



Former Liberty X singer Michelle Heaton has wasted no time moving on from her ill-fated marriage to Andy Scott Lee.

Just after a month the pair split, the 27-year-old has revealed she's now dating Dublin-based Hugh Hanley and has already posted cosy couple shots on her Facebook page.

Michelle has also admitted to being unfaithful during her relationship with Scott Lee, a former member of boyband 3SL.

New romance: A month after her marriage to Andy Scott Lee ended, Michelle Heaton is dating Hugh Hanley

She says: 'I cheated on Andy on holiday in Marbella last year. It was a snog in a nightclub but Andy's saying that I tried to deny it but that's not true.

'It was on the last night of the holiday and the day I came home I told him. I felt sick with guilt and worry. I won't blame the alcohol but it was stupid and drunken.'

But she denies claims made by Scott Lee in a Sunday paper that she had an affair with actor Matt Di Angelo.

Moving on: Michelle posted pictures of the affectionate pair on her Facebook page

She told OK! magazine: 'I didn't sleep with Matt. The only thing I did wrong was that I found him really attractive and cute - which woman wouldn't - and as a married woman I shouldn't be thinking this.

'But nothing happened because Matt was completely mad about Flavia.'

Michelle also denied reports of romantic liaisons with former Big Brother contestants Ziggy Lichman and Liam McGough.

Cheat: Michelle admits she was unfaithful during her marriage Andy

Of her new boyfriend, she says: 'I started dating him shortly after Andy sold his story. I'd been asked out before Andy sold his story but with that action I felt free and I felt single.'

Heaton and Scott-Lee married in 2006 in a lavish winter Wonderland themed wedding, which was covered by a celebrity weekly magazine.

Guests included Andy's sister, Steps star Lisa Scott-Lee, glamour model Jordan, former Pop Idol winner Michelle McManus, Girls Aloud star Sarah Harding and Liz McClarnon of Atomic Kitten.

After they wed, Scott-Lee revealed they had signed a prenuptial agreement.

He said at the time: 'Obviously Michelle is more well off than I am and it's also to protect the property I have with my brother. Whatever we buy together will be split according to the contributions we make. It’s a wise move.'

He added: 'Hopefully it will be forever, but you never know.'
