Lisa Armstrong FINALLY ditches her wedding ring

She split from husband Ant McPartlin at the beginning of the year, with his new romance with his former PA coming to light recently.

And Lisa Armstrong, 41, was spotted taking a stroll in the Los Angeles sunshine on Monday with her former Deuce bandmate, Craig Young, after a hike in the Hollywood Hills, as she tried to take her mind off things.

The makeup artist had ditched her wedding ring for the outing, as she smoked a cigarette and chatted with Craig, who is married to Michael Di Girolamo.

The makeup artist dressed for the hike in loose-fitting black shorts and a grey and black striped tee.

She added bright pink sneakers, but noticeably missing from her ensemble was her wedding ring, which up until now she has still been wearing on her left hand. 

Lisa pulled her newly blonde tresses off her face into a bun, and added a pair of aviator sunglasses.

In the wake of her split from presenter Ant, their friends are said to have been 'torn down the middle' as they are forced to pick sides in the divorce battle, reports The Sun.

Sources close to the former couple told the website there is a large group of celebrity friends including Holly Willoughby, Philip Schofield and Simon Cowell who are playing 'Switzerland' and staying neutral during the split.
