EastEnders star Shane Richie was spotted kissing a mystery woman at the TV Choice Awards, which took place in London earlier this month.

The actor was seen looking very cosy with a woman who was not his wife of seven years at London’s Park Lane Hilton where he and the rest of the cast were celebrating their Best Soap title.

A source told The Sun on Sunday, which allegedly obtained images of the encounter, that the pair shared a kiss: “She was running her finger down his chest and into the open collar of his shirt, then ran her fingers through his hair and stroked his head.

“They were giggling and chatting for a full 20 minutes before they headed back in. But Shane stopped the woman and put his arm around her waist. She wrapped an arm around him too, and he leaned in to kiss her passionately on the lips twice before they finally broke away from each other.”

The woman was said to have returned to the hotel while Shane went back to his family home which he shares with his wife, Christie Goddard, and their three children.
