Ryan Thomas bought it without her seeing it
The actor can get some well-deserved rest at his swanky Manchester home, which he purchased without Lucy even seeing it.
Fitness enthusiast Lucy, 31, called her fiancé a brave man after he purchased the house on their behalf.
At the time she wrote: “New house, new project, new memories to be made
@ryanthomas84 bought our new Manchester home without me viewing it
he is a very brave man hahahah!!!
“I’ll be posting the full renovation process on @lucymeckinteriors
.”
The couple explored the new pad today along with Ryan’s daughter Scarlett.
And while it needs a lot of TLC, Lucy was thrilled with the project in front of them.
The spacious home has a huge basement with lots of potential, while the rooms are effectively blank canvases for their creative juices to flow.
Large bedrooms come complete with built-in wardrobes and chandeliers, while both the bathroom and kitchen are light and airy.
The couple already have a few little home touches including a framed “new home, new adventures’ message and a ‘home sweet home’ front door mat.
Lucy shared some of her plans, writing: “We are planning to start by ripping out all the built in wardrobes…
“New carpets and painting, But living in it like that before we decide on any big changes like extensions, loft conversions, new kitchen, knocking through walls etc.
“I think it’s helpful to live in the house to get a feel for it & then make a plan of action!
“I didn’t with mine and not having a utility room is my biggest regret.”
The buy is a bold move as the pair spent £100,000 doing up their current house.
The Essex “mini mansion” boasts a marble bathroom, modern extended kitchen and a room for her designer shoe collection.
Celebrity MasterChef fans were left furious after Ryan was kicked off the show before the semi-finals.
Ryan sparked a ‘fix’ row when he lost out to Kitty and Lisa Snowdon instead.
Celebrity Masterchef fans flocked to Twitter to complain after Corrie star Ryan was sent packing.
One Tweeted: “Ryan’s turn to be robbed tonight.”
A second said: “Oh as if!! Ryan was robbed! He was the best in all the other challenges! What a stitch up!!”
Ryan lost out to TV star Kitty with her broccoli and stilton soup, and Lisa Snowdon who wowed with her fish dish.
