He finished off by saying ‘I love you’ while sharing a beautiful snap of Kym as they enjoyed a romantic day out.

Their outing comes after Kym was forced to defend herself for revealing she is dating Samuel who is the same age as her son
He penned: ‘Life’s pretty great right now. Two wonderful days in London staying at @strandpalace in between venues last week, and what a lovely time we had.
‘Great food, new tattoos, Camden market, @kissmekateuk @barbicancentre and all the laughter and love. I Love you @marsh_kym❤️.’
His pals were quick to comment under the post saying how happy and in love he looked.
Kym is currently playing Cruella de Vil in the UK & Ireland tour of 101 Dalmatians The Musical, alongside her boyfriend Samuel, who stars as Tom Dearly.
Their outing comes after Kym was forced to defend herself for revealing she is dating Samuel who is the same age as her son.
At 29, Samuel – who she refers to as ‘the most amazing man ever’ – is the same age as her eldest child, David Cunliffe.
Kym’s friends are reportedly worried that her new romance with a younger man could all end in heartache if it ‘fizzles out’.
The soap star has the support of her pals who are apparently ‘happy’ she has found someone, but they are said to have concerns that she could end up hurt.
The actress is a parent to son David, 29, and daughter Emilie, 27, from a former relationship with builder David Cunliffe.
