Barbara Windsor's widower Scott Mitchell and his girlfriend Tanya Franks made a rare appearance together as he supported her at her theatre show party on Thursday.
The couple, who went public with their romance nine months ago, cosied up for pictures at the party as they celebrated Tanya's role in The Power of a Sail.
They haven't been seen together for months since they revealed their romance was borne out of Scott's fundraising efforts in memory of late wife EastEnders star Barbara who died in 2020 aged 83 following a battle with Alzheimer's.
The pair said on the Good Morning Britain show in July they met during training for Scott's fundraising marathons and were so happy that the friendship had developed into romance.
Scott, 60, later told Kaye Adams on her How To Be 60 podcast he is 'very happy' in his new relationship, with Tanya, 55, who is 'very understanding'.
