Max George and girlfriend Maisie Smith rule out working together again after ... trends now
Max George and his girlfriend Maisie Smith have already ruled out working together again after 'ropey' audition for major stage show.
The Wanted singer, 35, and former EastEnders star, 22, who met on Strictly Come Dancing in 2020, will play a married couple in Jeff Wayne's musical version of The War Of The Worlds, which will tour in 2025.
The duo auditioned together as a couple, with Max joking during a Good Morning Britain interview: 'First time we've ever done that... probably the last! It was a bit ropey in parts, but in the end, we got there.

The musical will be coming to 17 major UK arenas next March, and not-so coincidentally celebrating 130 years since the release of the original HG Wells novel.

Jeff then said: 'Being a couple in real life will add to their on-stage charisma and chemistry. Maisie has such a melodic but powerful voice, which compliments Max's dramatic and soulful vocals wonderfully.'
Last month, Max signed to a new management company promising to make him a 'global star' just two weeks before mysteriously pulling out of touring theatre show The Syndicate.
The singer is still pictured on some theatre websites and multiple ticket platforms after being cast as one of The Syndicate's star names alongside Coronation Street actress Brooke Vincent and Emmerdale 's Samantha Giles.
But just weeks before the show's opening – and start of a five-month tour – Max announced he's unable to perform due to 'personal reasons' and said he would be there to cheer on his former co-stars 'once I'm feeling better.'
However, less than 24 hours after releasing the statement to his Instagram followers,
