Lisa Armstrong has reportedly been given permission to update her home, as she uses some of her settlement from her divorce Ant McPartlin.
The make up artist, 45, and ex Ant, 46, married back in 2006 but decided to call it quits in January 2018. The pair finalised their divorce two years later, and according to The Sun, Ant handed over £31million to Lisa in the settlement.
Ant has since moved on and re-married as he tied the knot with Anne-Marie Corbett. Meanwhile Lisa has been dating boyfriend James Green.
Earlier this year, it was reported that the make up artist had submitted papers to the council in a planning application for the upgrade of her home – including a pool, gym, outhouse and gazebo in her West London home.
This week, her planning permission has reportedly been granted, meaning work can go ahead on renovations, according to The Mirror.

A source told the publication: “It’s been a topsy-turvy few years to say the least but Lisa has turned a corner and everything is looking rosy at the moment.
“She is very much focused on the future and is in a really good place after what was a difficult period.”
Lisa previously shared snaps of her home in an Instagram post after taking down her Christmas decorations, which was captioned: “And relax!!! #itslikeitneverhappened All back to normal… Happy 2022!!! #lookssobare x,” with three pink heart emojis.
One photo shows a gorgeous carpeted living room with a green sofa and plush coffee table, a second sees an incredible kitchen island with a stove and sink.

In another picture, Lisa teases her circular dining room table with a massive mirror behind it, while a final snap is of a simple plant with light up letters spelling her name around it.
Last month, Lisa opened up on her new relationship with boyfriend James Green, saying it was filled with “trust and loyalty”.
The star appeared on Steph’s Packed Lunch and shared her thoughts on her new partner, who she’s been with since mid 2020.
Nodding along that love, trust and laughter were vital, Lisa shared: “I totally agree, I think you need to have your own independence within the relationship so you are able to go off and do your own thing.

“You can be with your mates or go football with the boys, whatever it is [that] each other are doing.”
The beauty aficionado also enthused about having your own interests and time apart during a relationship, as long as the individuals are able to share those parts of their lives with each other to build an emotional and close connection.
“Come back and enjoy listening to each other’s stories,” the star said. “Like ‘How was your day?’ [or] ‘How was your work?'”

“Absolutely [your partner’s got to let you fly],” Lisa went on. “Let the other person fly and be their own independent person.
“But then you come together and realise that you’re better as a couple and there’s trust, loyalty and laughter.”
“I’ve had some lovely holidays,” the star added with a laugh.
