Lee Ryan’s colourful love life: From celebrity engagements to explosive love triangles, a secret love child and even a threesome with bandmate Duncan James – as he prepares to welcome sixth baby

BBG News

He recently declared that he will soon be a father for the sixth time, since he and his new spouse, Verity Paris, are expecting their fourth child together.

Meanwhile, the family of five is enjoying a picturesque lifestyle in Spain following their move abroad three years back, but Lee Ryan’s romantic affairs haven’t always followed traditional paths.

The singer’s romantic history includes celeb relationships, alleged affairs, love triangles, and an alleged illegitimate child, making it quite vibrant and interesting, for sure.

During the peak of his Blue fame, he was rumored to be associated with several women, among them being Liz McClarnon from Atomic Kitten and also the American celebrity, Caprice.

It appears that he seemed to be in a relationship with hairdresser Samantha Miller, who later became the mother of his first child. Yet, news about an alleged secret love child and assault charges caused their relationship to become tumultuous, leading eventually to a contentious breakup.

During his time on Celebrity Big Brother, Lee didn’t shy away from the drama once he found himself in a complex love triangle, following multiple passionate kisses.

It appears that after openly discussing threesomes with his bandmate Duncan James, this celebrity now seems to have calmed down and established a long-term commitment.

Liz McClarnon 

In the early 2000s, Lee had been romantically involved with several notable individuals, and he was once in an engagement with the band member Liz McClarnon from Atomic Kitten.

For about two years, they’d been on and off in a romantic relationship, but in 2003, Lee decided to make things official by proposing. They were deeply engrossed in their emotional whirlwind at the time.

Nonetheless, their relationship ended not long afterward due to accusations that Lee was involved with a dancer in a club and Liz expressing discomfort about dating another well-known personality.

Yet Lee insisted he was the one to call things off, saying later: ‘It just wasn’t right any more.’

Sharing insights on her breakup, Liz confided in Closer magazine, “I have no intention of dating another famous person ever again. My previous engagement with Lee felt suffocating due to the constant public scrutiny of our relationship.

‘For me, it leads to paranoia. You read things about each other and wonder who said what.’

Caprice

2004 saw whispers of a romantic relationship between Lee and model Caprice Bourret, as reports circulated that they had been discreetly dating.

According to reports, the Sun uncovered that the two met at a club in London, and it’s said that the model confided in her friends that she and the singer from the band Blue were smitten with one another.

A trusted confidant reportedly shared with a newspaper: “Currently, she’s very joyful. She’s been chatting excitedly among her friends about her dates with Lee, though they’re supposed to keep it under wraps.

She expressed her belief that they’re deeply in love, and she’s extremely thrilled about their budding romance, despite it being quite new.

Additionally, American singer Lee is rumored to have had relationships with ex-models Alicia Douvall and Stephanie Saunders as well.

Samantha Miller

In 2007 Lee met Samantha Miller on MySpace after she posted a number of sexy snaps on his page. 

For several years, it’s said that Samantha was an ardent admirer of Blue. More recently, she confided in his friends that she had a poster of him hanging on her bedroom wall during her teenage years.

At his 25th birthday celebration, everyone was taken aback when it was announced that Samantha was expecting a child, following earlier comments about her being described as ‘very attractive.’

In my role as a lifestyle advisor, I must share that my personal journey as a father wasn’t an easy one. Five months into my partner’s pregnancy, we parted ways, leaving her heartbroken and me with a profound sense of responsibility. This unexpected turn of events was far from a smooth sailing experience.

Afterwards, the pair got back together, however, their union was marked by a stormy engagement period filled with heated disputes; an instance of this took place when Lee tossed cash at Samantha outside a hotel in Mayfair.

In 2007, it was discovered that Ryan had a hidden child from a past relationship, which further strained the bond they shared.

In the year 2008, Lee and his partner Samantha became parents to their son Rayn. But unfortunately, the relationship between them took a sour turn in 2010 when Lee faced charges for physically abusing Samantha, leading to their unfortunate separation.

It is claimed that the singer faced charges for attacking Samantha, following an alleged incident where she struck her during their car ride through the West End of London.

The charge was withdrawn that month at the request of his partner.

A representative from Ryan stated to TopMob that Lee absolutely denies any allegations of common assault. He unequivocally didn’t strike Sammi, and he intends to contest these accusations in a court of law.

In late 2019, Lee looked back on his unsuccessful relationships and difficult periods in his life, sharing his thoughts with the Daily Mail: “I regret giving up the family life I once had with my former fiancée, Sammi, and our son, Rayn who is now ten. We’ve managed to rebuild a strong bond between us.

However, I overlooked our bond, which means it’s more recently that I’ve observed him experiencing cooperative parenting – a dynamic my parents were unfortunately unable to attain throughout their relationship.

Apart from me, I too have a daughter named Bluebell who is 11 years old. These are crucial stages in their lives, and I am exerting all my efforts to create lasting memories with each of them. For now, they are my main focus.

Jessica Keevil 

In 2007, before he started dating Samantha, Lee had a child named Bluebell with Jessica, whom he encountered at a nightclub, and they became parents.

Following several outings, Jessica disclosed that she was expecting, and Lee ended their romance, starting to date Samantha instead.

In the year 2008, Bluebell entered the world, only a few months prior to Rayn. However, it wasn’t until a year after that Lee had a paternity test conducted, which subsequently established him as the father.

In the past, there have been difficulties in Lee’s connection with Jessica’s relatives, and he has previously faced allegations regarding not fulfilling his child support obligations.

In 2011, Bluebell’s grandmother, Jane Stowell, referred to Lee as an “unfit father” in an interview with The Sunday Mirror, stating, “Lee has been a difficult person to deal with. Jess has had to raise their daughter almost single-handedly.

‘It’s as if his own child is an inconvenience to him. Every time we ask for help he ignores us.’

To set the record straight, I’ve been adamant about clearing up this misconception: Despite what some might say, I’ve always shouldered the financial responsibility for my precious little girl. Regrettably, tensions between my family and Jessica have made it challenging to spend time with her – a situation that truly pains me deeply.

A representative for the singer shared with TopMob that Lee had been making regular, consistent payments to Jessica Keevil for the past year and a half, starting from when he discovered that Bluebell was his child.

In reality, Lee deposited funds into Jessica’s bank account as recently as the previous week. Any claim that he did not do so is utterly false and fictitious.

He mentioned that Lee hosted a birthday celebration for Bluebell at his sister’s residence in June of the previous year.

As a die-hard fan, I’ve always longed for the chance to visit the magical world of Bluebell. However, my heart ached in 2011 when I learned about the bitter feud between Lee’s and Jessica’s families that made it tricky for anyone to gain access. The dispute has cast a shadow over our shared love for this enchanting place.

Lee deeply values his role as father to Bluebell, and he feels disheartened and troubled that her relatives have decided to express their sentiments in a public setting.

Casey Batchelor and Jasmine Waltz

As a charmer, I found myself deeply involved in not just one, but two heartfelt relationships while residing in the Celebrity Big Brother house in 2014.

The star discovered himself in the middle of a romantic dilemma, as he became entangled in a love triangle involving Casey Batchelor and Jasmine Waltz, following his shared affectionate gestures with each woman.

As a die-hard admirer, I can’t help but reflect on how Lee, before stepping into that house, seemed to be playing a dual role: leading glamour model Casey to think we might have a chance, all while covertly choosing to spend the night with Jasmine instead.

1. Lee and Jasmine secretly stayed overnight in the UFO while Casey remained inside the house. The crafty pair were caught sharing a passionate kiss beneath Lee’s blankets, followed by an extended absence to the bathroom together.

2. Lee and Jasmine hid away in the UFO for the night, with Casey confined to the house. They were later seen locking lips under Lee’s bedsheets, and then slipped off together for a long spell in the bathroom.

3. While Casey was stuck inside the house, Lee and Jasmine spent the night in the UFO out of sight. Their clandestine activities included a kiss beneath Lee’s bedsheets and a prolonged disappearance to the bathroom together.

4. Casey remained indoors as Lee and Jasmine secretly stayed overnight in the UFO. They were seen exchanging a kiss under Lee’s blankets, followed by an extended time spent together in the bathroom.

5. With Casey confined to the house, Lee and Jasmine opted for a covert night in the UFO. Their secretive escapade included a shared kiss beneath Lee’s bedsheets and a prolonged trip to the bathroom together.

6. In the house, Casey was kept, while Lee and Jasmine spent the night hidden away in the UFO. They were spotted sharing a kiss under Lee’s bedsheets before disappearing for an extended time to the bathroom together.

Later on, he talked to Casey about their “nightly hugs” and mentioned that he wanted to dial things back since he wasn’t interested in a household relationship and didn’t want others to think of him as someone who was playing the field.

I can’t help but notice everyone’s chatter about us. Frankly, I had my concerns about how we’d be seen. But here I am, standing alone and proud.

When Casey asked if the singer viewed their relationship as merely a house arrangement, he replied: ‘No, actually, I didn’t desire anything beyond that. I enjoy cuddling and spending time with you. It seems everyone else is making a fuss over it. I’m not trying to make any declarations, but I don’t want us to treat each other any differently.’

After being evicted, Jasmine returned to the house later on to challenge Casey regarding her actions towards Lee.

In the given moment, Jasmine exclaimed to Casey: “Casey, there are some points I need to share with you. When Lee and I became a couple, he expressed that he truly admired me and considered you a friend.

‘As soon as you left you threw yourself at him. It’s quite embarrassing really.

You intentionally sought out an opportunity to cause me pain. I ended up being at home, watching as you flirted shamelessly with someone else, making suggestive comments and expressing your eagerness for physical intimacy with them.

Duncan James 

Additionally, Lee disclosed a shocking detail about him having threesomes with his fellow band member Duncan James, who publicly identifies as gay.

He confided in News outlet: “Duncan and I engaged in threesomes. Our relationship was quite adventurous, involving some wild activities. Previously, we have dabbled in such behaviors.

‘It’s not weird…you just high five each other. I think they call it a spit roast.’

Though Duncan denied rumors about a romantic entanglement with his bandmate Lee, he did acknowledge being involved in threesomes.

Lee confessed his past relationship during an open conversation with bold American Jasmine Waltz and ex-Apprentice finalist Luisa Zissman within the Celebrity Big Brother house in 2014, saying: “Yes, I’ve been involved with a man. Everyone has dabbled in experimental relationships. I’ll share more details with you later.

He remarked: ‘Naturally, yes. I’ve seen many parts of the world. I’ve never shared that fact before, as nobody has ever inquired about it.’

At the given moment, Duncan posts: ‘I’m still chuckling over this morning’s statements. Everyone is aware of the threesomes, but it hasn’t escalated beyond that point. To be clear, I adore Lee, but not to that extreme level.’

Another source shared with The Sun: “Lee deeply values his connection with Duncan. He believes that Duncan is the sole individual who genuinely grasps him.

They have a deep affection for one another, and yes, they’ve shared intimacy throughout their relationship. They are entirely at ease with each other and continue to take vacations together.

Lee, too, expressed his joy upon learning that Duncan publicly identified as gay in 2014, having earlier acknowledged being bisexual.

* He mentioned that it is his own venture, and later on… There’s no denying the joy he exudes lately. It appears as if he’s really “with it,” buddy.

Just recently, I ran into him and he seemed incredibly joyful. I adore him deeply. He feels akin to a soul mate or a sibling. It seems as if a burden has been lifted from him.

2022 saw Lee facing accusations of transphobia following a heated argument with a drag queen on Instagram. Later, he publicly acknowledged his bisexuality.

The musician playfully expressed his perspective on personal identity by telling his 172,000 fans, “Perhaps I’ll adopt an alien/star/seed/indigo child identity instead. I’d rather not be human anymore. Kindly honor my preferences.

Following the post, Layla Zee Susan (whose real name is Sammy Shepherd) countered Ryan’s perceived insensitivity with a retort, which prompted an offensive verbal response from Ryan directed at Layla.

In a heated conversation with The Sun, Ryan vehemently refuted allegations that he harbored transphobic or homophobic views. He stated emphatically: “I identify as bisexual and my bandmate is gay; it’s inconceivable for me to dishonor anyone in such a manner.

In regular circumstances, I tend to disregard such matters, but it feels as if someone is labeling me prejudiced when I am not. Duncan often dresses in drag, and he identifies as gay; Blue’s fanbase is predominantly within the LGBTQ+ community – this remark hit a sensitive nerve for me.

‘Some of my best friends are gay. I didn’t say one thing about him being in drag.’

Laura Anderson

In the year 2019, Lee was seen on a romantic outing with Laura Anderson from Love Island. They spent an upscale evening dining at Sexy Fish, located in Mayfair.

In the end, the relationship didn’t lead to anything lasting, and Laura later had a child with her former partner Gary Lucy in September 2023.

Verity Paris 

Back in January 2020, Lee and Verity were first seen spending time together, and they later vacationed romantically in February 2022.

I’m Verity Morley, known more famously as an Ariana Grande impersonator, who graced the stage of The X Factor back in 2009.

Reflecting on our initial encounter, he mentioned that it happened during the Christmas lights event where he was advertising, while Verity was one of the performers. We actually crossed paths backstage.

Around three weeks after, we had our initial outing together, where our shared passion for culinary delights, particularly sushi at that moment, brought us closer. It wasn’t until our second date that I became certain she was the one. We chose a Christmas tree and danced merrily in my living room to John Legend’s tunes.

On a thrilling Thursday, I found myself excitedly announcing that my partner and I are set to welcome our fourth little bundle of joy! Sharing a heartfelt moment with the world, I posted a photo of us embracing her growing belly, accompanied by a light-hearted caption: “Looks like we’ve done it once more!

We’re expecting baby number 4, expanding our delightful family even more! A new energy is about to join our group, and we couldn’t be more thankful. As for our little Elton John, he’s already tickling the ivories! 😊

Last October, the couple held an extravagant wedding celebration in Seville; this was two years following their private legal wedding in Gibraltar.

Three years past, he relocated to Spain to establish a family with Verity, who is 34 years old. In the year 2022, they exchanged wedding vows at a registry office.

Due to pandemic limitations preventing them from having their original wedding day surrounded by loved ones, the couple instead held a magical wedding in Seville on October 7th, and fortunately, all of their Blue bandmates were there to share in the celebration.

To OK!, Lee openly shared that there were moments throughout the day that brought tears to his eyes, describing those times as if they were surreal and almost like a dream.

At the wedding, the trio of kids from the couple actively participated in the event. Their little girls served as adorable flower girls, whereas Lee gracefully strolled down the aisle, cradling their newly born son, all while a string quartet serenaded the atmosphere with Hans Zimmer’s Time.

Speaking enthusiastically about his spouse, he confessed that during their second date, he felt certain she was the right one for him and expressed gratitude by saying “she saved my life.” When he first laid eyes on her in her gown, he was left speechless, describing it as a moment when he literally lost his breath.

Two years ago, when my partner and I exchanged vows, I expressed to The Sun that I had found someone who cherishes and encourages all aspects of my life.

Verity is a stunning, powerful, and compassionate woman whom I hold dear, and I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have her as the mother of my child, and now as my partner in marriage.

‘I’ve never felt calmer and more centered, and it’s all thanks to Verity. I’ve never been this content in my entire life due to the amazing family life I now enjoy.’

In 2020, the pair relocated to an apartment overlooking the beach in Costa del Sol. They openly acknowledged that they were experiencing a significant improvement in their lifestyle and a fresh sense of vitality since then.
