Careful, Claire Sweeney! New flame Ricky Hatton comes with a turbulent past - from dating a Playboy...

It is rumored that he has strong feelings for Claire Sweeney and is deeply infatuated with her. They were able to meet while participating in this year's edition of Dancing On Ice.

Based on his previous romantic experiences, Ricky Hatton, aged 45, has not had the best fortune in matters of the heart.

The ex-British boxing pro ended his relationship with his betrothed Jennifer Dooley, who is also the mother of his two daughters named Millie and Fearne. They were together for a total of 11 years, but separated in 2016.

After that, he has experienced a series of unsuccessful love affairs - ranging from Angela Blemmings, a beauty therapist, to Chelsea Claire, a Playboy model who was 14 years younger than him.

Is it possible that the athlete's fortune is on the brink of alteration? On Sunday in Manchester, he appeared smitten with his Dancing on Ice colleague, Claire, 52.

On Sunday, Ricky Hatton, who stars alongside Claire Sweeney on Dancing on Ice, was spotted looking very affectionate with her in Manchester. The two seem to have quite the bond.

As per reports, the duo is not in any committed relationship and they were spotted embracing each other as they relished a night out on a boozy tour of pubs.

According to an insider who spoke with The Sun, these two individuals became acquainted while on the show Dancing On Ice and connected well. Their relationship eventually turned romantic and they've gone out on a few dates. Although it's still early for them, they definitely have chemistry and have been enjoying each other's company.

As per a different informant, the duo has gone out on various occasions and Ricky is utterly smitten.

According to the Mirror, there was a strong spark between the two people. Even though Ricky didn't stay on the show for long, he reached out to her and began trying to romance her.

They have gone out together multiple times, and Saturday was merely one of many. They have been spending a lot of time together, and he is utterly infatuated.

It appears to be an improbable combination, but he has continuously managed to attract women with his charming persona. Claire is one of many who have fallen for him.

Can the actress finally put an end to Ricky's streak of bad luck in relationships? In this article, FEMAIL provides information about the former boxer's troubled romantic history...

Jennifer Dooley was pictured with Ricky during the moment when he was awarded his MBE at the 2007 New Year Honours ceremony. The couple were in a relationship from 2005 to 2016.

Ricky and his partner had a rocky relationship that lasted from 2005 to 2016. Ricky's habit of going out to drink with other women caused a lot of problems in the relationship, and it became too much for the woman he had two daughters with.

Ricky had a short-term romance with a lady named Claire when he was in his early twenties. Claire gave birth to his son, who is a professional boxer named Campbell Hatton. He was born on January 9th in the year 2001.

Ricky was brought into this world in Stockport, Greater Manchester in the year of 1978. He spent the most time in a romantic partnership with Jennifer Dooley, starting from 2005 until 2016.

Jennifer witnessed some of the most significant moments of his career, including his victory or retention of numerous world championships and attendance at the MBE award ceremony during the New Year Honours in 2007.

In 2007, Jennifer, who was a teacher at Manchester College of Art and Technology, decided to leave her job and travel to Las Vegas to witness the title match between the unbeaten British fighter and Floyd Mayweather. Despite her support, the British fighter lost the match.

Ricky proposed marriage to Jennifer on February 14, 2009, which happened to be Valentine's Day. Inspired by Elvis Presley's popular song, he named their Cheshire residence the 'Heartbreak Hotel'.

Back in 2010, a footage of Ricky indulging in cocaine was disclosed that resulted in his admission to rehabilitation. During this period of his recovery, Jennifer remained supportive by his side.

But, after one more month had passed, the Mirror newspaper was told by Irish boxing champion Emma Bowe about her 11-month affair with the boxer. They first met in Dublin when she asked for his signature.

Jennifer and Ricky had a difficult time after the fighter retired in 2012, which resulted in him frequently moving in and out of their expensive home that costs £3 million.

In December of 2013, there was a big fight during the holidays and Ricky decided to move out. A few months later, in June of 2014, he returned home but then left again after disappearing on a drunken vacation to Lanzarote.

Their tumultuous year was left behind as they embarked on a vacation to Tenerife with their two daughters at the start of the New Year.

During 2016, Ricky's habit of excessive drinking led to several nights out that ultimately caused the end of his 11-year relationship with Jennifer. The final straw came when images emerged of him partying with other women, clearly showing his inebriated and reckless behavior.

According to friends who spoke to the Sunday People, Jennifer terminated their long-standing relationship because she was fed up with his constant partying.

Ricky expressed his feelings about Jennifer's breakup, sharing that he feels very sad about it since they were together for a long time. There are moments when he struggles to cope with the situation, and he cannot deny this reality.

Ricky had a fun night with Carla Howe, a Playboy model, after his split in the following year. However, speculations about them being in a relationship were never validated.

Ricky began a romantic involvement with his close friend Marie Pollard in the year 2017. (Marie Pollard is visible in the picture with the boxer).

The couple went their separate ways the next year, but made an unsuccessful effort to reignite their relationship in 2021.

Ricky got into a relationship with his close friend Marie Pollard in 2017. Throughout the year, when he was 39 years old, he shared several pictures with his new girlfriend.

During a memorable early date, Ricky had planned to take Marie to the Church Inn for some fun. However, their outing took an unexpected turn and they wound up at a religious institution instead of a bar.

According to an insider, the celebrity is romantically involved with Marie. The source revealed that they have been acquaintances for a while, but recently their relationship has become more intimate.

After parting ways with Jennifer, Ricky has struggled with finding love. Despite his reputation as a tough fighter, the truth is that he is actually quite sensitive.

Ricky and Marie have been friends for a long time, but they have recently become very close. Marie puts in a lot of effort to stay in good physical condition, which has made her attractive to Ricky. Ricky, just like in his profession, is definitely dating someone who is out of his league.

Even though they had met Ricky's family and had bonded over his love for Manchester City FC, the couple had decided to end their relationship by July 2018.

In 2021, Ricky was able to reignite the passion he shared with Marie for a brief period of time, lasting less than a year. However, come July of 2022, the former boxer announced his new relationship with a woman named Angela Blemmings.

In a humorous way, Ricky referred to his partner Charlie Nordell (pictured on the right) as the person who keeps him in line. Despite his previous struggles with alcohol and drug addiction, she has been a supportive force in his life for the past two years.

Not long after breaking up with Marie for the first time in 2018, Ricky uploaded a collection of photos featuring his new partner, Charlie Nordell, during a vacation in Las Vegas.

The pair lodged at the renowned hotel, Caesar's Palace, and took several affectionate pictures to commemorate their intimate getaway.

The athlete stated, "It was enjoyable to spend a night in Vegas without getting into a fight."

He lovingly gave Charlie the nickname 'fun police' because she was one of the people who tried to keep Ricky on the right path after he retired in 2012.

However, the couple ended their relationship after being together for two years. According to a source who spoke to The Sun, they had different goals, and Charlie intended to relocate to Dubai in 2020.

When it happened, someone representing Ricky stated that the separation was friendly. They still communicate with each other and continue to have a friendship.

The ex-pugilist made his relationship with Angela Blemmings known to the public in July of 2022.

Angela went to the BBC Sports Personality Of The Year ceremony in December 2022 with her partner, but they broke up in the following year.

He went on a romantic trip to Dublin with the owner of EyeCandy beauty salon in Stalybridge, who happens to be a beauty therapist.

During Autumn, Ricky was getting ready for his comeback fight against Marco Antonio Barrera, which was postponed. Although he had a few pints of Guinness during the trip, Ricky impressed everyone with his slimmer physique.

On June 30, 2022, Angela disclosed her romantic relationship with Ricky on Instagram by posting a sweet selfie of themselves together, and expressed her happiness by writing, "Had a fantastic afternoon with my favorite company."

In December, Angela and Ricky were both present on the red carpet for the BBC Sports Personality Of The Year event.

However, the succeeding year was evidently not a joyous one for the pair since they parted ways.

Allegedly, Ricky Hatton has separated from his girlfriend, Chelsea Claire, who is a model for Playboy. The couple were together for four months before the breakup occurred. (The picture shows the now-former couple together.)

The 45-year-old ex-boxer and the stunning 31-year-old lady made their relationship public in October 2023 by posting numerous affectionate pictures of themselves on Instagram.

Last year in August, the couple went on a delightful vacation to the sunny destination of Tenerife. However, prior to their breakup, they were reportedly moving at a slow pace in their relationship. This was captured in a photograph taken during their trip.

Reportedly, Ricky entered a fling with Chelsea Claire, who happens to be a Playboy model, in 2023. However, a source from the Sun claims that this relationship did not last long.

Their separation became public in January 2024, just before Ricky's scheduled appearance on Dancing on Ice.

In October 2023, the ex-boxer and the gorgeous person, who was 31 years old and romantically involved, made their relationship public by posting numerous affectionate pictures of themselves on Instagram.

According to a confidential source quoted by The Sun, Ricky and Chelsea enjoyed each other's company, but their romantic relationship turned out to be short-lived and casual.

Ricky and the other person are at different points in their lives. Ricky is focusing on training and is giving it his all. Even though they are separating, they are still on good terms and plan to remain friends.

When MailOnline tried to contact Ricky's representative for a comment, they refused to make a statement. MailOnline also contacted Chelsea to ask for her opinion.

In August 2023, the couple had a delightful vacation in the sunny locale of Tenerife. However, they were reported to be taking their relationship slowly and only made their official debut on Instagram in October.

Chelsea is a model for Playboy and frequently posts sensuous pictures on social media.
