The former 'Emmerdale' star caused controversy during an appearance on 'Celebrity Big Brother' last year when she falsely accused Ryan Thomas of punching her, and while her partner Lee Walton stood by her then, the pair are said to have gone their separate ways.

A source The Sun newspaper: "She and Lee got very serious very quickly but it has ended completely. She is gutted."

Lee has reportedly moved on with another woman.

Roxanne's accusation against Ryan on 'CBB' last August prompted more than 25,000 viewer complaints to Ofcom, and after leaving the house she admitted she "got it wrong".

What's more, the 'Lake Placid 3' actress got close to 'Married at First Sight' star Ben Jardine on the show, and he described her as his "soulmate".

However, Lee insisted he wasn't worried about Roxanne and Ben's bond, and still planned to marry the former soap star when she left the house.

He said at the time: "I am not worried. I know she loves me and I love her and we're strong. Nothing will change when she gets out, other than we'll get married."

Roxanne and Lee got engaged when he popped the question just one week after they met.

She confirmed the news just three days before entering the 'CBB' house last summer.

The 36-year-old actress said: "We were engaged within a week of meeting! I know it sounds crazy, but I knew my heart."

Lee, 40, explained: "I was searching '#ElvisPresley' because I'm a massive fan and I saw her post. I recognised her from when I used to go round to my parents' place every Friday night.

"My dad is a big 'Emmerdale' fan so he'd always have it on, and Roxanne stood out. I'd see her in magazines and she always caught my eye."
