manchestereveningnews.co.ukRicky Hatton has been spotted cosying up to Claire Sweeney on a night out together - just months after they appeared on Dancing On Ice.
The Manchester boxing hero, 45 and Coronation Street actress, 52, both took part in the ITV reality show earlier this year. Despite being eliminated from the series, which was eventually won by actor Ryan Thomas, the pair appear to have bonded as they were spotted at the pub together in Ricky's hometown of Hyde, Tameside, on Saturday.
They were seen leaving their first boozer with friends at around 6pm, with Ricky carrying bottles of Veuve Clicquot champagne.
The pair were later spotted arm in arm arriving at another nearby pub at about 11pm, with their arms around one another.
