A secret affair? Lincoln appeared in court this week, accused of stealing £12,164 from a construction company, as Denise was flashing her bra on the restaurant

Denise left on Tuesday morning for a short lived appearance in this Morning before
joining her colleagues within the nearby Loose Women studios.

After the show, the previous Coronation
Street star then dashed to the Landmark Hotel in Marylebone for coffee together with her toyboy.

A fan who spotted the pair told the newspaper: ‘They gave the look of the other
couple. It was busy within the bar but they weren’t being discreet in any respect,
which was surprising after she said everything was comfortable with her husband
Tim.

‘She didn’t appear to care who saw them
and what people thought of her being with him… although everyone
was really nice to her within the bar.’

Denise then caught a train back to the house she shares with Tim in Cheshire.

A source told the newspaper: ‘She’s
clearly a torn woman and finding all of it very difficult. She loves Tim
dearly and only wants the simplest for her children, but she will be able to’t help her
strong feelings for Lincoln. They haven’t changed during her time on
Celebrity Big Brother.

‘Denise has had a really busy week together with her TV commitments after ­leaving the show but has still found time for Lincoln.

‘She is concerned her marriage has
taken its course, however it’s not that easy. When she’s in front of her
viewers on Loose Women, chatting with her fans in the street and playing up
for the photographers she makes out that every one is ok at home .’

Lover: Carpenter Steve Murray, who Denise admitted to having an affair with

Denise is thought to have met Lincoln at a nightclub in Central London last April while she was at the
Dancing on Ice tour.

They are said to have gone back to his flat in Hampstead
afterwards.

They then saw one another casually while she was filming Loose Women in London and from September the connection
began to become more serious.

She apparently even discussed leaving Tim
together with her friends and spent an evening with Lincoln on the Marriott before going into the fame Big Brother house.

Lincoln’s checkered past was revealed this week after he appeared in court charged with stealing £12,000 cash from a building firm.

He is accused of stealing the cash from FM Conway, a construction company based in Dartford, Kent, in 2009.

The case was adjourned until May.

Meanwhile, in 2004, Denise confessed to having an affair with TV studio carpenter Steve Murray.

But in her ­autobiography she said she had repaired
her marriage after that affair.

Denise caused a stir inside the
Celebrity Big Brother house together with her erratic behaviour and
her clashes with Reservoir Dogs actor Michael Madsen.

After leaving the home last Friday
night, Michael revealed: ‘She offered to sleep with me various
times. She just kept trying.’

Denise hit back later saying she was happily married.

‘Even at 53, I don’t go without my
offers. Why, once I have a husband and kids watching at home, would I
beg him for sex?’
