Holby City’s Alex Walkinshaw ‘dating co-star Natasha after marriage split’

Holby City’s Alex Walkinshaw has reportedly moved on from his broken marriage with younger co-star Natasha Morgan after the pair ‘hit it off’ on set.

The 45-year-old star, who plays Adrian ‘Fletch’ Fletcher on the BBC1 soap, is reportedly seeing Natasha after ending his 11-year marriage with Sarah Trusler.

Pictures of the pair reportedly snapped outside his flat show them deep in conversation as he carries his car keys and she looks up at him.

According to the Sun On Sunday, Alex split from makeup artist Sarah around 18 months ago. They share two teenage children together and were hit with rumours back in 2014 when he was accused of sending saucy texts to a glamour model behind his wife’s back.

A source told the newspaper that Alex and Natasha have been enjoying each other’s company, despite their 12-year age gap.

“Alex and Natasha grew close after meeting on set,” said the mole.

“They really hit it off and she likes to ask him for advice on her career. She has been comforting him after splitting from his wife.

“It’s obviously a huge change for Alex and she has helped support him through that.”

The source added: “He has been focusing on his character in Holby City and his craft as an actor.

“He loves his job and it’s been a great outlet for him.”
