An insider told The Sun: ‘Ricky and Chelsea had a great time together, but it ended up being more of a fling.

‘Things are still really amicable and they will be friends going forward.’

A representative for Ricky declined to comment when contacted by . has reached out to Chelsea for comment.

The couple enjoyed a trip to sunny Tenerife in August last year but were said to be ‘taking things slow’, and went Instagram official in October.

Chelsea works as a model for Playboy and regularly shares saucy snaps on social media.

Ricky previously sparked romance rumours with another Playboy model, Carla Howe, a few years ago.

In 2022, Ricky went public with his new beauty therapist girlfriend Angela Blemmings as the couple enjoyed a romantic getaway in Dublin.

The former boxer took to Instagram to share a slew of loved-up snaps with his new partner, who owns EyeCandy beauty salon in Stalybridge.

The pair appeared in high spirits as they consumed several pints of Guinness, while trying out a few pubs in the area.

Angela went Instagram official with Ricky on June 30, 2022 when she shared a cosy selfie of the two of them and captioned it: ‘Lovely afternoon with the best company.’

Ricky split from his ex-girlfriend Marie Pollard in May 2022, less than a year after getting back together.

The former world champ first dated glam Marie back in 2017 but the pair decided to give things a go again in 2022.

At the time, a rep for Ricky said: ‘The split was amicable, they keep in touch and remain as friends.’

Ricky has three kids with ex-partner Jennifer Dooley, who he was engaged to, and is also now a grandfather.

World champion boxer Ricky was announced in September last year as the first celebrity to be taking part in the upcoming series of Dancing On Ice.

Revealing the news exclusively on This Morning at the time, he said: If I can hold my nerve in the boxing ring I should be able to hold my nerve in the ice rink. I like setting new challenges and keeping myself busy!’

The sporting icon admitted his daughters are finding his latest signing ‘absolutlely hilarious’ but he said that he believes the show will be good for his well-being.

He said: ‘It was well documented that I struggled when I retired from boxing amongst a few other things and I’m trying to do my bit for mental health… I’ve never been shy to discuss it.’

‘When I retired I was sat there with nothing to do and my world fell apart a little bit. It’s all about keeping busy and doing things that are positive and new adventures!’

He also said: ‘I can dance on the solid floor but I don’t know how I’ll do on the dance floor. It’s more about being disciplined and about believing in yourself.

‘New adventures don’t come more than Dancing On Ice. It is a challenge and with boxing. it is a balance.

‘You remember dance sequencing and moves and in boxing, you do a little bit, remembering combinations and stuff like that. I should have the attributes to do pretty well.’

Ricky reflected on his past struggles with ‘depression, addiction and shame’ following the announcement and talked about his documentary, Hatton, which came out on Sky and NOW back in August last year.

The 90-minute film looked at how his relationships with those closest to him fell apart.

And on This Morning, Ricky said: ‘I split up with the Mrs and fell out with my mum and dad and Billy Graham, [his former trainer]. I had no more boxing and it was bizarre.

‘It all went tits up and bang, bang. It was horrific for me. I did the documentary so I opened up my heart.

‘I’m doing Dancing On Ice now because I am in a good place. I want to do positive things and move forward in my life.’

Dancing on Ice 2024 begins on Sunday 14 January at 6:30pm on ITV1 and ITX.
