Kym Marsh is reportedly set to marry for the fourth time after announcing her engagement to Tom Dickinson, her fitness fanatic boyfriend, after just six months of dating. The 49-year-old actress, known for her work on Coronation Street and Loose Women, began her relationship with Tom in autumn 2025, following her breakup with Samuel Thomas. Now, after a whirlwind romance, Kym is celebrating her engagement to Tom, and fans are eager to see what comes next for the couple.
A Fairytale Proposal in Paris
Tom popped the question during a romantic trip to Paris, where he proposed near the iconic Eiffel Tower. The proposal has been described as nothing short of a fairytale, with a source telling The Sun that Kym was overwhelmed with emotion when Tom got down on one knee. “She said yes immediately,” the source said. “She has the most beautiful ring and can’t wait to plan their special day.”
The couple’s engagement marks a significant step in their relationship, and Kym is said to be “on cloud nine” after the heartfelt proposal. Despite the short time they’ve been together, the pair appear to be deeply in love, with Kym sharing multiple photos and moments from their time together on social media.
Kym’s Fourth Marriage: A New Chapter
This will be Kym’s fourth marriage, following her previous unions with army major Scott Ratcliff, Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas, and EastEnders star Jack Ryder. While Kym’s love life has been under public scrutiny, it seems that she’s found happiness again with Tom. After her previous breakup with Samuel, Kym quickly found love again with Tom, who is reportedly a great match for her.
According to insiders, Tom has already met Kym’s daughter, Emilie, and the couple has spent time away together, further solidifying their bond. “They’ve already enjoyed a night away together, and he’s been on nights out with her pals,” the source said, adding that Tom is “so hunky” and has quickly won over Kym’s friends and family.
The Speed of Their Relationship
While some may question the rapid pace of Kym and Tom’s relationship, it’s clear that Kym is fully invested. “Kym always throws herself fully into everything – including relationships,” the source noted. The couple’s engagement after only six months together may seem swift, but for Kym, it appears that she has found something special with Tom.
A New Beginning After Heartache
Kym’s love life has certainly seen its share of ups and downs, with her previous marriages and the tragic loss of her son Archie, who was born prematurely and passed away shortly after birth. She has also been very open about her relationship struggles, including the end of her romance with Samuel, who was much younger than her. After their breakup, Kym focused on her family and career, and now, she’s found new joy with Tom.
Her past heartbreaks seem to have shaped her into someone who embraces love with an open heart, and she is excited to share her future with Tom. “It’s been a tough road, but this is a new chapter, and I’m really excited to see where it takes us,” Kym shared in a recent interview.
