Sheridan Smith cut a casual figure on Sunday as she left theatre rehearsals in central London.

The actress, 41, who was rehearsing for her role in the new West End production of Shirley Valentine, donned a quirky baseball cap with the word 'flirt' on the front. 

It comes after Sheridan kicked off the new year looking for some romance, as she has reportedly joined celebrity dating app Raya. 

Sheridan looked low-key in a black short sleeved jumper, teamed with a pair of blue jeans and Nike trainers.  

Sheridan is said to be set for a busy year, with sources sharing that she doesn't have time to head out and meet people - so an app works better.

It comes as she is thought to have been single for a year, following her split from boyfriend Alex Lawler in 2022.

Sheridan has kitted out her profile with a collection of gorgeous snaps to catch attention, according to The Sun.

While the publication also reports that she has chosen Ed Sheeran's Shivers for her profile song.

'Sheridan is going to be busy in rehearsals for her new stage show, so she hasn’t got time to be going out and trying to meet guys, swiping on an app and having quiet, intimate chats is much more suited to her lifestyle,' a source told them.

They continued that she was 'looking for new adventures in 2023' with the dating app.

And she's no stranger to love in the modern age, after meeting former fiancé Jamie Horn via Tinder in 2018.

The couple went on to have a son together, Billy, in 2020, but split a year later as Sheridan was said to be 'devastated'.

She then embarked on a relationship with actor Alex Lawler, before their split in January 2021.

The couple had first dated more than two decades ago, before reuniting last September to rekindle their romance. Sheridan since deleted any trace of the Mancunian actor from her social media.

A source told the publication: 'Sheridan and Alex’s relationship ended a few weeks ago. There was no major drama and they both agreed their romance had run its course.
