Lucien Laviscount’s love rollercoaster has had more twists and turns than a daytime soap opera. Whether he’s cosying up to Kerry Katona or sizzling with Shakira, one thing’s for sure: Lucien knows how to keep us all guessing.
This British heartthrob has had more romance in his life than a Netflix rom-com series. So, here’s a full rundown of the known dating history of Lucien Laviscount.
Sophie Reade – 2010
In 2010, Lucien, then 17, dipped his toe into the world of celebrity romance with glamour model Sophie Reade.

Nevertheless, it marked the beginning of Lucien’s journey into the glitzy realm of celebrity love affairs. Who knew a reality TV stint could lead to real-life romance?
Kerry Katona – 2011
Fast forward to 2011, and Lucien found himself entangled in a reality TV romance with none other than Kerry Katona. Their chemistry on Celebrity Big Brother was undeniable, and their on-screen flirtations spilled over into the real world. However, their whirlwind romance was short-lived, lasting only a few months, leaving fans yearning for more drama from this dynamic duo. The age gap of 12 years didn’t seem to deter their initial attraction.
Chelsee Healey – 2011
While starring on the BBC series Waterloo Road, Lucien’s on-screen chemistry with co-star Chelsee Healey set tongues wagging. Rumours of a real-life romance swirled, but their off-screen connection failed to ignite into a lasting relationship. Despite their on-screen sparks, their love story remained confined to the small screen. Looks like life didn’t imitate art in this case.
Leigh-Anne Pinnock – 2012
