As the case of former Coronation Street actress Nikki Sanderson is about to be heard, who is her partner?

It was all about Prince Harry at the High Court the last couple of days and Jane Kerr, former Royal Editor of the Mirror yesterday and this morning, but this afternoon it will be the turn of actress Nikki Sanderson.

The Telegraph reported in May that barrister David Sherborne had said regarding Nikki that “The impact of the stories on Nikki Sanderson as aggravated by their false insinuations that she was promiscuous, causing her great upset and giving rise to her being subjected to mental and physical abuse, having people shout at her in the street calling her a ‘whore,’ ‘slag’ or ‘slut and even being physically assaulted on numerous occasions.”

When it comes to Nikki Sanderson’s personal life, she is dating former Emmerdale star Anthony Quinlan who joined her for the after party in Manchester for The British Soap Awards last Saturday night. The awards ceremony was held at The Lowry in Salford. 

Anthony Quinlan is best known for his roles as Gilly Roach in Channel 4’s Hollyoaks and Pete Barton in ITV’s Emmerdale. According to The Irish Mirror last year, “The 37 year old has swapped filming for fitness and now works as an online weight-loss coach. Anthony, who has 164K followers on Instagram, often shares photographs of him and Nikki on the social media platform. 

Anthony previously dated Strictly Come Dancing professional Dianne Buswell before she reportedly split up with him to start dating Joe Sugg, who was her then ballroom partner on the show back in 2018.

Before dating Anthony Quinlan, Nikki who has played the role of Maxine Minniver on Hollyoaks since 2012, dated businessman Greg Whitehurst. They reportedly first started dating in 2015 before breaking up during lockdown in 2020.
