Kym Marsh turns heads in a plunging dress as she kisses fiancé Tom Dickinson while celebrating her 50th birthday during family holiday in Crete

Kym Marsh turned heads in a plunging black dress as she packed on the PDA with fiancé Tom Dickinson on a family holiday in Crete on Tuesday. 

The former Coronation Street actress couldn't contain her smile as she shared a glimpse into her sun-soaked 50th birthday celebrations on Instagram. 

Kym couldn't keep her hands off fiancé Tom as they kissed for a sweet snap during a boozy night out. 

The actress got engaged for the fourth time to fitness fanatic Tom in March after a whirlwind seven month romance. 

Kym enjoyed a lashish lunch which was decorated with gold '50' balloons before hopping on a catamaran with her friends and family. 

The soap star slipped into a white bikini as she soaked up the sun while partying out at sea.

She wrote: 'Crete 2026 part 1: what an amazing time we had! I can’t express how lucky I feel to be surrounded by these wonderful people, the people I get to call my family.

'Missed my mum who couldn’t come along this time but we are making you come next year mother!!! @marshyswife haha! 

'Thank you for the memories made, the laughs and the fun, and for the tears we shared for those who can no longer be with us. 

'For the amazing 50th white dress party you threw me, knowing full well I would wear black hahah! And generally for making every second special. I love you all with all of my heart. Part 2 to come cos I have too many pics to share!'

Kym began dating Tom in autumn last year - eight months after she ended her whirlwind romance with Samuel Thomas, who was 19 years her junior.

It was reported in October that Kym had found love again with a fitness fanatic called after the pair were introduced through friends.

She then identified her man when she shared a series of photos to her Instagram - confirming their romance and tagging his account.

In March it was said that Tom asked Kym to marry him in a romantic proposal by the Eiffel Tower in Paris.

Kym was 'on cloud nine' after reportedly saying yes 'immediately' when Tom popped the question.

A source told The Sun: 'Their romance has been like a fairytale. Tom had planned the perfect proposal and got down on one knee next to the Eiffel Tower.

'Kym was overcome, but she said yes immediately. She has the most beautiful ring and can’t wait to plan their special day.'

It will be Kym's fourth marriage, after previously wedding army major Scott Ratcliff, Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas and EastEnders star Jack Ryder.

The couple were seen out for the first time together in November as they enjoyed a day out in Bakewell.

Earlier this year, Kym posted loved-up snaps with Tom, after it was revealed she had joined the dating app Hinge last year following the Samuel split.

She took to Instagram Stories to share an image posted by Tom, in which the duo enjoyed a steamy smooch with the camera in selfie mode.

Tom's Instagram handle is @tom_dicko_ and his bio on the site lists an array of challenges he has completed, including The Welsh 3000s Challenge - a mission to climb all 15 of the mountains over 3000ft in Wales within the space of 24 hours.

A source told The Sun: 'They have already enjoyed a night away together and he's met her daughter Emilie, so things are moving fast.

'He's also been on nights out with her pals and was the centre of attention, which is no surprise because he's so hunky. Kym always throws herself fully into everything – including relationships.'

Kym ended her romance with ex Samuel before Christmas in 2024, after the pair finished touring with the show 101 Dalmatians: The Musical.

She was forced to defend herself after revealing her romance with Samuel, who is the same age as her oldest son, having gushed on social media that he is her 'soulmate'.

Amid her break-up, sources told The Sun at the time that once their tour finished, Kym found it more difficult to spend time with him.

Kym shares her son David, 30, and daughter actress Emilie, 28, with her ex David Cunliffe. 

She is also a mother to 14-year-old daughter Poppy, whom she shares with ex-husband and Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas, as well son Archie who was born 18 weeks premature in 2009 and passed away shortly after birth.

Kym and Jamie first met on a train as they made their way to the 2007 TV Quick Awards before developing a romance in July 2008 - a year before Kym's divorce from ex-husband Jack Ryder.
