Jack P. Shepherd’s Ex-Girlfriend Surprised by Lavish Wedding to Hanni Treweek as Friends Mock His Royal Attitude

Jack P. Shepherd’s ex-girlfriend and mother of his two children Lauren Shippey has been reportedly left unimpressed by his wedding to Hanni Treweek last week.

The Coronation Street star, 37, tied the knot with his love in a no expenses spared wedding at Manchester Cathedral with the lavish nuptials featuring a star-studded guest list and the groom arriving in a red mustang.

While fans were loving the nuptials, it is said that Lauren – who allegedly didn’t receive an invite – was left baffled by the ‘whole pomp and grandeur’ of the big day, which has been compared to the Royal Wedding.

A source told The Sun of Lauren’s thoughts: ‘Lauren can’t help but raise eyebrows about the whole thing, she has known Jack for a very long time and has two children with him, so she knows him very well.

‘The wedding is not what she or anyone really expected, and the whole pomp and grandeur has left people scratching their heads.

‘Her friends have been mocking him for acting like royalty, and she can see why.’

The source noted that Lauren – who has a four-year-old daughter with her partner Ben – has ‘well and truly moved on’ with her life and has ‘no hard feelings’ for Jack.

They noted that Lauren had a ‘difficult time’ during their relationship and has made ‘no secret of the issues’ they faced in the past.  

MailOnline have contacted Jack’s representatives for comment. 

Meanwhile, as friends and family happily gathered to watch the couple say ‘I do’, one person was notably absent from the celebrations – Jack’s 16-year-old daughter Nyla.

While Lauren and Jack’s other child, 11-year-old son Reuben was present on the day, their teen daughter appeared to be missing from both the ceremony and the evening reception at the Lowry Hotel.

Before his relationship with Hanni, Jack was engaged to ex Lauren, who he had been dating since he was 14 and shares two children with.

However, in 2010 their relationship hit the rocks when the David Platt actor had an affair that led to a pregnancy.

Lauren threw the actor out of the house after he cheated on her and fathered another child called Greyson following a one-night stand with sales executive Sammy Milewski.

It is understood that Jack does not have a parental relationship with Greyson other than to pay maintenance, according to The Sun.

After the scandal, Jack and Lauren got back together and he even proposed to her with a £3,000 ring after issuing a public apology.

He said at the time: ‘On Sunday, there were some articles printed about errors I have made in my private life. 

‘Over the years, I have enjoyed a successful career with Coronation Street, and with this, I have experienced privileges that have exceeded my own expectations.

‘The core ingredients to my success have come from the following areas; my family, ITV Granada, and specifically my girlfriend Lauren and daughter Nyla.

‘I would like to apologise to my family, for all the hurt and pain I have caused them, to ITV Granada for letting them down, and especially to Lauren and Nyla, who are the most important people in my life.

‘I now need to concentrate on what is really important, my family and my career, as I have abused my position as an employee, partner and father, and for that I am deeply sorry.’ 

The couple then got back together, before eventually splitting again in 2017 after 15 years together.

Meanwhile, Jack and his long-term love Hanni got engaged during a romantic safari holiday in the Serengeti in June 2024.

At the time, the couple posed for loved-up snaps in their safari getups to announce the happy news on social media.

Flashing her sparkling engagement ring, Hannah beamed for the camera before kissing her new fiancé.

Captioning the snaps, she gushed: ‘05.06.24 I said YES to forever!!!’

Jack and Hanni have been dating since 2017, after meeting on the soap when she worked in the press office.

She later became a storyliner on the ITV show, before quitting to work as a fashion influencer.

Their big day saw Jack, who has played David since 2000, shared a passionate kiss with Hanni as white confetti fell on them after their wedding ceremony in July.

The soapstar cut a dapper figure in a white suit as he arrived in a red mustang with his mother and his son Reuben.

Hanni arrived shortly after, and looked gorgeous in an elegant white gown, with lace detail and a long trail.  

Fellow Corrie star Lucy Fallon was amongst the guests as well as Tina O’Brien, who plays his sister Sarah, and his on-screen wife Julia Goulding. 

Other Corrie stars in attendance included Samia Longchambon, Colson Smith, Ben Price, Alan Halsall and Jayne Danson.
