EastEnders star Max Bowden stepped out with Katie McGlynn amid rumours they’re growing close after his split from his girlfriend. 

The actor, 30, and his ex Tori Allen-Martin went their separate ways last month after meeting when they starred together in the musical Midnight Cowboy. 

The former couple were said to have been ‘inseparable’ during the show’s run but split ahead of his brief soap return as Ben Mitchell. 

Heading out in Malvern on Monday, Max and Katie, 32, were all smiles as they made their way to the Malvern Royal Theatre.

Katie wrapped up warm in a camouflage print Dry Robe, wile Max opted for a green quarter zip sweater and jeans. 

Max is starring in touring play Murder At Midnight alongside Katie – who split from TOWIE star Ricky Rayment in July – with the pair reportedly having ‘chemistry’.

A source told The Sun last week: ‘Max and Katie have been around each other for years. They were in the soap world for so long where everyone knows each other.

‘They’ve got loads in common and both have found themselves single at the same time as doing the tour.

‘They get on well and have been spending time together – it’s clear they’ve got chemistry. Who knows what the future holds?’

Representatives for Max and Katie have been contacted by MailOnline for comment. 

Last month Max split from Tori after their six month romance ‘fizzled out’.

Tori is best known for her role in BBC sitcom Here We Go in which she plays Cherry alongside Alison Steadman and Katherine Parkinson.

Meanwhile back in July the Daily Mail revealed that Katie had split from Ricky.

The couple, who started dating after meeting on a cruise ship in 2023, went their separate ways despite sparking engagement speculation when Katie was pictured wearing a diamond ring last Valentine’s Day.

Katie, who left Corrie in 2022 after her character Sinead Tinker died of cervical cancer, and Ricky, famed for his appearances on ITVBe’s The Only Way Is Essex, said they ‘couldn’t be happier’ during their first interview as a couple last year. 

But in summer, the pair called time on their year-long romance, which saw Katie who’s Manchester based, and Ricky, 34, who lives in Essex, commit to each other despite living in different cities.

The exes have even removed all trace of each other from their respective Instagram profiles including loved up posts from holidays together and the announcement of their relationship.

A source revealed to Daily Mail: ‘Katie and Ricky have ended their romance, they’re still friends and want to remain civil but in terms of a romantic relationship, it’s definitely over.

‘It was difficult at times for them dating even though they lived miles apart from each other but ultimately it just wasn’t meant to be.’ 

Ricky said Katie first caught his eye as she appeared on ITV soap Coronation Street, where she portrayed Sinead Tinker between April 2013 and March 2020. 

Katie’s exit storyline involved her character Sinead dying from cervical cancer and the devastating realities such a loss has on close friends and family.
