Hannah Waddingham Guides Surgeon on Red Carpet Debut

She's no stranger to a red carpet and the bright lights of the showbiz world, but for her new man it is slightly territory. 

And made sure to show handsome spinal surgeon Nick Beresford-Cleary the ropes as they posed together at the Variety Power Of Women event in London on Wednesday. 

In a sweet video shared to Instagram from the event, the star, 51, was seen keeping Nick in check as she showed him which camera to look at and pulled him into an embrace. 

Pointing in the direction of the cameras, Hannah showed her man how to sweep across the line of snappers as they posed for the glamorous shots. 

The couple looked smitten together as they made their red carpet debut, weeks after the actress confirmed she was in a relationship. 

Hannah hasn't named her new boyfriend, but back in March she fuelled romance rumours when she was pictured with Nick at .

And on Wednesday they looked picture perfect together as Hannah showcased her hourglass figure as she went braless in a plunging halterneck gown which featured a daring thigh-high split. 

Last month, Hannah let slip on her love life in her cover story interview with Women's Health UK, giggling that her new man is 'very good looking' and 'really lovely'.

Hannah became a single mother after her relationship with her partner Gianluca Cugnetto broke down when their daughter was two, and since then she has remained focused on her life with Kitty, now 11.

'It's taken me eight years,' Hannah admitted to the magazine, when asked about getting into a new relationship. 'I didn't really have the space mentally or emotionally for that.

'I've hunkered down and focused on my girl and me. [But] now I'm ready to stick my head above the parapet a bit more.'

When asked if 'it's a very good-looking parapet,' Hannah laughed and confirmed 'it is!'

'And it's really lovely too, obviously, my relationship. But the best thing about it is, firstly, being happy and strong in myself.'

Nick is a Consultant Spine Surgeon at Oxford University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and King Edward VII Hospital, who specialises in both elective and emergency spinal surgeries.

He kickstarted his career in mechanical engineering, followed by a medical degree at Edinburgh University.

Hannah has previously explained how she manifested her role in Ted Lasso after finding herself a single mother to her daughter.
