Sheridan Smith is still wearing her £10,000 ring engagement ring from ex-fiancé Jamie Horn almost a month after their split

Sheridan Smith appeared to still be wearing her sparkling engagement ring on Wednesday.

Taking to Instagram, the star, 40, smiled and admitted to fans she was waiting to watch Love Island, and on her left tattooed hand, the sparkler given to her by ex-Jamie Horn – said to be worth £10,000 – was visible.

The actress – who split from long term partner Jamie, 31, three weeks ago, a year after giving birth to their son Billy – asked people not to judge her choice of entertainment and looked radiant while chatting to fans.

Despite her recent absence from social media, Sheridan appeared in high spirits as she showed off her new blonde hairdo and played the song Love Is In The Air.

Whilst some choose not to wear their engagement ring following a split some people continue to wear it as a reminder of their continued friendship with their ex or of the marriage ended relatively amicably.

There is no obligation to return a ring unless it’s been stated so in advance.

Sheridan, who cheekily stuck out her tongue in a video, told fans: ‘Waiting for Love Island… Don’t judge me.’

A representative for Sheridan has been contacted by MailOnline for a comment.

The Cilla star has previously dated a former Love Island contestant in the shape of part time model Jordan Ring who was nicknamed the Hulk by fans of the show due to his six foot four frame.

Jordan claimed Sheridan got in touch with him after spotting him on Love Island, where he was a contestant in the 2015 series and they subsequently had a night of passion.

Sheridan and Jamie told The Sun at the beginning of July that they had decided to go their separate ways.
