Ryan Thomas<\/a> and Lucy Mecklenburgh have been giving fans a glimpse inside their Manchester home transformation.<\/p>\n

The former Coronation Street actor, 41, and The Only Way is Essex<\/a> star, 34, originally bought their house in 2021 but were still waiting to move in.<\/a><\/p>\n

Lucy had been keeping her Instagram<\/a> followers up to date with the progress being made on their house as they completely renovated the interior.<\/p>\n

Two years after originally buying the place and selling their former property in Essex,\u00a0Ryan and Lucy were able to move\u00a0<\/a>into their new family home and celebrate.<\/p>\n

But despite having a gorgeous new abode, Lucy recently candidly revealed that she and Ryan are actually sleeping in separate rooms.<\/p>\n

After appearing as a guest on Ryan\u2019s podcast<\/a> At Home with the Thomas Bro\u2019s <\/a>with his brothers Scott and Adam, Lucy told listeners: \u2018Basically we sleep in separate bedrooms because Ryan is a nightmare sleeper. Ryan snores, he sleep talks, he whacks me in his sleep.\u2019<\/p>\n

Scott then teased: \u2018He always wants a cuddle,\u2019 with Lucy responding: \u2018I mean, that is annoying.\u2019<\/p>\n

The home was reportedly purchased by Adam before Lucy had a chance to view the property \u2013 it\u2019s lucky she ended up falling in love with the place eventually.<\/p>\n

Over the years\u00a0Lucy gave a glimpse into the exhaustive and extensive work done on the stairs as she posted a photo of her taking a quick power nap while sat up.<\/p>\n

The jaw-dropping property features stunning orange and cream tiled floors throughout the entrance, with a chic black runner draped over the stairs.<\/p>\n

The pair have completely transformed their kitchen which features oak wood flooring and marble worktops.<\/p>\n

Alongside the very modern appliances, the couple have added a rattan light fitting and a retro radio<\/a>. Not to mention, the space also has a breakfast bar and envious floor-to-ceiling wine fridge.<\/p>\n

Lucy is clearly a fan of interiors<\/a> and has added plenty of chic neutral touches throughout the property, as well as a number of plants<\/a> and framed artwork. She also opted to keep the stunning stained glass windows but gave the rest of the space a modern makeover.<\/p>\n

The couple, who are proud parents to son Roman, five, and Lilah, three, as well as Ryan\u2019s daughter Scarlett, 16, who he shares with ex Tina O\u2019Brien, have plenty for the kids to enjoy throughout the home too.<\/p>\n

The garden provided a huge space for Lilah\u2019s first birthday party where they installed a massive soft play area laid out on the grass.<\/p>\n

The renovation was clearly a big turning point for Lucy, who was caught in a flood of tears as she boxed up her former family home.<\/p>\n

Sharing a heartfelt video, she admitted: \u2018One of the most emotional weeks of my life. I really didn\u2019t expect to get so emotional, but I moved out of my home of 11 years this week.<\/p>\n

\u2018That\u2019s how we spent our half-term \u2013 actually the kids had the best time. We had mixed emotions because we outgrew this house so long ago, we\u2019ve made the big move to Manchester and we\u2019re really happy. But there are so many memories I have hung on to in this house.\u2019<\/p>\n

Opening up further, she added: \u2018I went from being single, it was my first big renovation project, it was my first real home since moving out of my parents. I brought both my babies back from hospital here and honestly there\u2019s something about that, that I could never get rid of this house. So we just made it work over the years, but it definitely wasn\u2019t big enough, we didn\u2019t have enough bedrooms, enough storage. <\/p>\n

\u2018Seeing the rooms empty is just the bit that made me cry.\u2019<\/p>\n

Ryan and Lucy announced their engagement back in 2019 after a very romantic Amalfi Coast proposal.<\/p>\n

The pair met during their appearance on Celebrity Island With Bear Grylls in 2017.<\/p>\n
