CHARLOTTE Crosby has broken lockdown rules to move in with her new boyfriend Liam Beaumont, The Sun Online can reveal.

On April 24, hunky Liam posted a photo of himself grinning as he messes around with a camera in his back garden.

The following day, Charlotte - who has been dating Liam since March - shared a snap of herself in the same garden, sitting on the paved tiles that are visible in her boyfriend's post.

Liam's living room can also be seen in the background of a photo of the Geordie Shore star that In The Style shared to their social media account last month.

Although the reality TV favourite is outside in the photo, the distinctive wooden bench that Liam can be seen posing on in a snap shared earlier this week is clearly visible behind her.

The pair have also been enjoying outings together, with both Charlotte and Liam posting photos taken on a stunning green field on 26 April.

The UK government officially enforced lockdown on 23 March, with couples living apart warned at the time to move in together then or face months apart.

Lockdown rules state that people should not move between different houses, or spend time with people outside of those they live with through fear of spreading deadly coronavirus.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson explicitly said in March: "You should not be meeting friends. If your friends ask you to meet, you should say no.

"You should not be meeting family members who do not live in your home."

The only exceptions to the rule were key workers taking children to school, and separated parents sharing custody of children under 18.

Last month it was clarified that individuals can move to another home if they are at risk in their current household - for example, if they have an argument with a partner or are a victim of domestic violence.

Despite the clear government rules, Charlotte's reps insist she's not done anything wrong and say "Charlotte has acted within the clear parameters of the government lockdown guidelines."

Other celebrities to come under fire for flouting government rules include Gordon Ramsay, who enraged Cornish locals when he and his family relocated to their holiday home in Cornwall at the start of lockdown.

Earlier this week, Gemma Collins came under fire after she was accused of travelling 40 minutes to spend the night with boyfriend Arg, and The Sun Online revealed that Conor Maynard and his brother Jack had defied guidelines to attend a party.

Coronavirus was officially deemed a global pandemic in March, and has so far claimed the lives of over 30,000 people across the UK.
