Sheridan Smith's last relationship started on Twitter, so it was only fitting that she announced her new single status on the social networking site too. The Cilla star, who was recently dating The Enemy rocker Andy Hopkins, revealed she was single at the weekend in a series of since deleted tweets.
"Single!!!! :))) bring on funny girl, who's coming?! Can't wait xxx," she tweeted, referencing her upcoming role in the stage show Funny Girl.
When a follower asked her if she really was single, she replied: "I sure am :) bye boys!! X"

Sheridan had recently been linked to bassist Andy after asking him out on Twitter. A source told The Sun that the pair had chemistry "straight away" and had a shared passion for their respective careers.
While it is not clear what caused the split, Sheridan does not appear too heartbroken judging by her social media pages, and has since started following her ex-boyfriend Greg Wood again – prompting speculation that a reconciliation could be on the cards.
The 34-year-old dated the Hollyoaks actor earlier this year, but ended their relationship in July, telling fans that she had been "hurt by an idiot boy again". The pair had also struck up a bond on Twitter, and showed that they had got serious quickly by getting matching tattoos in March.

The duo designed their own "All in" pair of aces, which Sheridan had inked on her ribs and Greg on his upper arm. Sheridan also had the words "Gregory's Girl" written above the inking, while Greg opted for the words "My Sheri Amour".
Although Sheridan and Greg's relationship ended badly , they appear to be taking steps to make up, with the actor tweeting to congratulate his former girlfriend for her International Emmy nomination on Wednesday.
"@Sheridansmith1 congratulations to my darlin on your international EMMY nomination," Greg wrote. "Fantastic news and thoroughly deserved sweetheart :)) xxx."
