Ant McPartlin’s ex Lisa Armstrong wins fight to build pool and gym at £3.8m mansion after feud with her neighbours

LISA Armstrong has won planning permission for a pool, gym and summer house at her luxury West London mansion.

The 45-year-old star’s application to the council was approved this week despite furious complaints from neighbours.


According to the council planning officer’s report, they received four responses from neighbours with various complaints.

These were ‘increased risk of flooding’, ‘harm to biodiversity of the conservation area’, ‘loss of privacy, decreased outlook and light pollution’, ’scale and massing of outbuildings would not be sympathetic to character of conservation area’.

Despite the objection, the Strictly make-up artist got the green light for two planning applications and two certificates of lawful development.
