Earlier this month, it was reported Ant had started dating the personal assistant, who is also a mother-of-two.
A source told The Sun she had been “his rock” throughout his rehab battle and court case following a drink-driving incident in March.
Anne-Marie was captured supporting Ant at Wimbledon Magistrates' Court in April, where he was charged £86,000 and given a driving ban for 20 months.
Since the news of their reported relationship emerged, Lisa, 41, has been inundated with sympathetic messages from many of her 128,000 followers.
The make-up artist replied to many posts, in which she claimed her and Anne-Marie used to be friends.

An insider also told the The Sun that Lisa sacked Anne-Marie and claimed the pair didn’t get on.
They revealed: “She hated working for Lisa and they didn’t get on well at all. They often clashed.
“In the end Lisa sacked her. That’s hardly the actions of someone’s best mate.”
They added that Anne-Marie is “angry” at the way Lisa is portraying her.
"Anne-Marie’s biting her tongue, but she’s hurt and angry by the way this is playing out from Lisa’s end.”
