Warwick Davis' daughter pictured with boyfriend following family heartbreak
The actress, who is the daughter of Warwick Davis, has been with Charlie since 2021.
Posting to Instagram, the Dumping Ground actress, 28, shared the sweet picture of her and Charlie sitting together.
Annabelle looked pretty in a pink floral dress, beige heels and a timeless Louis Vuitton purse, while Charlie wore a classic navy suit as they gazed into each other's eyes.
Though the pair largely keep their relationship private, speaking to Sunbox Campers, Annabelle revealed they love to go caravanning. "Growing up my parents and I were away all the time camping and caravanning all the time…
"Having grown up with that, it's made me want to go travelling myself."
Warwick Davis' new love after heartbreak
After the devastating loss of his wife, Samantha Davis, in 2024, Warwick revealed at the BAFTAs that a mystery woman had helped him find love again.
The Harry Potter star was honoured with the BAFTA Fellowship earlier this year. He was tearful as he thanked his loved ones for their support throughout his career, including his "wonderful" late wife Samantha, his two children – Annabelle and Harrison – and someone he affectionately nicknamed "Sponge".
Hinting at a potential new relationship, Warwick got particularly choked up as he said: "Special mention, too, should go to Sponge, you know who you are. Thank you for showing me that life can still have meaning, and for helping me to laugh and to love again."
Though he's keeping Sponge's identity a mystery, he did reveal on the Jonathan Ross Show that his new girlfriend reminds him of Daisy May Cooper's character Kerry Mucklowe in BBC mockumentary series This Country.
Warwick's late wife
Warwick faced immense heartbreak when his wife, Samantha, died aged 53 in March 2024.
Confirming the sad news, the Willow star released an official statement on his wife of 23 years, which said: "My wife and soul-mate, best friend. Devoted mother, My favourite human. My most trusted confidant and an ardent supporter of everything I did in my career, has passed.
"The most open, warm person I have ever known. Her passing has left a huge hole in our lives as a family. I miss her hugs. She was a unique character, always seeing the sunny side of life. She had a wicked sense of humour and always laughed at my bad jokes.
Samantha and Warwick's two children, Harrison, 21, and Annabelle, 28, joined their dad in the tribute after losing their mum.
"Mum is our best friend and we're honoured to have received a love like hers. Her love and happiness carried us through our whole lives."
Before Samantha's passing, the family of four were often spotted together at events and film premieres and it was clear that they all had an extremely close relationship.

Saturday's Lotto jackpot estimated at £7.3m after no ticket wins top prize
Saturday's lottery jackpot will be an estimated £7.3 million after no players won Wednesday's top prize. The winning Lotto numbers were 17, 31, 47, 05, 58 and 09, while the bonus number was 35. No players matched all six main numbers, meaning the jackpot was missed, while no ticket-holders won £1 million by matching five of the six numbers plus the bonus ball. Set of balls L3 and draw machine Lotto3 were used in the first Lotto draw since the National Lottery paused over the weekend to enable the biggest technology upgrade in the game's 31-year history.

Who's America's Favorite Couple? A Baltimore pair is in the running.
Couples all over the country, including a Baltimore pair, are vying for the title of "America's Favorite Couple." It's an online contest where the winning couple not only wins $20,000, but also will be featured in an in-print advertorial in Variety magazine. Devon Ojeda and Caius Willingham said their entry in the competition is about showing what being American truly is. Ojeda and Willingham first met as coworkers, but as they got to know each other better, they realized their working relationship should be something more. Ojeda described it as love at first sight. "We tried to deny it for a long time because we were colleagues, but it got to a point that you can't ignore the feelings," Willingham said. What got them to start thinking about dating, though, is when the two matched on eHarmony. "That was enough for Caius to break the ice," Ojeda said. After dating for a few years, the two eloped in New York City in May. Ever since then, Ojeda's been wanting to make their love known. "I just wanted to scream it out in the mountains, saying I have the best marriage ever. I had the most perfect day," Ojeda said. So, when Ojeda saw an ad for "America's Favorite Couple" contest, he applied, and the couple was accepted. The contest is put on by the fundraising platform Colossal. The contest is currently in its group finals stage, with three more rounds to go. At this point, Ojeda and Willingham have already made it through several rounds of voting. "We're hoping it influences people to create more joy for themselves. Right now, it's really important to be in community with people," Ojeda said. Ojeda and Willingham are transgender. Ojeda is also a naturalized citizen. For them, being in this contest is about showing they do represent what being an American is -- especially in light of President Trump's target on the transgender community and heightened immigration enforcement. "The most radical thing, the most radical act you can do right now is to be bold and be loud with your love," Ojeda said. But, most importantly, they want to show how love comes in every identity. "It's not just like a man and woman. A marriage can be anybody, and that's the American dream," Ojeda said. "We want a world where it doesn't matter who you are, love is still love." The latest round of voting ends Thursday at 10 p.m. You can vote for Ojeda and Willingham here. You can vote once for free every 24 hours, but you can also add more votes if you donate.

Rare copy of The Hobbit sells for 'record-breaking' sum
An "astonishingly rare" first edition of The Hobbit has sold for a "record-breaking" £43,000 at auction. The copy of JRR Tolkien's novel is one of only 1,500 copies that were printed in 1937. It was discovered without a dustcover on a bookcase during a home clearance in Bristol. It was sold to a private collector in the UK through an online auction at Auctioneum in Bath, Somerset, earlier. Caitlin Riley, the book specialist from the auction house, said: "It's the quintessential auction story. Everyone dreams of finding a rare item hidden in plain sight, and here we are." More news stories for Somerset Listen to the latest news for Somerset The book, which was only expected to fetch between £10,000-£12,000 at auction, attracted hundreds of bidders from all over the world. Ms Riley said the book is in "absolutely beautiful condition" and she believed it sold for a record price for a first edition without a dustcover. "House clearances can be tricky, stressful and troublesome... this could have so easily been sent to landfill, or disposed of by someone who didn't realise it was there," she added. The book came from the family library of Hubert Priestley who was a famous botanist in the 1930s and brother to the Antarctic explorer and geologist, Sir Raymond Edward Priestley. Priestley had strong connections to the University of Oxford where Tolkien stood as Rawlinson and Bosworth Professor of Anglo-Saxon and a Fellow of Pembroke College. Both men knew fellow author C.S. Lewis and it is likely that they knew each other. "It's the connection to Tolkien and the important provenance that makes this book so special. It's not just any first edition; it belonged to someone who very likely called Tolkien an acquaintance," Ms Riley said. She added it was astonishingly rare to find a first edition in such good condition. "Being a children's book, most of them have seen children's hands, children's colouring pens in some cases, so to have one that appears to be completely unread and never enjoyed is really, really astonishingly rare," she said. The Hobbit is one of the most successful children's novels, with more than 100 million copies sold. The story is set in the fantasy world Middle-earth and follows the hobbit Bilbo Baggins on a quest to find treasure. The rare edition that was sold also includes rare drawings by Tolkien himself.
