Richardson and Beaumont announced their decision to divorce in April after nine years of marriage in a move that surprised their fans.
He is also a talented multi-instrumentalist, being self-taught on guitar, piano and bass.
The nature of their relationship is unknown.
MailOnline has contacted Beaumont representatives for comment.
Richardson and Beaumont announced their decision to divorce in April after nine years of marriage in a move that surprised their fans.
They share a daughter and married in April 2015, after they began dating in 2013.
Beaumont and Richardson met through their friend Roisin Conaty and worked together on several shows, including Meet The Richardsons.
But in a joint statement in April they said: “After 9 years of marriage, we would like to announce that we have separated.” We have jointly and amicably made the difficult decision to divorce and go our separate ways.’
Richardson handed over £1.625 million to Beaumont when they ended their nine-year marriage.
And since then, the comedian opened up about their split in an interview with OK! Magazine.
She cut a casual figure at the outing in a striped T-shirt and a mini skirt which she paired with a long jacket and boots.
Following her was Wallace, who proved to be the perfect gentleman as he carried her suitcase and bags.
The couple looked low-key as they left the theater together after their show.
Wallace stayed close to his rumored new love as they hung out after the comedy gig.
Wallace is pictured with Richardson, who he has worked with in the past.
She told the publication: “People might think I should talk about it because we were so public and everyone knew us as a couple, but I won’t, and not because there’s any animosity.”
“We both agreed that while it might be strange for other people not to hear about it, we wouldn’t talk about anything that had to do with the marriage or each other.”
She added of a recent new approach to life now that she’s in her forties: “I don’t really feel any different, just a little bit angrier and not willing to take anything from anyone.”
It comes after Beaumont said she sometimes worries she ‘made a mistake’ by marrying Jon while criticizing his stubbornness in an unearthed clip.
A resurfaced video shows her sharing her marital worries on Richardson’s Ultimate Worrier show, where he brings in guests to help discuss her many concerns.
When asked if Beaumont had any concerns about her ex-husband, she responded, “I have a lot.” Sometimes I worry that I’ve made a mistake.
She went on to describe how Richardson can’t admit when she’s wrong or has made a mistake, something she said can be difficult for a marriage.
“One thing I think is really difficult in a marriage is when the other person can’t admit that they’re wrong,” she continued. “I can’t apologize for making a mistake.”
Lucy and Jon announced their decision to divorce in April after nine years of marriage in a move that surprised their fans.
Jon gave £1.625 million to Lucy when they ended their nine-year marriage.
The former couple was joined in the episode by Jonathan Ross, who chimed in to say: “It’s crucial that there’s no way a relationship can survive that.”
“You can’t judge me for that until I make a mistake,” he responded, as the audience began to laugh. “It’s not fair.”
To prove his point, Beaumont added, “And he honestly thinks I’m the one who’s flawed and that you never make a mistake.” I have an example and it’s actually not a very nice story to tell.’
He began to tell a story about their honeymoon where they rented a car and drove around the United States, while Jon looked at the map and decided to book a hotel in Santa Cruz.
“Then I looked at Santa Cruz and it has the worst homicide rate in the entire United States,” he said. ‘Worse than Los Angeles, like the most dangerous place to be. I told Jon this and he said, “Well, I’ve booked it now.”
“So we went to a falafel bar and sat in the window, looking out to sea and I thought, this is starting to come a little later, things are changing a little, and then you wouldn’t eat any of that.
‘Anyway a gang showed up and one of them got stabbed in the chest, and I looked at Jon and he remained impassive. Like I was looking at two pigeons fighting and I was in shock.’
He added: “I said, ‘Oh, I can’t eat this,’ so Jon ate my falafel too and I said, ‘Don’t you mind?'”
It comes after Beaumont said she sometimes worries she ‘made a mistake’ by marrying Jon while criticizing his stubbornness in an unearthed clip.
“And all because he didn’t want to admit that we are in a dangerous place.”
In another old clip shared recently, Beaumont jokingly said he didn’t think his marriage to Richardson would last a lifetime, two years before they announced their split.
In a clip unearthed from 8 in 10 Cats Countdown to 2022, Beaumont shared her candid view on her marriage, prompting Richardson, also 41, to ask: “Are they breaking up?”
In footage from the show, host Jimmy Carr asked him: “What made you decide to settle?”
To which the comedian responded: ‘I won’t see this for life, isn’t there a Just Passing Through song? A season, a reason or a whole life.’
