Matt Hancock s mistress Gina Coladangelo is stepping down from her £15,000 role at the Department of Health after footage of the pair s affair was brought to light.
Married mother-of-three Coladangelo, 43, was caught locking lips with former Health Secretary Matt Hancock, 42, in leaked CCTV footage from May 6.
Hancock had hired her as a health aide in September as a non-executive director at the Department of Health but the pair have both left in disgrace after they were seen fondling each other and breaking social-distancing rules they enforced on the British public.
Coladangelo s resignation comes just hours after Hancock announced he was stepping down from his role as Health Secretary after pressure mounted from the public and other MPs for breaking social-distancing rules that he helped to create.
