Denise Van Outen’s ex Eddie Boxshall has said that he is “deeply sorry” following on from their heartbreaking split earlier this year.
The 49-year-old former Gogglebox star, who has now been replaced on the show, has spoken out for the first time since splitting from Denise, 47.
After being together for seven years, Denise found out that Eddie had sent more than 20 messages and photos from his iPad to other women – behind her back.
Following Denise finding out about Eddie’s antics, she threw him out and said that she no longer wanted him in her life.
Now speaking to The Sun, Eddie has recalled the day, saying: “As I left, I knew it was going to be the last time I would ever see her. I was absolutely gutted.

“I hurt Denise, I broke her trust and I’m deeply sorry…I deeply regret that I sent those messages.”
Later on, in the interview he continued: “I’ve sent her untold messages on text, on email, saying that I love her and that I’m sorry for what I’ve done – that I’m embarrassed and I’m ashamed.”
Denise and Eddie started dating back in 2014 and soon went on to become a power couple, appearing on Gogglebox a number of times.

The loved-up pair fast became a huge hit with viewers of the Channel 4 reality programme.
It was earlier this year on January 7, 2022, that the news of the couple’s split broke, with Denise confirming the break up on social media.
She did so by sharing a sombre black and white snap of herself walking her dogs on the beach.

Alongside the snap, Denise penned: “Over the past couple of months, there has been much speculation regarding my relationship with Eddie.
“It saddens me to confirm that we are no longer a couple. I had to make the difficult decision not to continue in our relationship.
“I will always treasure the good times we spent together, and the memories made.
“We ask that you please respect our privacy at this time, especially for our children.”

More recently, Denise spoke out about the ordeal where she detailed the hurt she felt.
Back in March, she said: “I’ve got too much self-respect and I just can’t live like that, I felt like, in a few selfish moments, he’d ruined it.
“I couldn’t imagine it ever feeling the same,” when she opened up to OK! Magazine.
