Another commented: “I’m sorry for your loss.” And a further follower wrote: “Run free sweetheart.”
Daniel and Stephen revealed in April that they planned to divorce after six years of marriage, reports the Mirror. Daniel told The Sun on Sunday at the time – saying: “It’s with much sadness Daniel and I have decided to divorce. There is, and always will be, a lot of love there but we’ve unfortunately grown apart and made the decision to part ways.”
He added: “We’ve made the decision with a very heavy heart to confirm our marriage has come to an end. I’m sure we will forever be friends.” While the news was a shock to fans, the couple were later praised for continuing to care for their pets together.
