Denise Van Outen 's ex-fiancé Eddie Boxshall has finally broken his silence on their shock split, revealing that the former power couple haven't spoken a word to each other since going their separate ways back in March.
Celebrity Gogglebox star Denise, 48, announced her shock split from her Eddie almost nine months ago now after the pair spent seven blissful years together.
At the time, Denise shared her heartache after discovering that her husband-to-be was sending explicit messages to other women behind her back, and after the devastating discovery, Denise insisted that her self-worth and self-respect was much more valuable to her than trying to make things work with Eddie.
While Denise has been incredibly vocal about her heartache, Eddie has appeared to remain tight-lipped - until now.
The DJ, 49, has opened up about his unexpected split with Denise after sharing his apologies and regrets for sexting other women behind Denise's back.
Despite their bitter fallout and split, Eddie still wishes Denise well and has been focusing on his own health and mental wellbeing since their break-up back in March.
"You know any break-up's hard, for whatever reason, and it makes it worse, you know, certain things get printed in the press. And there's two sides to every story," Eddie told The Sun.
Since their break-up, Denise has found love again with Jimmy Barba, and Eddie seemingly couldn't be happier for his ex-fiancée.
"There is no animosity. Life goes on, The world carries on going round. She's happy. I'm really happy she's moved on. And I wish all the love and luck in the world. I'm still yet to start dating. I'm looking at career wise first. Once I'm ready to move on, I'll move on."
Eddie's comments come after Denise recently said that she had 'too much self respect' to stay with her ex-fiancé after she discovered he had been messaging other woman in January.
The presenter said she was 'heartbroken' after finding out Eddie, 49, had messages and pictures from other women on his iPad last November.
Denise said she felt they couldn't salvage their relationship following the betrayal.
"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," she told OK! Magazine.
"I believe everything happens for a reason, so I don’t really have any regrets at all, it just shapes you for the next part of your life. "If anything, I wish I’d known how to get myself out of heartbreak a little bit more, it’s a horrible thing to be stuck in it, and I think when I was younger I didn’t do the right things."
Denise and Eddie started dating back in 2014 and soon went on to become a power couple, appearing on Gogglebox a number times, and fast-becoming a huge hit with viewers of the Channel 4 reality programme.
