The family of Helen Skelton's estranged husband have broken their silence for the first time since their split last month.
Richie Myler, who plays as a full-back or half-back for rugby league outfit Leeds Rhinos, celebrated his 32nd birthday on Saturday - the same day as Skelton, 38, returned to our television screens after a brief break from presenting following the end of their eight-year marriage.
He featured in Leeds' 24-6 victory at home to Wakefield on Friday evening during his third appearance of the season as Rohan Smith secured his first win as Rhinos head coach.
