Helen Skelton's ex husband posted a message on Instagram before deleting his profile. Rugby league star Richie Myler shares three children with the TV presenter and their break up became a hot topic as she took part in Strictly Come Dancing.
The 32 year old said he had received abusive messages, Chronicle Live reports. The Leeds Rhinos player said in his message: "I’ve decided to put my profile private from now on. If you are on here to share my photos or stories of me and my life maliciously to other people or waste your time sending me abusive messages please just unfollow me.
"I'm going to start removing people from my account one by one, so if you are a genuine rugby fan and I accidentally remove you, I apologise in advance and will accept you back! Thank you Richie."
