The family of Helen Skelton's ex-husband have broken their silence for the first time since the couple split last month.
Leeds Rhinos player Richie Myler celebrated his 32nd birthday on Saturday - the same day Helen returned to our TV screens after a brief break from presenting following the end of their eight-year marriage, The Mirror reports.
Following his win on Friday evening, Richie’s sister Rachel posted a sweet birthday message on Instagram where she described him as the "best big brother" and said she's "proud of who you are".
