Helen Skelton's ex husband Richie Myler has shared a cosied up snap of him and his pregnant girlfriend.
Richie Myler began dating Stephanie Thirkill quickly after his split from Helen, with whom he has three children. He is now expecting his first child with the daughter of Leeds Rhinos President, Andrew Thirkill.
After giving birth to Elsie in December 2021, Helen and Richie went their separate ways just four months later. Helen, who presents Countryfile, shares Ernie, seven, Louis, five, and baby Elsie, one, with her ex Richie. Helen announced the break-up in a statement telling fans she was "very sad", Mirror Online reports.

On Monday evening, Richie took to his Instagram page to share a professional photograph of the two holding on to each other. In the black-and-white photo, Stephanie placed her hands on his face while he placed his hands on her waist.
He had his eyes closed as the two beamed at each other. Richie simply captioned the post with a red heart emoji. Hundreds rushed to the comments to applaud the couple.
"Beautiful photo," one user said along with heart-eye emojis, while one person posted: "Amazing." Back in January, Richie briefly deleted his Instagram account.
He previously used his page to post about his achievements with the Leeds Rhinos as well as updates on his life with his girlfriend Stephanie. Back in September, Richie shared a photo with Stephanie and her parents as he gushed about finishing his latest rugby season "as a family".
In October, Richie told followers he had received "abusive messages" in a defiant post. Explaining his decision, Richie penned: "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."
He added: "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." He later deleted his entire profile on the photo and video-sharing site, but has recently re-joined Instagram.
