Vanessa Feltz's cheating ex-fiancé has publicly reached out to her on her birthday in a bid to woo her back.
Ben Ofoedu has confessed how devastated he is to have hurt her after he was dumped by Vanessa when she discovered he'd been having an affair with another woman.
Vanessa called time on the 16 year relationship in January after discovering that her long-term love had cheated with several different women over a period of two decades.
The Phats & Small singer appears to have made an effort to show he still has feelings for her with his post today.
Remorseful Ben, 50, uploaded a picture of an extravagant cake to his Instagram story with 'happy birthday' written around the base.
Newly single Vanessa turned 61 today.
She opened up about spending her birthday as a single woman today following her heart-breaking split earlier today.
The This Morning agony aunt said she feels 'battered and bruised' following the life-changing break-up and believed she was 'born and bred to be married'.
The TV personality found out about Ben's infidelity on Christmas Day, which put an abrupt end to their engagement.
As Vanessa continues to navigate her way through her heartbreak, the much-loved TV star has revealed that she is still optimistic about the future and finding love again despite the fact she feels 'battered and bruised' over Ben's betrayal.
"I am curious about who and what the future will bring," she penned in her Express column.
Vanessa told fans she's putting her 'best foot forward in the time-honoured position' as she looks ahead to a bright year, leaving the past behind her.
It comes after Vanessa's daughter revealed that she was sent messages claiming that her mum's fiance, Ben, was cheating on her on Christmas Day.
The family were opening presents and having 'a lovely time' when messages revealing Ben’s betrayal were sent to Vanessa’s daughter Allegra via Instagram, she has said.
