Ben Ofoedu has admitted he now 'understands' suicidal thoughts following the breakdown of his 16-year relationship. The Phats & Small singer, 50, was engaged to TV star Vanessa Feltz but the pair split earlier this year after Ben admitted to cheating.
Ben has now said he was left 'heartbroken' after the break-up and 'spiralled out of control' after receiving abuse from fans over his infidelity. However the singer has now revealed that he is now focusing on his new theatre show Tony and Tina's Wedding, which he says 'saved his life'.
Vanessa was left heartbroken after finding out that Ben had been having an affair while he was away from home starring in pantomime. His ‘other woman’ messaged the former Celebrity Big Brother star's daughter Allegra, picking Christmas Day to reveal the infidelity, reports The Mirror.
