What a stupid boy. Worth 60 million and doesn’t get a taxi. I just don’t know how he’ll come back from this latest fiasco (drink drive car crash hits 3 year old).

Because you have to go outside to smoke don’t you - so that’s when they pap her, when she has to pop out for a smoke.

SouthWestmom · 24/03/2018 21:47

@NinjagoNinja I totally agree on that statement. Even if she was a total bitch why , in such a public life, make it her fault somehow and his decision. Makes it sound like poor him, no choice but to end it.

In fact I wonder if the charmed bit next door image is starting to unravel? How long til someone opens the floodgates and we hear the real Ant?

FlashTheSloth · 24/03/2018 22:04

I was going to say that about the smoking too, Ant does smoke and I think Dec does too. Lisa smoking is hardly a bloody crime ffs, she's not drowning puppies in a bag!

SouthWestmom · 24/03/2018 22:26

Bottom right

Aibu to think he’ll struggle coming back from this (Ant)
SouthWestmom · 24/03/2018 22:27

Oh, was meant to be an ant with a fag

ferriswheel · 24/03/2018 22:32

Even if she does smoke. Who cpuld blame her? And whose business is it anyway?

I hope shes alright. It must be so strange to be suffocated with information about someone you are trying to separate from.

gluteustothemaximus · 24/03/2018 22:46

Just read that Dec's wife is pregnant.

ferriswheel · 24/03/2018 22:57

Where did you hear that?

Bundlesmads · 24/03/2018 23:03

It’s everywhere. Think Sun broke story. Wonder if that’s what sent Ant of the rails? Not that that’s any excuse, Lisa’s in the same boat and she didn’t get in her car pissed up.

Seems to be false

NinjagoNinja · 24/03/2018 23:18

If that's true and they've released it to deflect attention from Ant, it's an incredibly cynical move.

These two are rapidly losing their likability.

ferriswheel · 24/03/2018 23:32

Me too Ninja

Bundlesmads · 24/03/2018 23:35

Mediamass is a spoof site. It’s true.

HelenaDove · 24/03/2018 23:39

YY Ninja agree.

Sparklingbrook · 24/03/2018 23:47

Who is to say they released it to deflect anything? it's been a week since Ant's incident.

They most likely just got backed into a corner and had to announce it as the papers were sniffing about again. They would have to announce it at some point-it's their news and up to them.

SouthWestmom · 25/03/2018 00:09

Oh I thought it was like snopes for media.

Anyway timing is convenient.

I think becoming a parent for either one of them would threaten their popularity anyway - surely their appeal is accessibility, could be your mate/ boyfriend/ mates brother etc. Marriage and hanging out as a four is one thing but I think parenthood will change their image a bit.

Maybe the beginning of the new beginning? Dec on his own?

ferriswheel · 25/03/2018 00:12

According to The Fail, Ant's uncle said that money has gone to his head.

GladAllOver · 25/03/2018 10:28

I don't know whether or not 'celebrities' (whatever that means) are entitled to a private life.
But I do think it's very sad that so many people obsess about them. Is it a way of forgetting about their own little problems in life?

peacheachpearplum · 25/03/2018 10:47

I agree with the poster who said she has given the best years of her life to him and has been dumped at a very vulnerable age. God that sounds like something from the Victorian era. Surely they have shared those years, debatable about what "the best years" are.

Sparklingbrook · 25/03/2018 11:04

News from the Fail this morning. Paul Gascoine has volunteered to partner Dec on SNT. Good grief.

Did he rock up with a fishing rod and a cooked chicken this time? Goodness me.

StealthPolarBear · 25/03/2018 11:09

Uuuuuuuuujuuuuuuuu

Yes he's just what they need to restore their squeaky clean image. Hell no doubt be doing it in his dressing gown?

I think people have mates with kids and mates whose brothers have kids 😂

Sparklingbrook · 25/03/2018 11:15

Gazza 'n' Dec doesn't have the same ring somehow.
