It just reminds me too much of my own divorce. I dont know, the idea that you can you just roll the same show out in a year, it just seems wrong.

Normally I think this kind of this is ridiculous but I hear you. Personally I found the series he was on very uncomfortable viewing as he was clearly in the grip of addictions. But he's a massive, massive money spinner and family entertainer so his public image will be salvaged.
It's all bit grubby for me, fucking up his own life and his wife's is one thing, potentially fucking up other people's getting behind the wheel of a car off his head is another. It's not him who's been forced to seek out 'career options' on the other side of the pond is it. As viewers we can tune in or out and I'll be tuning out.

You feel sorry for a women don’t know. At the end of the day something wasn’t right between them and he ended it.
At least he ended it instead of having a dirty affair..I have a lot of respect for Ant he’s had a shit time.

I get where you're coming from OP. He's done a number of things that the average person would be vilified for - drink driving in particular is a despicable action even if you get away without killing/injuring someone, and especially so for someone as rich as Ant who had numerous options other than driving open to him. Yet apparently he gets to sail on with his life having 'paid his dues' and ditched the wife who was with him through all the difficult times, because 'moving on' is healthy and we're all supposed to do it and not look back or mourn. Not that easy in practice. And the numerous threads on here cheering on people who 'move on' apparently within days of being dumped, and suggesting that anyone who can't get to this point so quickly is showing 'low self esteem' and somehow letting the side down, don't help.

@Wintersunglasse at the end of the day its his first indescretation.Its not like hes had numerous chances.And he did finish with Lisa before the drink driving.

and ditched the wife who was with him through all the difficult times

If the comments below about her having bottles of wine when he came it of rehab, it doesn’t sound like she was “with him” at all.

At the end of the day, we have no idea what went on in the marriage and who was at fault.
