Gogglebox’s Stephen and Daniel Lustig-Webb spotted without their wedding rings after announcing shock split and divorce
GOGGLEBOX stars Stephen and Daniel Lustig-Webb have been spotted without their wedding rings after announcing their shock split and divorce.
The former couple last week shared a statement with The Sun confirming they had ended their six year marriage.
Stephen, 52, shot to fame on the first series of Gogglebox with his ex-boyfriend Chris Ashby-Steed who quit the show amid feuding.
Stephen went on to film with his late mum, Pat, and then Daniel joined him on the famous sofa.
The pair then stunned viewers when they announced their departure from the show, ahead of Stephen being signed up to star in to Dancing on Ice.
But he later suffered a career and health blow when he was forced to pull out of the skating competition after breaking an ankle.
Today, the star appeared to be physically on form again as he walked the dogs near his Sussex home, wearing shorts and a body-warmer jacket.
Daniel, 43, was also seen near his salon, and both stars were spotted without their wedding band.
Over the weekend they returned to social media for the first time since announcing their split.
The duo shared a video of themselves riding a tandem bike and made light of the break-up.
It comes after hairdresser Daniel was spotted following an Instagram account with racy naked and semi clothed male models.
In their statement to The Sun Stephen said: “It’s with much sadness Daniel and I have decided to divorce.
“There is, and always will be, a lot of love there but we’ve unfortunately grown apart and made the decision to part ways.”
Daniel added: “We’ve made the decision with a very heavy heart to confirm our marriage has come to an end.
“I’m sure we will forever be friends.”
Last month the Gogglebox community was rocked when former star George Gilbey died aged 40 following an accident at work in Southend-on-sea.
Gogglebox stars Stephen and Daniel's relationship timeline
Hairdressing duo Stephen Webb and Daniel Lustig got engaged back in 2016 and married two years later.
The couple co-own a hair salon and live in a £575,000 property on Brighton’s sought after seafront.
At the time of the engagement, Stephen appeared on Gogglebox alongside his ex-boyfriend Chris Ashby-Steed.
In 2019, Daniel made his Gogglebox debut and was immediately a big hit.
Chris, who is now in a happy relationship with husband Tony, spoke publicly about how the show affected his mental health.
Having relocated to Wales and quit showbiz, Chris said he was racked with anxiety during his time on the programme.
Just last year Daniel and Stephen shocked Gogglebox fans when they announced they were leaving the programme. Daniel had been part of the show since its launch in 2013.
Their departure opened up a new world of opportunity for the duo and it was soon announced that Stephen would take part in Dancing on Ice. But disaster struck and injury ruled him out before the live shows.
There were further gasps of shock in April when we revealed the pair had split up. They vowed to remain friends and looked to be true to their word, sharing a smiley picture the following day with Stephen’s mum on the seafront.
