Gogglebox star Eddie Boxshall has broken his silence on his split from ex-fiancée Denise Van Outen in a post on Instagram.

Addressing rumours surrounding the end of their relationship, Eddie took to his social media account.

On Monday, he posted a photo of a white banner with the words "Don't Believe Everything You Read" written across it.

He simply captioned the post with a number of hashtags which read: "#dontbelieveeverythingyouread #newsarticle #chippaper #pressb******t #donttroll #bekind #youdontknowme #youdontknowthetruth" and chose to disable the comments on his post.

The couple broke up after seven years together, and during that time they appeared on Celebrity Gogglebox, often seen laughing and joking as they commented on the latest TV highlights.

Denise announced the news of the split two months after asking Eddie to move out, and shared the update on her Instagram.

She shared a black and white picture of her walking two dogs on a beach, which she captioned: "Over the past couple of months, there has been much speculation regarding my relationship with Eddie.

"It saddens me to confirm that we are no longer a couple. I had to make the difficult decision not to continue in our relationship.

"I will always treasure the good times we spent together, and the memories made."

She added: "We ask that you please respect our privacy at this time, especially for our children" followed by a heart emoji.
