Ant Anstead shows off weight loss following marital split from Christina … but teases he’ll pack the pounds on again

Ant Anstead took to Instagram on Monday to show off his weight loss in the wake of his split from Christina Anstead.

The 41-year-old TV personality, who shares son Hudson, one, with the Flip Or Flop beauty, 37, responded to a reply from an Instagram user noticing his slimmed-down form.

The U.K. native posted a shot from the set of a project, captioning the post, ‘Apparently they call this “work”…..’ after one of his followers said he’d appeared to be ‘thinner’ than he was in the past.

The Wheeler Dealers personality responded, ‘Don’t worry I will get it back on,’ with emojis of a flexed and and a pig face.

He predicted ‘it’s going straight back on’ in response to another user’s remark, adding emojis of food.

The feedback wasn’t as positive for fake sleeve tattoos he donned on his arms while filming.

A user wrote that Anstead ‘should get real tatted sleeves,’ to which he responded, ‘I’m a little way off the mid life crisis… x.’

Christina first began seeing Ant in October of 2017, and they exchanged vows at the home they shared in Newport Beach in December of 2018.

Christina announced their separation September 18, saying, ‘Ant and I have made the difficult decision to separate. 

‘We are grateful for each other and as always, our children will remain our priority,’ she said. ‘We appreciate your support and ask for privacy for us and our family as we navigate the future.’

Ant on September 26 posted a picture of the pair, implying that the split came at Christina’s request.

‘Anyone who really knows me knows that I don’t like to share private matters publicly,’ he said. ‘I have remained silent while holding on to hope. I never gave up on us. I pray Christina’s decision brings her happiness.’

Christina shares daughter Taylor, 10, and and son Brayden, five, with ex-husband Tarek El Moussa, while Anstead is father to teen Amelie, 17, and Archie, 14, from this previous marriage to Louise Herbert.

Anstead said in an Instagram Stories last week that he dealt with the difficult split with the help of a Breakup Recovery program.

‘I am now on day 30 of this and I have to say it’s been a lifeline for me!’ he said. ‘If anyone out there needs this DO IT!’
