Ex: Christina filed for divorce from Ant, 41, in November. They co-parent son Hudson, 16 months
The 41-year-old British host revealed in October he had dropped around ’23lbs’.
‘Don’t worry I will get it back on,’ he told fans, adding a bicep and a pig emoji.
Christina announced in September that she had split from Ant after less than two years of marriage.
Before filing for divorce in November she reflected on her new direction in life.
‘I never thought I would have one divorce let alone two. I never thought I would have 2 baby daddies – but sometimes life throws us curve balls,’ she wrote.
‘Instead of getting stuck in these ‘setbacks’ I choose to look at these challenges as opportunities to grow.
‘So while some may judge me and throw around rumors about me, most of you support me. And that says a lot about this world and where we are headed. I’m messy, I’m real and I’m working on healing.’
