Gogglebox star Stephen Webb and his estranged husband, Daniel Lustig-webb, have been left devastated over the death of their beloved dog.
The couple - who were married in 2018 and announced their shock split earlier this year - are the loving owners of a number fluffy dogs. While the boys are no longer a couple, and as they wait for their divorce to be finalised, they have kept their pets close and been praised for continuing to care for them together.
On Sunday, the pair shared a heartbreaking update to reveal that one of their dogs had died. Taking to Instagram, the Gogglebox stars co-published a tribute to their pet, but did not reveal a cause of death. They shared a windswept snap of the dog wearing a bright orange collar.
In an accompanying caption, they wrote: "Today we said goodbye to the kindest little girl, our princess RIP @lustig75." The statement was met with a wall of support from fans. One wrote: "Sending you the biggest love the paw print they leave on our hearts stay forever." Another typed: "I'm sorry for your loss." And a further follower wrote: "Run free sweetheart."
