SH0CK: Gogglebox star Daniel Lustig-Webb makes a RETURN – Reveals he’s DΛTING other people BUT still Living with his Ex after Div0rce, Sparking Fierce debate among Viewers!

A former Gogglebox star is set to feature on Channel 4‘s First Dates – marking his first TV appearance since his ‘d3vastat1ng’ divorce from his co-star.

A favourite of viewers at home, Daniel Lustig-Webb is best known for roaring at the TV screen with his best friend and ex-husband Stephen Lustig-Webb.

But after the couple split in April last year, freshly single Daniel has appeared in the opening credits of the newest series of First Dates.

Daniel, 50, and Stephen, 54, were married for six years. Speaking on the Suddenly Single podcast, Daniel called the split ‘d3vastat1ng’ and ‘tr@umat1c’.

To make matters worse, the pair are still living under one roof, which makes dating difficult, Daniel says.

He told the Mirror that the living situation makes his love life ‘complicated’, adding: ‘If I’m going on a date, I’m a bit sheepish about it.

‘I’ll say I’m going to meet a friend but Stephen can just read me. He’ll say, “Don’t wear that.”

‘I can’t bring anyone to the house so it’s a little bit different – but we make it work.’

But reality star Daniel will soon be making a very public return to dating and relationships.

First Dates, which has been running for more than ten years, sees ordinary people head on blind dates at a restaurant run by French maitre d’hotel and host Fred Siriex.

Daniel added of his upcoming appearance: ‘I did do something to do with dating that’s coming out next year, but I can’t talk about that.’

Hairdresser Daniel is following in the footsteps of his ex Stephen, who appeared on the most recent series of Celebs Go Dating.

Also a hairdresser by trade, Stephen took part in the show with Love Island’s Chris Taylor, Corrie star Helen Flanagan, MAFS star Ella Morgan, singer Jamelia, influencer Lauryn Goodman and Made In Chelsea’s Tristan Phipps.

In January this year, Daniel revealed he and Stephen were still living together – then nine months after they announced their marriage split.

‘We’ve found a way to work together, live together and be dog dads. It’s always been about friendship.

‘As soon as we started dating, I said, ‘this guy is so different to me’ but we got on so well, even though we came from completely different backgrounds.’

Talking about their split, he added: ‘It was d3vastat1ng. For me, it was tr@umat1c and although I knew things weren’t great, I didn’t see it coming.

‘It was quite a slow process because we were completely entwined for so long, with our businesses, the dogs, we were so close in everything we did.

‘There was nothing underhand happening, no-one had slept with anyone else. Stephen was the complete opposite to me, and we’d say opposites attracted, but fundamentally, that was our problem in the end.’

Confirming he was back on the market, Daniel said: ‘Once I got over the shock, in the summer I was going on date after date with all these different types of people, I was on apps all the time, and now I realise I was trying to fill a void.

‘Friends took me aside to ask if I was okay. Now I’m happy being single. I love going on dates but I don’t need a long-term relationship, I need to repair myself a little and learn who I am again.

‘The first guy I dated (after Stephen), I went on about six dates with him in London. He was very nice, he knew my situation and it was teenage dating, n0thing s3xual at all, we’d go somewhere really nice and have a sn0g in the end.

‘He did end it, I think he realised I wasn’t in the right frame of mind.’

Stephen an Daniel are still on good terms, with the pair both running their hair salon together.

At the time of their split, Daniel said: ‘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.’
