Just weeks after announcing the end of their 22-year marriage, Tess Daly and Vernon Kay have given fans a surprising glimpse into the relationship they still share behind the headlines.
The former TV power couple shocked fans in May when they confirmed they had decided to separate after more than two decades together. Yet despite going their separate ways, recent social media activity suggests their bond remains far from hostile.
In fact, Vernon has now publicly shown his support for Tess as she embarks on an exciting new chapter of her career.
The Strictly Come Dancing favourite recently swapped the UK for the sunshine of Greece, travelling to the stunning island of Lefkada to work on the latest collection for her swimwear and lifestyle brand, Naia Beach.
Sharing a series of glamorous behind-the-scenes snaps from the trip, Tess gave followers a glimpse of her busy schedule, revealing that her team had packed multiple suitcases full of new designs while preparing to shoot the brand’s upcoming collection.
But it wasn’t the photos that caught fans’ attention.
It was Vernon’s response.
The BBC Radio 2 presenter quickly appeared in the comments section with an enthusiastic message praising Tess and her business success.
“Absolutely rocking!!!” he wrote, encouraging followers to embrace the Naia Beach lifestyle and showing that, despite their separation, he remains firmly in her corner.
The public show of support sparked a wave of reactions from fans, many noting how refreshing it was to see the former couple continuing to champion one another after such a significant life change.
The supportive message comes shortly after another family-focused reunion made headlines.
Earlier this month, Tess travelled to New York to spend time with the couple’s eldest daughter, Phoebe, who relocated to the city earlier this year.
The mother-daughter getaway offered a glimpse of happier moments as they explored Manhattan, enjoyed rooftop views and spent quality time together away from the spotlight.
Once again, Vernon was quick to show his appreciation online, commenting warmly on the photos and celebrating the special family memories being created.
The gestures have reinforced the message both stars shared when they announced their split.
At the time, Tess and Vernon described the decision as amicable and emphasised their commitment to remaining supportive parents and close friends.
Those words appear to be ringing true.
While many celebrity separations become dominated by public disputes and speculation, Tess and Vernon have continued to present a united front when it comes to family milestones, career achievements and supporting their daughters.
For fans who followed their relationship for more than two decades, the recent interactions have offered reassurance that respect and affection still remain between them.
As Tess focuses on growing her business empire and Vernon continues his successful broadcasting career, both appear determined to embrace the next stage of life while keeping family at the centre of everything.
And judging by Vernon’s latest message, some connections don’t simply disappear when a chapter ends — they evolve into something different.
