Vernon Kay has proven that there’s no bad blood between him and ex-wife Tess Daly, as he was spotted wearing his wedding ring weeks after their amicable split. The former Strictly star and Radio 2 DJ announced the end of their 22-year marriage earlier this month, yet the pair appear to have retained a strong friendship.
The 52-year-old was seen at Wembley Stadium cheering on Bolton Wanderers during the League One play-off final, his wedding band catching fans’ attention as he chatted on Sky Sports News. Just last week, Vernon and Tess enjoyed drinks together at Pub in the Park, snapping selfies with fans and showing a united front despite their separation.
Tess, 57, has also been sporting her wedding ring and continues to share glimpses of her life with fans on Instagram. She captioned one post: “The glam before the go,” highlighting her ongoing style and poise.
The couple, who married in 2003 and share daughters Phoebe, 21, and Amber, 16, first met while working as up-and-coming TV presenters at a BBC Christmas party in 2001. Their enduring friendship after the split has reassured fans that the duo are handling the separation with maturity and grace.
Despite the headlines and speculation, Vernon and Tess remain committed to family, friendship, and showing that love and respect can endure beyond marriage.
