Alongside a photo of the pair pulling a funny face at each other while out on a country walk, he wrote: “Mooch and I have parted ways after 5 years of love.

“We still have a lot of respect for each other, and still hold a strong friendship and always will.”

Regan also shared a selfie picture of herself and Romeo posing together as she confirmed the split on her Instagram page.

“This is Ro, we have grown up with each other since we were 16!!”, she wrote.
