Caroline Flack's boyfriend Lewis Burton has broken his silence after he had to spend Christmas Day away from her.
He took to his Instagram stories to say he was "gutted" that they were apart and said he'd asked for bail conditions to be lifted so they could be together after she was charged with assaulting him.
The former Love Island host, 40, pleaded not guilty to assault by beating at Highbury Corner Magistrates' Court this week, with Lewis, 27, choosing to stand by her.
Lewis wrote today: "Gutted I can't spend Christmas with you, I want to repeat I never pressed charges and asked the other day for the bail conditions to be dropped by no one listened to me.
"I want all this to be over."
He wrote the caption over a picture of Caroline at a fun fair cuddling soft toys.
She is not allowed to spend Christmas with her boyfriend because the judge has ordered the couple to refrain from contact after she was arrested for allegedly assaulting him.
Caroline was released on conditional bail before her trial on 4 March, which is expected to last a day and a half.
Last night she had taken to her own Instagram saying she'd been told to stay away from social media.
She posted a photo of herself beaming alongside a defiant caption in which she explained she is only a 'human being' and insisted she isn't going to be 'silenced'.
Caroline wrote: "Been advised not to go on social media ... but I wanted to say happy Christmas to everyone who has been so incredibly kind to me this year....."
She broke down in the dock on Monday as the court heard she allegedly hit her lover's head with a lamp.
The TV host pleaded not guilty to assault at Highbury Corner Magistrates' Court following a 5am bust-up with Lewis at their flat.
She sobbed in the dock as prosecutor Kate Weiss spoke of an 'injury' to Lewis Burton's head.
The court also heard that police officers attending Flack's north London home compared the scene to a 'horror movie' as both parties answered the front door covered in blood.
