George Bowie has been banned from dating app Tinder after a bet with his wife Ellene went wrong.
The couple, who have been married for over 25 years, decided to go head-to-head in a bet with both of them downloading the dating app to see who could get 'the most swipes'.
Earlier in the week, George told his Twitter followers of his plans before announcing it on his morning radio show.
He wrote: "So I've officially joined Tinder in a race against my wife to see who can get the most swipes over the weekend. Let the games begin!"
He then shared a picture of Ellene's profile and wrote: "Tinder users, do not let this woman fool you she is married and wearing my hat."
But now, the bet has come to an early halt after George was rumbled and Tinder banned his account.
Sharing a screenshot of his message from Tinder, he wrote: "Think the Tinder experiment is over. My account has been banned because I couldn't prove I was human!"
And his followers couldn't help but laugh.
One said: "OMG so Mrs Bowie was the winner congratulations."
Another added: "Yeah yeah! Way to cover up the shame of no swipes. Mrs Bowie would’ve been inundated."
While the rest of the comments were several laughing emojis.
George and Ellene celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary just last month, and despite both signing up to Tinder this week they still appear to be more in love than ever.
They celebrated their special anniversary with a fry up breakfast and a cocktail for Mrs Bowie.
George who is best known for his GBX show, even posted on Instagram to mark the occasion and joked that 25 years with him would drive anyone to drink.
The couple tied the knot in October 1996 at Luss Parish Church on Loch Lomond, followed by a reception at Cameron House.
After their wedding in 1996, the couple didn't pick up their wedding photograph album but in 2015, George surprised Ellene with it on Valentine's Day, 18 years later.
