Vernon Kay denies split from Strictly's Tess Daly

Vernon Kay has addressed speculation that he has split from his wife Tess Daly.

The TV host has kept under the radar for quite some time as Tess spends her weekends fronting Strictly Come Dancing on BBC.

But it left fans speculating about the pairs status after not being pictured together in months - when they both attended Elton John's AIDS Foundation part in July.

In an unintentional bid to silence the critics, Vernon took to Instagram to post a snap of his two daughters he shares with Tess - Phoebe, 15, and Amber, 10 - on the beach on a recent holiday.

He captioned the image: "After being in the Middle East for a week, no better feeling than coming home."

And whilst that didn't really address any rumours, he took particular aim at a fans comment.

"Feels like you and @tessdaly are living separate lives. I hope not. Love you guys," someone wrote below the post.

But the All Star Family Fortunes presenter didn't take too kindly responding: "Pictures of our family life are all labelled nicely on an iPad or in Apple photo books for us to share, as a family.

"No need to invite the world into our home life, some do, but it's not for us. We are [100 emoji]. Thanks for asking."

Though fans may have missed that Tess commented on the post writing: "My birthday trip. Special memories."
