Ant’s weight loss comes weeks after the announcement of his divorce from Christina. The couple had been married for just under two years and share a one-year-old son, Hudson.

“Anyone who really knows me knows that I don’t like to share private matters publicly. I have remained silent while holding on to hope, Ant wrote in his Instagram caption. “I never gave up on us. I pray Christina’s decision brings her happiness.”

In the midst of coping, Ant has been taking a five-week breakup recovery and healing course titled The Breakup Recovery Recipe. “I am now on day 30 of this and I have to say it’s been a lifeline for me,” he wrote in an Instagram Story. “If there’s anyone else out there that needs this DO IT!”
