Denise Van Outen laughs off drama with ex boyfriend Eddie Boxshall

Denise Van Outen isn’t letting a war of words with her ex Eddie Boxshall dampen her day.

The TV star was pictured arriving at the Steph’s Packed Lunch studios in Leeds on Monday morning, ready for another day of work in front of the camera.

Denise, 47, was in great spirits, beaming from ear to ear despite her ex sharing a scathing Instagram post seemingly directed at her just hours before.

She smiled for the cameras while making her way inside the studios to film one of her regular appearances on the daily talk show.

On Sunday, Denise’s ex Eddie reacted to her recent revelations about his cheating and their relationship in her new tell-all book.

Denise detailed the extreme lengths Eddie, 48, went to in order to keep his affairs secret in her autobiography, A Bit Of Me: From Basildon To Broadway And Back, but the former commodities trader has since taken to Instagram to ‘defend himself.’

Eddie made a jibe at ex-girlfriend with a thinly veiled Instagram post after she claimed he secretly stole her phone and blocked a women he had been sexting.

He posted a black-and-white image of Inspector Clouseau, who is described as an ‘inept and incompetent police detective in the French Sûreté’ – and the accompanying caption led many to believe he was alluding to his ex’s detective skills.

It read: ‘Inspector Clouseau………. The 2nd worst detective in the world !!! [sic] #2sides #holdinghandsup #butdefendingmyself #keepprivatelifeprivate #nolongerbeingcontrolled’.

Underneath, someone left the comment: ‘Someone selling a book [sic]’.

Eddie’s cryptic response – comprising a book and bag of money emoji – implied he believes Denise’s book-writing venture is a ploy for cash.

Another penned: ‘Don’t listen to the noise. No one buys it, especially when someone’s driven to sell books,’, to which Eddie left a prayer emoji.

Despite Eddie’s efforts to conceal his infidelities, Denise still found out when she was using his iPad and the messages came up, with Denise splitting from him in January after seven years together.

Denise wrote: ‘There were also Instagram messages alluding to phone sex with a third woman. I quickly found the woman’s profile by her screen name, only to discover I’d previously blocked her on my Instagram account – which struck me as odd.’

She continued: ‘This was a woman I didn’t know, who’d clearly had an online connection with my boyfriend. Why would I have blocked her from my Instagram account. Straight away, I unblocked her and sent her a message saying how she knew Eddie.’

She added: ‘She suggested that Eddie had probably gone into my phone and blocked her so she couldn’t message me.

‘She has apparently spoken to Eddie over FaceTime and text for a long period – often from our home and sometimes from my flat in Hampstead, which she seemed to think was his.

‘They’d never met in person, but she said the conversations had become sexual in nature reasonably quickly – some of the stuff I found on the phone seemed to support that.

‘However she was upset with Eddie because he’d apparently ghosted her.’

Despite her heartache, Denise has insisted there are ‘no hard feelings’ and that’s she managed to move forward.

Speaking on a recent episode of Lorraine, she said: ‘I’m feeling really good now because I wasn’t in a good place, it was all a bit of a shock.

‘These things happen. I’m not the first person it’s happened to and I won’t be the last, sadly. But it’s life, isn’t it, Lorraine?

‘You just have to get on with it and there are no hard feelings on my side. It’s happened and you just accept it. I can’t change what’s happened.’
