'It was fairly amicable, the split. She never told me she was going on the show. That would have been a nice heads up! But I mean fair play, good luck to her.
'I'll be f***ing watching it! Aye, I'll be watching it and going "Go on Paige! Come on, come on!" And when she's on a date with a boy I'll go "Come on! Kiss him!" I hope she wins.'
The couple's split was said to have left Lewis 'gutted' and prompted him to channel his heartache through Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent, the fastest-selling debut album of 2019.
