ANT McPartlin has reportedly reached an agreement with his ex-wife Lisa Armstrong over the heartbreaking loss of their dog.
The former couple shared pup Hurley during their 11-year marriage, with Ant sharing that the beloved chocolate Labrador had passed away earlier this year.
In an emotional update, 50-year-old Ant, who is now married to Anne-Marie Corbett, confirmed last month that Hurley had died in his arms.
Now, it has been alleged that he and Lisa, who split in 2023, reached an agreement over Hurley.
“Ant and Lisa agreed to share Hurley’s ashes 50/50,” a source told MailOnline.
“It’s a decision they felt was fair and it means they’ll both be able to hold their own farewells.”
They continued to the publication: “Ant has already collected his ashes, while Lisa intends to do likewise when she returns from her trip.
“It’s likely the ashes will be buried in their own respective gardens so they’ll both be able to regularly pay their respects to Hurley.”
Ant was with make-up artist Lisa for over two decades, with the pair going through a divorce in 2018 which saw them reach a massive £31million deal.
Hurley became Britain’s best known celebrity dog during Ant and Lisa’s highly-publicised custody battle following their divorce.
They eventually agreed to share custody and Hurley spent his time between their homes.
The pair recently came together to say goodbye to Hurley, who they got in 2013.
The Sun revealed how they had to make the decision to put Hurley down at the vet due to him being too ill to recover.
And confirming the situation, Ant explained on his and Dec Donnelly’s podcast: “He passed away in my arms.
“We were at the vet’s and we were all there to see him, all the family, everyone that he loved was there, and it was a very sad, but it was a very lovely moment when we all got to say goodbye to him.”
The presenter, who has two other dogs, went on to share how the grief has been “awful” and has seen him often break down in tears.
