ok.co.ukJay Blades has reportedly "cut ties" with BBC's The Repair Shop, stepping back from the show following his marriage split and a tragic loss.The BBC host is said to be taking a break from the popular series and has been noticeably absent from filming due to personal issues.
The news comes just six days after his wife Lisa-Marie Zbozen announced their marriage had ended. In what appears to be a subtle jab at the BBC show, Jay has removed all references to The Repair Shop from his social media accounts on X and Instagram, as reported by The Sun.
His bios, which once mentioned The Repair Shop, now read: "Eco Designer, Social Enterpriser and BAFTA,RTS and NTA Awards Winning Presenter." The Repair Shop surprised fans last year when it triumphed over ITV's This Morning for Best Daytime Show at the National Television Awards.
