GAZ Beadle has spoken out this weekend after ex-wife Emma McVey was trolled over going public with her new boyfriend.
The couple shocked fans when they announced their split last October after a seven-year relationship and two years of marriage.
Emma was targeted by cruel trolls when she shared pictures of her and her new man attending a wedding together on Sunday.
However, determined to stay in each other's corner, Gaz shared a timely post hours after Emma's with photos of their children Chester and Primrose - and made his feelings clear about his family's new normal.
He wrote on Instagram: "Circumstances change but one thing stays the same... if they're happy I am happy.... got lucky with the weather but what a few days we had up at sea houses.
"The beaches, the castle, swimming, scooters etc - loved every minute... and our little friends and family visiting."

In the pictures, the family were seen enjoying the beach, building sandcastles and playing across the weekend as they stayed in a caravan park.
The weekend away comes just a week after Gaz and Emma clubbed together to release a rare joint statement about their new family unit, saying they were "happier than ever" as they figure out life as a separated family.
Posting on Instagram on May 20, Gaz wrote: "We hate the fact we have to justify ourselves but when there's so much speculation on our lives that isn't true we have to.
"Me and Emma are better than we ever have been, we speak daily and are really good friends.

"Our marriage broke down a long time before we publicly announced we were separating, and it's taken a lot to get where we are now but we are both happy and happy for each other."
Since their break-up, both stars have moved on with new partners, with Gaz believed to be dating pro golf star Charley Hull.
Emma has also gone public with her new love, first sharing photos with her new man in May.
"Our main focus through it all has been the kids, and we've done everything to make sure their lives stay settled and happy," Gaz said in the statement.
"Both of us are in new relationships and we all get along well, and we can say we are so proud of ourselves to be able to all stay as one team."
Gary signed off the message with a simple "thanks" as Emma quickly re-shared the post to her own Instagram account.
