Ant McPartlin appears downcast while puffing on a vape.

Ant McPartlin cut a downcast figure as he smoked a vape on Thursday night, after co-host Declan Donnelly revealed he needed therapy following his pal's drink-drive arrest.

The Britain's Got Talent front-man, 43, took a quick smoking break in West London following the pair's eye-opening interview with the Guardian's Weekend Magazine, which was published on Saturday.

During the interview Dec admitted he 'sought help' after Ant took a break from presenting in the duties in the wake of his arrest, and went onto confess he even considered splitting from his presenting partner after 30 years together.

Ant cut a solo figure as he was seen out and about in West London, briefly stopping to puff on a vape before going on his way.

It comes as he and Dec had their first joint interview since Ant's recent troubles, ahead of the return of Britain's Got Talent next Saturday.

During the candid chat, Dec admitted that he sought therapy to cope with the fallout of Ant's arrest, as he was left to host BGT and Saturday Night Takeaway solo.

He said: 'I’m not too proud to say I sought help when Ant was away and throughout Ant going away. It’s the most destabilising thing that has ever happened to me.'
