Thomas Skinner’s wife has revealed how she kicked him out of the house following his ‘horrendous’ cheating scandal.
The former Apprentice star, 34, was the first celebrity to leave Strictly Come Dancing with his pro-partner Amy Dowden after a string of poor scores.
Prior to his first performance, Thomas made headlines after apologising for grabbing a journalist’s phone and storming out of a press conference.
This was before he confessed to cheating on his wife Sinead just weeks after their wedding in 2022.
Now, in a new interview, Sinead has sat down to discuss their extremely difficult past few weeks.

Speaking to The Sun, she said: ‘When he first told me what had happened I made him leave. I was devastated. I will never forget Thomas telling me. I remember thinking, “I never thought this would happen to me”.

”It was one of the worst days of my life. I only told one friend, nobody else. But we eventually worked it out. I just knew how much I love him and I wanted to work it out.
‘He made a mistake. It was a tough time. One of his friends had just died. It was four years ago. Now we are stronger than ever.
‘We have moved on. He has learned from it and we have since had our twin daughters. But then, after he signed up for Strictly, it all came out in public. It has been hell.
‘The response from Thomas doing Strictly has been a test for us all. It was horrendous. I cried — everybody knowing about this difficult chapter in our lives nearly four years ago was awful. It was in the past for us.’
Sinead also revealed the ‘horrendous’ death threats Tom has been receiving ever since he announced that he was going onto Strictly.
Reportedly, Tom has received ‘about 200 death threats’ along with abuse following his appearance on the BBC show.
This came after he sparked backlash for being pictured at a barbecue and beers with US Vice President JD Vance.
He also wrote in previous posts on X that it is ‘not far-right’ to be ‘flying your flag and loving your country’.

Last week, Sinead and Tom suffered another setback after learning that their twin daughters are being tested for a life-changing condition.
The couple share three children, Henry, five, and two-year-old twins Roma and Dalia, who both suffered fits.
Thomas wrote on X: ‘We are having a proper s*** time recently. My twins have spent all night in the hospital.
‘Thank you to the wonderful NHS for looking after them. Back home with them now. They’ve both now had 2 fits each, and it is so so scary.’
In an interview with The Sun, however, the Essex-based businessman shared an update.
‘The girls had been poorly with a cold and suddenly their temperature rocketed,’ he explained. ‘They both had febrile convulsions. Roma in the morning and Darla in the evening.’
