Richie Myler has declared his love for his girlfriend Stephanie Thirkill as he wished her a happy birthday.
The Leeds rugby player split from Strictly Come Dancing’s Helen Skelton earlier this year just four months after welcoming their third child Elsie Kate.
Richie has since moved on with new partner Stephanie and the couple are now expecting their first child together. He celebrated his girlfriend's birthday with a loved up post on Instagram, writing: "Happy birthday bub. Thank you for always being you! I love you lots.”

The birthday post comes as Helen was snapped getting rid of old items, which included wedding presents gifted to her and her ex-husband Richie on their big day in December 2013.
The Strictly Come Dancing took her possessions onto TV show Celebrity Yorkshire Auction House, where they were appraised and sold.
Helen recently opened about how she decided to take part in the BBC dancing competition as she admitted that it “helped her remember who she is” following her marriage breakdown.
During Musical Week, in an emotional clip the ex Blue Peter presenter said: "I did Strictly this year because...sometimes you just need to jump on the opportunity and chance to put a big smile on your face."
Helen's parents then appeared on screen, with her mum saying: “As the weeks have gone on she has become more and more confident. Her dad jumped in: “I mean I am no dance expert but I thought she was fantastic.”
Gorka asked: “Could you ever imagine yourself doing this dance on week one?” Helen admitted: “Absolutely not. I could not have done this week one, week two or three even. It’s kind of quirky, not me at all.”
Helen added: “Strictly have given me so many things already. It’s helped me remember who I am and what I am about.”
