Denise Van Outen’s cheating ex Eddie Boxshall cruelly mocked the star’s detective skills after she discovered his infidelity.

The 47-year-old left the former commodities trader, who had appeared alongside Denise on Celebrity Gogglebox, when she found out he had been texting other women behind their backs for months.

The stage and TV star detailed Eddie’s affairs in her new book, A Bit Of Me: From Basildon To Broadway And Back, as she claimed he stole her phone to block a woman he had sexed.

Denise has spoken publicly about how her seven-year romance with Eddie came to an abrupt end when she found out he had been cheating on her, and he has denied her claims with cryptic posts on social media.

On Sunday, he alluded to Denise’s detective skills and said he was “defending himself” by trying to clear up any untruths.

Sharing a black and white photo of inept Pink Panther detective Inspector Clouseau, Eddie wrote: “Inspector Clouseau…… The second worst detective in the world!!! [sic] #2sides #holdinghandsup #butdefendingmyself #keepprivatelifeprivate #nolongerbeingcontrolled.”

The 48-year-old’s caption led many of his followers to speculate that he directed the malicious caption at ex Denise, and when one of his fans left a comment on her book, Eddie wasted no time in seemingly accusing her of making money her cleavage.

“Someone is selling a book,” they asked, prompting them to reply with a book and a bag of money emoji.

“Don’t listen to the noise. Nobody buys it, especially if someone wants to sell books,” wrote another, with Eddie leaving a prayer emoji in response.

Denise said she was devastated when she found out the truth about Eddie’s affairs, including his efforts to hide his infidelity.

She said there were Instagram messages alluding to “phone sex” with a woman, while messages on his iPad showed he’d been in touch with others as well.

Denise tried to get in touch with one of them and believes Eddie used her phone to block the women on her Instagram account so they wouldn’t discover his cheating.

“They had never met in person, but she said the conversations turned sexual in nature pretty quickly — some of the stuff I found on the phone seemed to confirm that,” Denise said of one of Eddie’s mistresses.

Despite the heartbreak, she’s moving on with her life and said she has “no hard feelings” about her ex.

“I’m feeling really good now because I wasn’t in a good place, it was all a bit of a shock. These things happen. I’m not the first person this has happened to and unfortunately I won’t be the last,” she recently told Lorraine.
