Disgraced former Scotland rugby captain Stuart Hogg has posted a cryptic message on Instagram following his split from TV presenter Leonna Mayor. The 33-year-old shared the post just hours after Mayor announced the end of their relationship.
Mayor, 34, who hosts horse racing for ITV and Sky Sports, revealed on Friday that she and Hogg were no longer together. The couple had been dating since November 2023 and welcomed son Teddy almost a year ago. In an emotional Instagram statement, Mayor said: 'New year. Fresh start. Me and the most precious thing.'
Hogg's cryptic post, set to the song 'Tit for Tat' by Tate McRae, read: 'The peace that you feel without them is worth being the villain in their story.' The former rugby star was convicted of a domestic abuse campaign against his ex-wife Gilian in November 2024 and sentenced under the Domestic Abuse (Scotland) Act.
Mayor had stood by Hogg during his court case. She now says she hopes for a 'fresh start' with their son. Hogg, who briefly retired from rugby in 2023 before returning to play for French club Montpellier, recently spoke about finding peace after his struggles with alcohol and mental health.
