Sulvinder Samra, the ex-wife of Dr Ranj Singh, has said she is 'lost for words' after receiving an outpouring of support online following her candid comments about their divorce. The former couple met in 2003 and married two years later, but separated in 2011 when Dr Ranj came out as gay.
In a video posted on Instagram, Samra thanked fans for their messages, saying: 'Honestly, the past 24 hours has been surreal in ways unimaginable. I just want to say thank you for sharing your stories with me.' She added that sharing her story was 'pushing myself way out of my comfort zone and facing my fears'.
Earlier this week, Samra spoke publicly for the first time about the breakup, marking what would have been their 20th anniversary. In a lengthy post, she described feeling 'alone in a marriage' and 'mourning' the end of her relationship, as well as battling feelings of 'not being good enough'.
Dr Ranj, 46, discussed the end of their marriage in a recent interview with the Big Issue, revealing he came out to a close friend around age 30 before telling his wife and family. He has since started a relationship with actor James Coldenbrook, making their romance Instagram official last year.
