Vernon Kay and Daughter Phoebe Attend NFL London Game Amidst Divorce

Vernon Kay, 52, attended the NFL game in London on Sunday with his daughter Phoebe, 21, at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The event saw the Indianapolis Colts defeat the Washington Commanders 30-13. Kay, who is currently going through a divorce from Tess Daly, shared photos of their outing, where he was not wearing his wedding ring.

Phoebe, who is the elder of Kay's two daughters with Daly, posted images of their time at the stadium. In one snapshot, the father and daughter posed on the field. Phoebe wore a red t-shirt, jeans, and heels, accessorizing with a football-shaped bag. Kay also shared a throwback picture of himself and Phoebe at a game when she was younger, with the caption, "Same sport same @commanders years apart @phoebeekay."

Vernon and Tess Daly announced their separation in May. Last month, Daly was seen without her wedding ring at a public event. The pair issued a joint statement at the time of their split, stating they had made the "decision to separate amicably" after 23 years of marriage. They emphasized their commitment to remaining "great friends" and "fully committed to our roles as loving and supportive parents."

Reports in August indicated that Kay had purchased a property approximately 15 minutes away from his family home. While he is reportedly still residing with Daly, the new house is said to be undergoing renovations. Sources suggest Kay is keen to remain close to Daly and their daughters, Phoebe and Amber, 17.

The couple's amicable approach to their separation has drawn praise from fans and public figures, who have commended their continued friendship and commitment to their children.
