Jay Blades’ wife Lisa Marie Zbozen has left her husband, the ‘Repair Shop’ star. According to The Sun, Lisa Marie Zbozen said she has left the star, who she married in November 2022.

In a statement posted online this morning, Lisa, wife of BBC star Jay, told her followers and fans: “I don’t know how to say this because it’s still very painful. I should probably be really angry but I’m just incredibly sad about the whole thing at the moment.”

“I don’t think I’ve ever cried so much. I admit that I’m crying as I write this because I can’t believe this is true. I hope you don’t mind if I have a few days to get my life back on track because I’m currently in a guest room with a few essentials.”

“I don’t know what else to say. Love, a very heartbroken Lisa-Marie x” It follows news that 54-year-old Jay’s uncle was reportedly stabbed to death by a neighbour on a quiet residential street following a long-running dispute over a shared lane.

In a video post, Blades told his 193,000 followers that the incident left him feeling “messed up” and needed time to “get some therapy.” Wearing his trademark flat cap and dark suit, Blades told the camera: “I was just at my uncle’s funeral, he was murdered a couple of weeks ago.”

“Really, super nice guy, that shouldn’t have happened to him,” the presenter added. “But it’s really affected me… I’m feeling a bit of a mess.” Blades revealed his plans to get professional psychological support. He added: “When things happen, sometimes you have to take stock and just relax.”

The “Repair Shop” host assured his fans that he would be back online soon and urged his followers to “look after each other” and “look after themselves” in the meantime.
