On his posts, fans have commented: “You are soooo lovely, keep going, we’re right behind you x” and “All the best – my son is running it too for MIND.” Others wrote: “Good luck Daniel, such a good cause you are running for. Thank you” and “Well done you. Great cause too.”
Daniel first appeared on TV screens with partner Stephen Webb. The two were renowned for their roles as armchair critics on the popular Channel 4 programme, the couple welcomed fans into their homes every Friday to provide hilarious observations about the week’s best TV before quitting the show in 2023.
Daniel Lustig has spoken out about his marriage and divorce from Stephen Webb. The former Gogglebox couple parted ways last year after six years of being together.
Speaking to Express.co.uk at the Gaydio Pride Awards 2025, Daniel revealed: “I am single now, yeah I’m still single.” The hairdresser dropped a hint about possibly appearing on another TV show, this time focused on dating.
He teased: “But I might be going on something to do with dating soon. You’ll have to wait and see.” He joked: “I’ve got to find a date soon, haven’t I!” Daniel’s comments come after ex-husband Stephen enjoyed success on Channel 4’s Celebs Go Dating, which aired earlier this year.
In January, Daniel opened up on new podcast ‘Suddenly Single’ hosted by Best Magazine UK, he revealed he’s back dating again after his ‘devastating’ split from Stephen. He said the breakup was a ‘slow process’ and for a while they were still sleeping in the same bed even after they had called time on the relationship.
Daniel and Stephen still have a lot of respect for each other despite Daniel admitted the split was “traumatic” and he didn’t see it coming, although he knew things “weren’t great”. On the night the relationship ended they spent the evening reminiscing on memories of their time together over sweets and crisp.
Although Daniel was supportive of Stephen’s TV journey, he admitted the dating scene was initially daunting for him. In a candid moment, he explained: “I think it’d be nice to start to meet someone again. I have put myself on some dating apps and I have been on a few dates, so it’s interesting.”
