Frankie Bridge posted a tearful selfie on ‘Blue Monday’ just hours after her husband, Wayne, cancelled his fight with YouTube star, KSI.

Wayne, 44, was due to face the social media sensation in a Misfits boxing bout in March, but after KSI’s comments about the former footballer’s ex-girlfriend, he has pulled out. KSI taunted the dad-of-three about his former partner, Vanessa Perroncel, having an alleged affair with Chelsea star, John Terry – something Ms. Perroncell has always denied.

Hours after Wayne swerved the fight, Frankie, 36, who has spoken candidly about her struggles with mental health in the past, posted a snap of herself gazing solemnly into the camera with the caption: “Today is Blue Monday so I’m reminding myself of everything I’ve been working on. ” Blue Monday is the name given to a day in January (typically the third Monday of the month) that is considered the most depressing day of the year.

However, determined to battle against the blues, Frankie then shared a photo, with her finger on her lips, working up a sweat in the gym, telling her followers she didn’t want to exercise, but felt “much better” for it.

There has been a lot of drama in the Bridge household recently after Wayne announced in a statement he’d pulled out of the fight after KSI aimed a jibe at him after Misfits Boxing 20 on Saturday night, regarding his ex-girlfriend’s alleged affair with Terry.

During a face-off in the ring with Wayne, KSI spat: “Aren’t you the guy that let John Terry smash your ex? ‘ Bridge replied: “You want to go there straight away do you?

“I’m pretty sure that’s what you’re known for,’ KSI added, before riling up the crowd and chanting: “Vanessa woah, Vanessa woah”, referencing the former footballer’s ex-girlfriend, who shares a son with Wayne.

Following the fracas, Wayne announced that he wished to protect his family from such comments and will seek another challenge in the ring later down the line.

Announcing he would not be fighting KSI in March, he said: “I’m sure a lot of you have seen what happened on Saturday night at the Misfits Boxing event.

“Firstly, I think it’s important that I explain my reason for accepting the fight. I always like to challenge myself. This felt like a good opportunity to go up against an interesting opponent on a big stage.

“I have always loved boxing as part of my everyday training routine. I was fully prepared to train hard and have some fun. Of course, I expected to face some criticism, but I feel like what was said on Saturday crossed a line. These are deeply personal comments that affect mine and other families involved in the situation. I’m a family man first and my priority is protecting them. “
