said: 'Happy 18th birthday to my amazing son and best mate in the world
x I love you so so much mate @KJ_Artist #familyfirst'

'To
say Danniella is distraught would be a massive understatement. Her life
has been turned upside down . She is obviously worried something like
this will push her into going back into drugs but is determined not to
let it ruin her life.'
'She
is even hoping she and Tom can one day be friends. Tom has shown
geniune remorse for the row and she knows he's a good person at heart.'
