The couple wed in front of just 15 guests in the grounds of a beachfront villa in Barbados in November 2022 where they exchanged ‘imperfect’ rings designed by Repair Shop colleague Richard Talman.
In a statement posted online early this morning, Lisa said: “I don’t know how to say this because it’s still really raw.
“I probably should be really angry but I’m just incredibly sad about the whole thing right now.
“‘I don’t think I’ve ever cried so much.”
Fitness guru Lisa-Marie, 44, added: “I will admit I’m crying as I type this as I can’t believe this is even real. I hope you don’t mind if I just have a few days trying to figure out my life as I’m currently in a spare room with a few essentials.
“I don’t know what else to say.
“All my love, A very broken Lisa-Marie x”
It comes a day after Blades announced that he would be taking time away from social media to process his grief following the death of his uncle.
In a video on his instagram account he said: ”I’m coming off social media for a bit, and I’ll be back in a bit. Going to go and get some therapy and just chill out. Please, take care of each other, take care of yourself, and I’ll see you guys soon.”
Richard Brathwaite, 72, was found dead on Cromwell Road in Wembley around lunchtime on March 21 after his next door neighbour Derek Brown, who lived on the same street, allegedly knifed him.

He is also accused of attacking Richard’s wife – Jay’s aunt – during the tragedy.
The defendant will next appear in court for a plea hearing on June 11.
FAMILY TRAGEDY
Jay’s family and friends flocked to give their support, with Julia Bradbury offering her condolences.
She wrote: “Sorry to hear this Jay. Glad you’re taking some time out.”
Fred Sirieix sent a red heart emoji, while 5News host Claudia-Liza Vanderpuije said: “Look after you bro. So sorry for your loss.”
Louise Minchin wrote: “I am so sorry to hear this, sending you love xx.”
JAY AND LISA MARIE’S RELATIONSHIP
Jay got down on one knee with a ring he designed and was made by his co-star Richard Talman who works as a goldsmith on the show in 2021.
They tied the knot in a sunny Caribbean ceremony on November 2022 with just 15 guests attending.
Speaking to Hello! magazine about their special day, Jay, 52, said: “One word sums up the day: perfect.
“We had our closest family there, the weather held out and everything worked out so well.”
Lisa, 41, added: “Once you get to a certain age, you realise what’s actually important on the day – and that is having the people around you that love you for who you are.
“So we made the day our day.”
Jay was overcome with emotion during the ceremony.
The television presenter confessed: “I think the thing that was most emotional for me was actually saying the vows.
“It was almost like I had tunnel vision and I could only see Lisa there.
“And honestly, that’s when it really hit me. I was like, ‘We’re really getting married now!’. That’s the only time I really got emotional.”
Jay was previously married to his ex-wife Jade.
The pair, who split up in 2015, share daughter Zola, 15.
Jay has previously spoken out about his troubled childhood after growing up in poverty.
The star’s mum was abandoned by his dad when he was a youngster.
Jay ended up homeless in his 20s before being given social housing but has since gone on to carve out a successful career in TV.
The dad-of-three was awarded an MBE in 2021 and filmed a special episode of Repair Shop last year with King Charles.
