'We all seek validation, but she started looking for it in the wrong places in my opinion. It just made me close off.' MailOnline have contacted Millie Mackintosh's rep for comment.
He also revealed his divorce to Millie came at a considerable cost - but says the split was 'worth it'.
'You know what they say about divorce is it’s expensive, you know why? Because it’s worth it,' he joked. 'I can't stop working right now, my mortgage isn't paid, I am not a house owner.

The rapper, 32, wed reality star Millie Mackintosh, 28, in 2013 but their marriage broke down and they announced their divorce in 2016
'The bank own my house, I own a percentage of it depending on where it sits in the market.'
The documentary maker, who wed the reality star-turned-fashionista in 2013 before splitting just three years later, also launched a scathing attack on her 'fake friends'.
He explained to the comedian in the fourth series of his chat show for W, how his relationship to the confectionery heiress became 'toxic'.
Explaining how their love for one another transcended their dramatically different upbringings, he told how the relationship nevertheless began to unravel because of their high-profile status.
