Ex-Radio One DJ Chris Moyles has sparked a feud with his former breakfast show co-host Dave Vitty after he struck up a friendship with his ex-wife, it has been revealed.

The controversial DJ has allegedly struck up a close friendship with Vitty's ex-wife Jayne Sharp, a move which has seen the two former buddies refuse to speak to each other.

Moyles and Vitty were inseparable during their days at the BBC, and famously stayed on air together continuously for 52 hours as part of a charity radio marathon that saw them raise more than £2 million.

However, it has been reported by the Mirror that tensions escalated during the final few months of the show when it came to light the DJ, 38, had started a friendship with Vitty's ex.

A source at Radio One told The Mirror: 'At one point they were jokingly referred to as the Lennon and McCartney of Radio 1, given how tight-knit they were.

'But that changed almost overnight after Dave got wind of Chris and his ex-wife's friendship. Things quickly deteriorated and it was never the same again.'

It is believed that the two held separate leaving parties after the decade-long show came to an end, with the BBC deciding to replace the popular show with a revamped early-morning offering.

The insider added: 'Dave feels totally betrayed by Chris. It's a shame because the two of them were the best of friends for years.'
