Danny-Boy Hatchard’s dog has died.
The former ‘EastEnders’ actor returned to his Twitter account today (26.07.17) – following three weeks away – to announce that his pooch Django had passed away.
He wrote alongside a photograph of him and the pooch: "A lot of you may have noticed my recent absence from social media, and that today is in fact my birthday. However, in all honesty, I’m feeling light years away from wanting to celebrate.
"The truth is in recent weeks my heart has been shattered into a thousand pieces, and only now have I began to find the strength to put the pieces back together, and pluck up the courage to release the horrific news that my baby boy Django has passed away."
The 26-year-old hunk refused to divulge how the blue French Bulldog died but he told fans he will share more details of his passing when he feels ready in due course.
He added: "I am feeling beyond lost and still heavily grieving, but will release a blog with more details in due course. I have written and deleted pages and pages of things to say but I’ve come to realise that I am just not ready yet, so please bear with me."
Danny then concluded his message by asking fans not to wish him happy birthday but to, instead, prayer for his perfect pet pooch and hold him in their thoughts.
He said: "In the meantime, as a polite request, please don’t wish me happy birthday, but instead say a prayer for my little angel and spare a moment to hold him in your thoughts. I want today to be about him. Thank you (sic)."
