Former Radio 1 duo Chris Moyles and Comedy Dave are at war – after Moyles reportedly struck up a close friendship with the ex-wife of his friend.

According to sources the pals are no longer talking to each other and are embroiled in a ‘bitter feud’ after Dave Vitty, 38, discovered his wife Jayne Sharp had become close to loudmouthed DJ Moyles.

Friends of Dave, who met Jayne when she was a runner on the Radio 1 Breakfast show, said he felt betrayed by the pair’s close friendship.

Chris and Dave held separate leaving parties after the Radio 1 Breakfast show ended after ten years with friends meeting Dave at a London pub before moving on to meet Chris, 38, at another.

A radio 1 insider told the Daily Mirror: ‘They were so tight knit but that changed almost overnight after Dave got wind of the friendship.

‘Things deteriorated fast and it was never the same again.’
