There has been widespread speculation in the national media that Chiswick-based TV presenter Ant McPartlin may be moving away from the area.

Newspaper reports last week suggested he was relocating to a luxury house in the south-west of London, while there was also speculation he might move abroad to Portugal where he has a holiday home next door to Declan Donnelly.

It would be the first time that the two Geordie friends have lived so far apart from each other - they shared a flat when they came to London and lived in the same street in Grove Park for several years.

Depending which report you believe he was either moving to a £4 million luxury home with a games room and private bar, or "dropping a cryptic clue " that he was leaving the UK to live abroad. The Portugal move story was sparked by the fact that the vans seen outside his home had the name Algarve Removals on the side. The company specialises in relocating UK residents to Spain and Portugal.

Ant has been keeping a low profile since entering treatment following a 20 month driving ban and a fine of £86,000 after admitting drink-driving following a collision with two others cars in Upper Richmond Road.

However he was seen looking happy and relaxed during a lunch with his friend Dec at a pub in south London last week.

The two friends have been best pals since school and lived only yards away from each other in Grove Park.
