I might have that wrong, but it;s my take on it.
Just from daily mail when I've scanned Ant stories in the past the comments are full of hate for his (now ex) mrs rather than him. Despite, apart from the facts of Ant's addiction and drink driving conviction we don't actually know anything about the circumstances of their relationship really. But she got immediate hate for "not supporting him". People can be crazy.
