The tour will no doubt come as a welcome distraction for Banjo, who is mourning the loss of his beloved pet dog Rocky.

The sad news came just 24 hours after Ashley, 29, revealed he was the proud owner of a new Great Dane puppy.

Sharing the news of his sad loss on social media, Ashley shared a snap of the cute pooch and said: “RIP Rocky.

“I didn’t want today to pass without introducing you all to a very special soul. Most of you have never seen him...

“But he’s been in my life since I was a kid and today we lost him. I wanted you all to see his handsome face! Love you and miss you already boy.”

His latest addition to the family may be helping heal his heartbreak and Ashley admitted he was smitten with his new pup.

He told his fans the little dog was called Melvin and that he was eight-weeks old.

Ashley added: “I’m sure there will be a lot more pics to come, he won’t be this small for long!”
