The 28-year-old shared: "Nearly 3 weeks on from what will always remain the worst day of my life. Still in shock & still no words – my beautiful Dani is an indescribable loss.
"Nothing can be said or done but I need to acknowledge the immense amount of love, kindness & support that Bowie, Dan’s family, my family & I have received. It has overwhelmed us."
He went on to add: "In the darkest of times, it is extremely difficult to feel anything other than sadness, let alone gratitude, but we have found glimpses of feeling that union of love that has come from far & wide for our Dani.
"She was the best of the best, and that is testament to her. Thank you."
He followed up the touching message with a picture of Dani cuddling their baby son Bowie. The pair were due to wed last month.
