The groom – who split with Micah Lussier at the altar – shared a picture of a bouquet of flowers and a note on Instagram, with the message: ‘Thanks for acknowledging the accidental misleading @vanessalachey.’

Talking to People Magazine after receiving the flowers, he revealed that the Netflix production team also sent over a separate floral display.

‘They did send me flowers but that was separate from the apology,’ he said. ‘[Vanessa] sent me a message acknowledging that she “may have been misled about how you wanted to defend yourself.”

‘I think it was supposed to be a sort of apology for the clear bias. At least that’s the way I took it.’

Metro.co.uk has contacted reps for Nick, Vanessa and Netflix for a comment.
