She had been with Lee Matthews but revealed she has been bringing up her fifth child as a single mum.
Alongside a pic, Callie, now 38, called Todd 'My 'world' my best friend'.
Todd, who also has children, shared a photo showing him and Callie cuddling up together.
We revealed last year that Callie, of Workington, Cumbria, was dating engineer Lee and had had her fifth child.

But in a later update to mark Navie-Nicola's first birthday, she revealed on social media that she was 'doing it all alone'.
She also said: 'Most would describe the first year as tiring and challenging, but for me it's been the most magical, rewarding year of my life . . . '
She did not reveal the father's identity and there is no suggestion she was talking about Lee.
She reportedly splurged her jackpot over nine years on plastic surgery, cocaine, clothes and hand-outs to friends and family.
Callie is likely to keep her youngest winner record because the minimum age to play the National Lottery has since been lifted to 18.

Matt Willis reveals huge setback of hosting Love Is Blind ahead of series two as wife Emma shares health update after op
Scroll to read why Emma is against a celeb spin-off of the show BUSTED BY SHOW Matt Willis reveals huge setback of hosting Love Is Blind ahead of series two as wife Emma shares health update after op Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) AFTER 25 years of being best-known as Busted's bassist, Matt Willis now has new global fame. Fronting Netflix's Love Is Blind UK, with wife Emma, seems to have eclipsed his band's success of four chart-topping singles and a number one album in just one year. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Fronting Netflix's Love Is Blind UK seems to have eclipsed his band's success Credit: Netflix Matt said with a laugh: 'Busted did a tour at the end of last year, we did Australia, Japan, Mexico and Brazil. 'And we had a few people turn up and go, 'We didn't know you were in a band. We know you from Love Is Blind, so we thought we'd come and see your band'. 'I was like, 'Cool, welcome'. I love it.' Matt and Emma are back to present a second series of the show that follows singles who try to find their perfect partner, sight unseen, to get engaged and marry on the show. It is Emma's first big project on screen since undergoing keyhole surgery earlier this year to repair a hole in her heart. Love Is Blind UK was filmed last year and now she is well enough to be out promoting the run. She said: 'It's really nice to be back. It was nice to have a little time off to recover and focus on what I needed to do. But now it's full steam ahead and back to work, which is nice.' Two couples from series one are still happily married, so are Matt and Emma worried about delivering on series two, which drops on Netflix from August 13? Emma said: 'We filmed it straight after the reunion for series one so the characters from season one were so fresh. I was like, 'How are we ever going to match that?' ' Matt added: 'Watching it happen, being part of the show, you're just rooting for them.' Love is Blind UK podcast gets a new host Despite the trend for shows to have celebrity spin-offs, Emma doesn't think that could ever work here. She said: 'You'd constantly be trying to guess who it was, wouldn't you? 'There'd be certain people that you'd absolutely know who it was. Imagine if Rylan was in there, or Alan Carr. 'You'd be like, 'That's f***ing Rylan!' '

Spotify to hike prices again for millions worldwide next month – here's how much extra YOU'LL need to pay
The streaming giant is looking to improve its margins CHANGING THEIR TUNE Spotify to hike prices again for millions worldwide next month – here's how much extra YOU'LL need to pay Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) SPOTIFY is set to hike its prices again for their millions of worldwide listeners next month. The price of its monthly premium individual subscription will increase from September in select markets. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Spotify has been expanding its library of content to attract more subscribers Credit: Getty The Swedish streaming giant made the announcement on Monday, with subscribers expected to receive an email update explaining the price rise over the next month. Premium individual subscriptions will rise from 10.99 euros to 11.99 euros per month. This will occur in markets including South Asia, the Middle East, Africa, Latin America and the Asia-Pacific region. Spotify achieved its first annual profit for 2024, which can be linked to its previous price increases, as well as cost-cutting efforts in recent years. The company's shares have jumped by nearly 8 per cent this year, and they have gained about 40 per cent so far this year. The number of monthly active users and premium subscribers also increased over the second quarter. However, the company reported a loss during the period due to high taxes related to employee salaries. The price hike comes just months after Spotify showed developments on its "lossless audio" feature which is expected to make bills more expensive. It hopes to make songs sound even better for an extra fee for listeners. Last week, it was also revealed the company is making strict changes to its music app that could see some accounts deleted due to new UK age checks. Spotify's new AI feature lets you ask it to make any playlist for you – but there's a trick to finding it in the app Spotify has started showing popups asking people to confirm their age to access certain content made for adults, such as 18+ music videos. Users can confirm their age by sharing a selfie or their ID, a move which is compliance with new laws of the Online Safety Act. It is designed to protect children from easily stumbling across inappropriate material on the internet. A growing number of creators also are said to be joining the Spotify Partner Program. The programme is designed to help offer podcast creators more options for monetising their content. It has has also enabled the significant increase in video content on the platform for subscribers, according to CEO Daniel Ek. SAVE MONEY ON SPOTIFY One of the best ways to save money on Spotify is sharing. With a Premium Family subscription, you and five others can share the cost. You each get your own Spotify account with your own playlists and everything else, it's just billed from one place. To use Premium Family you have to all be living under the same roof. The plan currently costs £19.99. If you split that six ways, you're looking at £3.33 each, which is a lot less than paying for your own individual subscription at £11.99. Image credit: Getty
