Willcock also posted a message of support for Earps on his own Instagram.
He said: "What a journey. The lows, the highs. Your resilience and Bouncebackability. Your drive and determination to keep pushing your limits, driving standards everyday. No stone left unturned. Relentless. You’ve taken on the big hitters and won. Be very very proud of everything you have achieved. And thank you for being an amazing human when times were tough for me and my family (and yes you and baggers got me) Keep being an inspiration for everyone around the world, including my daughter. 'Work hard in silence let success make the noise'. 'If you’re great you’ll get it if you’re consistent you’ll keep it.'
