_ Man's Bez friend! Happy Mondays star Shaun Ryder is reunited with lost dog Malcolm after Peak District search

Shaun Ryder's dog Malcolm has been found after going missing in the Peak District for 48 hours.

The beagle bolted away after a sheep while he was being walked by the Happy Monday's star's wife Joanne, near Old Glossop, in Derbyshire, on Sunday morning.

Malcolm's disappearance triggered a search by mountain rescue and charity volunteers.

But Happy Mondays star Shaun was thrilled to be reunited with his pet pooch on Tuesday.

The Drone to Home charity helped find Malcolm and captured the sweet moment he was found safe and well.

He wrote on Instagram: 'Malcolm is home! A massive thank you to The Glossop Mountain Rescue and Drone to Home for finding him!

'Also, thanks to everyone that posted comments with helpful info, links and kind words – all much appreciated.

'Please donate here: Glossop Mountain Rescue https://gmrt.org.uk/ Drone to Home https://dronetohome.org.uk/contact/'

A GMRT spokesperson said: 'Happy Endings for Malcom! We were made aware of Malcom going missing and our team were in communication with the family, with our members keeping our eyes out as we went about our area.

'We're extremely pleased to see that, following sightings reported by our team and work from Drone To Home, Malcom is now reunited with his owner after his moorland experience!'

It comes after Shaun opened up about the shocking reason why he still has to 'work hard and make money' at his age.

The Happy Mondays star, 61, revealed he has to work as hard as he does in order to fund therapy for five of his six children, who are all grappling with ADHD .

Shaun, who starred in I'm A Celeb South Africa this year, had previously disclosed that only his two daughters had the condition, but has now detailed that Jael, Coco, Pearl, Lulu, Joseph, and Oliver also have it.

Talking to The Sun the Black Grape frontman - who was diagnosed himself in his fifties - told how having the condition has meant one of his daughters is a 'genius at maths'.

He went on to stress the uniqueness of each ADHD case, stating that each one is different.

Reflecting on how his ADHD causes him to forget things, Shaun spoke out about how when he was at school, he would often leave the classroom, instantly forgetting what he had just been taught and how having the condition can affect his behaviour and lead to impulsive actions like drug use, which he has openly admitted to using .

The Gogglebox star said: 'Even though I wasn't diagnosed until 50 odd years old, when I was at school while I was in the class I would take things and understand it, by the time the lesson had ended and I walked out that door I couldn't remember anything. I just didn't retain the information.

'And also the ADHD, with me, led to promiscuous behaviour, drugs, trouble.'

MailOnline has contacted Shaun's representatives for comment.

Shaun first rose to prominence in the 80s with his band the Happy Mondays, alongside late brother Paul and their friends Mark Day, Paul Davis, and Gary Whelan. His friend and bandmate, Bez, later joined the band as a percussionist.

In the 90s he was also the lead singer of another band, Black Grape, and has since reportedly amassed a fortune of more than £2.5million.

As well as his singing career, Shaun has also enjoyed successful stints on reality television.

Shaun has been married to his wife Joanna since 2010 and they share three children, Pearl, 15, and Lulu, 14, and a son Olli.
