Jeff Brazier puts £1.2m mansion up for sale as ex snubs him amid marriage split

Jeff Brazier has put his £1.2million home up for sale following his split from wife Kate O'Dwyer.

The dad-of-two, 43, took to social media on Monday to share the sad news he and Kate, 32, had called time on their nine-year romance as he opened up about feeling lonely and struggling to adapt to his new life.

He poignantly told his Instagram followers how his "relationship ended earlier in the year" amid reports PR executive Kate left their family home due to 'not wanting to be a stay at home wife'.

"The boys and I have recently moved home to a new area & I spend most of the time alone as the boys obviously have their own things going on," Jeff wrote within his moving update to his fans online.

The former Shipwrecked star - who shared his two sons with the late Jade Goody - has now put the sprawling property he, Kate and his sons, Bobby, 19, and Freddie, 18, once shared on the market.

Jeff's stunning abode boasts an outdoor gym, a huge garden and has featured extensively on both the TV star and Kate's Instagram accounts over recent years.

The TV star, who also works as a life coach, often shares snaps and videos of himself working out in the garden where he had a gym set-up.

Former reality TV star Jeff and Kate had been together since 2013 and tied the knot in 2018. Jeff's two teenage sons, EastEnders actor Bobby and his younger brother Freddie, acted as the best men on the former couple's wedding day.

Kate now no longer follows her estranged husband's main Instagram account, while Jeff still follows his ex but hasn't liked any of her posts recently.

Jeff, who raised his sons following Big Brother legend Jade's death in in 2009, last shared a picture of Kate to his main Instagram page back in July. The PR executive has not featured in any of his grid posts since.

Captioning a picture of him and Kate for her birthday five months ago, Jeff wrote: "Happy Birthday to my wonderful wife @katebrazierpr I look forward to making it a special day for you."

Kate's last social media post involving Jeff came last year, as she shared a family snap on Christmas Day.

Jeff announced the end of his marriage with a lengthy statement about 'a challenging year' on Instagram, which reads: "A moment to practice what I preach and start the new week with honesty.

"One for the smilers and eternally positive individuals who don’t often afford themselves the right to share their own vulnerabilities," he wrote.

"I have so much to be grateful for and I appreciate facing the lessons I need to grow but this year has been challenging to say the least."

He continued to reveal: "My 9 year relationship ended earlier in the year and I’ve been working through that on top of supporting someone close to me who is going through something difficult.

"The boys and I have recently moved home to a new area & I spend most of the time alone as the boys obviously have their own things going on.

"It’s been constant change this year and I’m good with adapting but the combination of things have left me low at times and I’ve honestly never felt loneliness like it. Can we put Christmas back a few months?!

"I have lots of great friends and I know they’re a phone call away but sometimes I find it hard to admit I’m struggling with all of the change preferring just to keep working through it myself. I’m a bit too good at that."

Jeff concluded the candid post saying: "There was always going to come a day when the boys didn’t want or need me so much and I thought I’d be more than ok with having all this time on my hands!"
