Former Coronation Street star Kym Marsh is said to have split from her husband Scott Ratcliff after just 19 months of marriage.
According to reports, the 46-year-old actress and ex-soldier Scott, 34, have ended their relationship after tying the knot in October 2021, writes The Mirror.
Scott was Kym's third husband after she married actor Jack Ryder in 2002 and then tied the knot with former Hollyoaks star Jamie Lomas ten years later.
Sources close to Kym have said that the couple have split due to work commitments after trying to get through their issues. They said: "They both really tried to make it work, but the cracks have been there for a while and they were only getting to see each other for one or two days a week at the very most.
"Kym’s been so busy, and last year Strictly meant even her weekends were stacked up along with weekdays rehearsing."
Speaking to The Sun, the source added how "Scott is based in barracks down south — he’s got a very busy career as well".
The former Hear'Say singer and Scott got married just four months after announcing their engagement.
They said 'I do' at Sandhurst military academy in front of friends and family just over a year and a half ago.
Guests included Countdown icon Carol Vorderman and her former Corrie co-star Antony Cotton acted as Master of Ceremonies.
Kym was keen to wed quickly after her father David, 76, was diagnosed with incurable prostate cancer.
She had previously said it was her dream for her dad to walk her down the aisle on her wedding day.
Kym’s children David, 27, Emilie, 24, and Polly, 11, all attended - with Scott’s daughter Renee, six, on the top table.
On their first wedding anniversary last October, Kym shared a photo of the newlyweds at sunset on their big day.
Describing her husband as her "rock" and her "soulmate" she gazed lovingly at her Scott, who wore his red uniform.
She captioned the photo: "1 year ago today I was lucky enough to marry my best friend. This man is everything to me. I honestly don’t know what I would do without him.
"He is my everything, my rock, my friend, my soulmate. Scott, I am so very lucky to be your wife and I thank my lucky stars everyday that you came into my life.
"Of course I have to also give huge thanks to @antonycotton for playing cilla black and introducing us!
"Don’t know how I will ever repay you this one darling hahah! So all that’s left to say is Happy Anniversary my wonderful, amazing, sexy af husband! I love you with all of my heart! Always and forever."
The source added: “Kym’s still a working mum, too, and lives up in Cheshire with her family. In the end it was the fact they lived so far away from each other that just made it impossible."
