Kym Marsh removes husband Scott from her Instagram after sudden split

Kym Marsh has removed her husband Scott Ratcliff's name from her Instagram bio after their shock split.

The former Coronation Street actor, 46, and soldier Scott, 34, tied the knot in October 2021.

However, after only 19 months together, it was recently reported that the two made the decision to go their separate ways.

According to sources, the two only got to see each other a couple of times a week and it put a strain on their relationship.

Their break-up is said to have been amicable as they reportedly had a "trial split" just after their first anniversary.

People have noticed that the actress no longer has Scott's name on her social media description.

Her description used to read: "Mum to David, Emilie, Polly and Archie [heart emoji] YaYa to Teddy, Polly and Clay. Wife to Scott. Actor, presenter singer."

And now, she has removed the 'wife to Scott' from the biography section.

She was spotted without her wedding ring this weekend and a source explained the reasons behind the Coronation Street actress’ split.

An insider told OK! Magazine : “Kym and Scott are both saddened by the split. Unfortunately, distance and career paths led to the breakdown.”

“Friends thought it was just a glitch and they would get back together but it just hasn’t resolved itself,” said the source.

Despite them both “really trying” to make their marriage work, the source claimed their busy work commitments have been a big problem for them as they were reported to have only been seeing each other for one or two days a week at most.

The source continued: “Scott is a lovely bloke and Kym hopes they will remain friends. He has his career down in Essex. Kym has her family, career and life up North and sadly nothing can change for either of them.”

Scott and Kym tied the knot at Sandhurst military academy in front of friends and family plus celebrity guests including telly star Carol Vorderman.

Her former Corrie co-star Antony Cotton acted as Master of Ceremonies.

Kym’s children David, 27, Emilie, 24, and Polly, 11, all attended – with Scott’s daughter Renee, six, on the top table.
