Countryfile host Helen Skelton has wowed the judges on Strictly Come Dancing and even Cha Cha Cha-ed her way up the leaderboard. The mum-of-three joined the show during a tough time shortly after her husband, rugby star Richie Myler, walked out on their marriage.
At the time of their split back in April, the former couple's youngest child, Elsie Kate, was just four months old. They are also parents to sons, Ernie, seven, and Louis, five.
In a short statement, a shocked and heartbroken Helen confirmed the end of her eight-year marriage to the Leeds Rhinos star, telling fans: "Very sad to say that Richie and I are no longer a couple. He has left the family home. We will be doing our best to co parent our small children."
