PA MediaTV presenter and podcast host Fearne Cotton has announced that she and her husband Jesse Wood have separated following ten years of marriage.
In a post to her Instagram story on Friday, she said: “It is with a heavy heart that I let you all know that Jesse and I are ending our marriage.
“Our priority has been, and will always be, our children.
“We please ask that you respect the privacy of our family at this time.”
Cotton married Wood, the son of Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood, in July 2014 at Richmond Register Office in south-west London after announcing their engagement in 2013.
The couple, who share son Rex and daughter Honey, met in Ibiza in 2011.
Wood has two other children, Arthur and Lola, from a previous relationship.
Earlier in the month, Cotton announced she was undergoing an operation to remove two benign tumours from her jaw and would be resting after “to get better before Christmas”.
The broadcaster has presented on shows including The Xtra Factor, Top Of The Pops, and was a panellist on ITV’s Celebrity Juice.
In 2015 she stepped down from presenting BBC Radio 1’s mid-morning show for “family and new adventures”, after she revealed she was pregnant with her second child earlier that year.
Cotton currently hosts the Happy Place podcast where she has interviewed celebrities including US actress Riley Keough, Scottish TV and film star David Tennant and singer Perrie Edwards.
