Jake Quickenden and his wife Sophie Church have reportedly separated following four years of marriage.
Sources have indicated the pair have informed close friends and relatives about their decision to end their relationship.
The 37-year-old former X Factor contestant and I'm A Celebrity campmate wed the influencer in 2022, and together they have two young sons, Leo, aged five, and 15-month-old Kit.
Despite the breakdown of their marriage, insiders suggest the couple has parted on extremely friendly terms and are committed to raising their children together as a united family.
The couple have been claimed to have 'grown apart'
|According to a source quoted by The Sun, the couple's marriage came to an end after they gradually drifted apart over time.
"Jake and Sophie have ended their marriage, but they remain incredibly amicable," the source said. "There is still a huge amount of love and respect between them."
The insider explained that their children remain the absolute priority for both parents, adding: "They are fully committed to being the best parents possible."
Following lengthy and candid discussions about their relationship, the pair reportedly decided to focus on building a positive co-parenting arrangement rather than continuing as a couple.
The couple share sons Leo and Kit
|"Maintaining a happy and supportive family unit together is their focus now," the source added.
GB News has contacted Mr Quickenden’s representative for comment.
The couple's romance began in 2018, and after three years together, Mr Quickenden proposed during a family holiday to the Greek island of Rhodes in 2021.
Sharing the happy news on Instagram at the time, he wrote: "SHE SAID YES.... The love of my life, the mother to my beautiful Leo and Freddie, I love you so much... This isn't a drill, it's actually happening." (sic)

The pair exchanged vows in Ibiza, Spain, in September 2022, with Quickenden wearing a suit adorned with medals honouring his late father Paul and brother Oliver, both of whom died from bone cancer.
Following the ceremony, he described Sophie as his "soulmate" and said watching her walk down the aisle was like seeing "an angel."
Mr Quickenden has previously spoken about the difficulties of balancing his career with family life, acknowledging that being away from his young sons can be challenging.
"It's hard. But there's so many parents who have to work away in all lines of work, and it can be tough," he told The Mirror.

|"But we've got FaceTime now which is great, so we get to see their faces every day."
The television personality has said his drive to work stems from wanting to set a good example for Leo and Kit.
"I just want to be a decent role model for my kids," he shared, adding that he hopes his work ethic will influence them positively.
