Fearne Cotton announces split from husband Jesse Wood

Fearne Cotton and her spouse Jesse Wood have ended their marriage after a decade together.

In a post on Instagram on Friday, the 43-year-old TV and radio host shared, "I regret to inform you all that Jesse and I have decided to part ways in our marriage."

She emphasized that their children will always come first.

Cotton tied the knot with Wood, the son of Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood, in 2014, just one year after they revealed their engagement.

The couple has a son named Rex and a daughter named Honey. Wood also has two kids from a prior relationship.

In her Instagram update, Cotton shared, "We kindly request that you honor our family's privacy during this time."

Last week, Cotton provided a health update following her surgery to take out two non-cancerous tumors from her jaw.

In an Instagram update, she expressed her gratitude that the conditions are non-cancerous and mentioned that she plans to take some time to recover before the holiday season.

Cotton began their career in television during the 1990s, hosting programs aimed at children.

She became part of BBC Radio 2 in 2016, where she is recognized for hosting the Sounds Of The 90s program.

In 2017, she opened up about her battle with depression in her latest book, Happy.

During an interview back then, she shared some useful tips on how to handle the situation and acknowledged that her real life is quite different from what she shows on social media.

She is the host of the Happy Place podcast, where she has spoken with various celebrities, including actor David Tennant from film and television.
