Jeff Brazier hinted he might be single, days before his split was reported.
Television presenter, Jeff, 46, has been facing some family struggles recently, as just a few days ago, his son Freddy, 21, admitted he attempted to ‘end it all’ in a car crash.
This comes a month after he revealed that he’s become ‘homeless’ while expecting a child with girlfriend Holly Swinburn amid Freddy and Jeff’s highly-publicised feud.
It has been reported that amid this family turmoil, Jeff and PR guru Kate, 35, have split after seven years of marriage.
The Sun reported that Kate moved out of their marital home three weeks ago and is now living in her flat in Hackney.
She spent the weekend in Las Vegas for the US Grand Prix, while Jeff was working for Good Morning Britain in Reykjavik in Iceland.

Both have been seemingly snapped without their wedding bands while sharing snaps from their travels.
Jeff had actually seemingly hinted at his new life of singledom on his social media.
In a post from the weekend showing the view from his new home, he reportedly shared that he had ‘escaped to the countryside’ and was ‘living in calm’ in a ‘transitional time’.
Despite this going on in his personal life, the presenter has continued to work and appeared on GMB on Monday and Tuesday morning, presenting the daytime TV competition segment of the show – without his wedding ring.
In June, Freddy hinted at an escalating rift with stepmum Kate in a TikTok video. He listed things he ‘hates’ which included: ‘Stepparents, my overthinking, I’m easily manipulated, my family issues.’
He also told followers: ‘I don’t know how to love because I’ve never been loved.’
Jeff and Freddy have been in a highly publicised feud after Jeff launched legal action to block Freddy from seeing his grandmother, Jade’s mum, Jackiey Budden.
Jeff accused the 68-year-old grandmother of being a bad influence on Freddy after pictures emerged of Jackiey and Freddie ‘smoking a joint’ next to the River Thames, as reported by The Sun on Sunday.
Freddy then gave an interview in which he declared he ‘doesn’t want to see’ his dad, and accused him of being image-obsessed without consideration for ‘his own sons’.
Sources said Jeff’s relationship with Freddy is still strained, despite him putting an end to the legal action in August.
Jeff was previously in a relationship with Jade Goody, with the couple splitting in 2004, after having two sons, Bobby, 22, and Freddy. Jade died in 2009 from cervical cancer.
In October 2017, Jeff announced his engagement to Kate and a year later, in September 2018, they tied the knot. They announced they split in December 2022 but rekindled their relationship seven months later.
