The EastEnders star, 48, and Jack, 40, first got together back in the early 2000s. The pair tied the knot in 2012, and welcomed son Rafferty in 2015.

However, Martine has now revealed she and Jack are no longer together – saying it was his decision to end things.

Taking to her Instagram Story on Thursday (August 22 ) Martine issued a lengthy statement confirming her shock split.

“After much thought and consideration, Jack has decided it’s best for us to separate after 18 years together and I accept his decision,” Martine told her 620k fans.

“We are both so very blessed and grateful for our beautiful, 9-year-old son Rafferty, whose happiness and welfare has always been, and will continue to be, our number 1 priority.”

Martine went on: “We both, of course, still cherish and look forward to being parents together to our wonderful boy for the rest of our lives.

Many thanks in advance for your respect and support, at this difficult time

“Whilst this decision has evolved over a period of time, we are still finding our new way forward as a family and kindly ask for some privacy at this time… Especially for our little boy.

“Our love for Rafferty is something that will never, waver, or change and we obviously want to protect him and help him feel as safe and secure as possible.

“Many thanks in advance for your respect and support at this difficult time… And I continue to send Jack all the love, luck and happiness for the next chapter of his. Rafferty and I (as always) are rooting for you! Thank you all, for the love and support, now and always… Martine xx.”
