Mum-of-two Fearne was typically hip for the morning outing in a comfortable fleece, scarf and ankle-length jeans. She was joined by daughter, Honey, and looked content despite the marital issues. The former Celebrity Juice star revealed she and Jess had called time on their 10 year marriage in an Instagram statement last week.

It took fans, who believed the seemingly loved-up pair were as happy as ever, totally by surprise. Now an insider believes the pair drifted apart after Happy Place podcast host Fearne fell deeper into the wellness rabbit hole. A pal told the Mail: "They are a lovely couple, but Fearne has changed a lot since they got together.

"She was a kind of rock chick when they first met and now she has turned into a bit of a hippy dippy therapy type.". Fearne and Jesse met in Ibiza in 2011 shortly after his divorce from first wife Tilly. They recalled how they hit it off on a date filled with cigarettes and vodka when they were both at their hedonistic peak.

But in the years since then, recovering alcoholic Jesse has gone teetotal and Fearne has turned her back on her hard-partying ways to focus more on family and spirituality. The sudden end to their marriage comes just days after the author revealed she had found two tumours on her jawline.
