MARTINE McCutcheon has reduced the asking price of her home in order for a faster sell following her split from husband Jack McManus. Martine and Jack shocked fans in August when they revealed they had split after more than 18 years together, being married for 12.

The break-up shocked fans even further as it came just days after Martine posted a loved-up birthday tribute to Jack, with her confirming that he was one to walk out. Now, in a bid for a fresh start, the pair have slashed the price of their £1.5million home in order to speed up the sale.

The Surrey pad is now going for £1.25million - putting the pair at a half-million pound loss from when they first bought it in 2022. The couple had initially put the house up for sale in May, three months before they announced they had gone their separate ways.

Ex-EastEnders star and Perfect Moment singer Martine revealed on BBC Radio’s Woman’s Hour that Jack left after their marriage came under strain, made worse when she became reclusive. She was also diagnosed with ADD – but admits she found herself denying the diagnosis to begin with.

Martine - who also has ME (chronic fatigue syndrome) - was struggling to get out of bed after her sibling LJ - Laurence John - passed away with "no medical explanation" at the age of 31 in 2022. She explained: “I didn’t want to answer my phone. I didn’t want to answer the front door, go outside and I would panic out of nowhere and have to pull over when I was driving because I felt this huge fear and couldn’t breathe.”.
