After meeting on the set of Hotel Babylon, Helen and Oliver married in 2012. But sadly late on Tuesday night, her spokesperson confirmed she was no longer with her husband.

‘I can confirm that Helen separated from her husband some time ago’ they said.

The Curse of Strictly has seen many famous couples fail under the stress and strain of its lights, including Countdown star Rachel Riley, 27, who split from her husband Jamie Gilbert after her stint on the show.

Caroline Flack also split from her boyfriend Jack Street after she starred on the programme, while Ben Cohen and Kristina Rihanoff continue to make headlines - after his marriage fell apart months after being paired with the dancer.
