Richie Myler and Helen Skelton: Relationship timeline explored as couple's divorce gets finalized

Helen Skelton and Richie Myler's divorce has been finalized after a long process that started with their split two years ago. Helen and Richie tied the knot in 2013 and are the parents of three kids. Metro reported that a source close to the matter also confirmed the news and added:

"Their marriage was declared over at the end of December, so finally both parties can move on and start the New Year afresh."

Helen officially announced her separation from her Richie in April 2022 through Instagram, saying that she and Richie are "no longer a couple."

Furthermore, she also revealed that Richie has already left the family residence and they would be contributing as much as they can to co-parent their children.

The television presenter later addressed the separation in an interview with The Mirror in October of the same year. She began by saying that she and Richie have not reconciled and are avoiding each other. She continued:

"We say this is the dream as we have breakfast, lunch and dinner together but then look after the kids in shifts. You appreciate the other in this situation. I don't think he'll ever say again: 'What do you do with the kids all day?'"

Helen Skelton mentioned that she and Richie were taking care of their kids since two of her children had a habit of staying up late in the night.

She also spoke to The Telegraph about the problems she had to undergo while making friends, saying that it was not easy for her due to her husband's rugby career and they had to shift frequently.
