Cat Deeley, Patrick Kielty Split After 12 Years Marriage

Cat Deeley and Patrick Kielty have announced their separation after 13 years of marriage, emphasizing that there is no third party involved and requesting privacy as they continue to co-parent their two sons. The couple first met in 2002 while co-hosting BBC's Fame Academy, but their romantic relationship began nearly a decade later, culminating in their wedding in Rome in 2012. Over the years, their marriage faced challenges, including work-related strains and recent signs of tension such as Deeley missing Kielty's mother's funeral in March 2025 to care for their children. Both have maintained a low public profile regarding their relationship, with no social media interactions for over a year and a joint statement confirming they will not comment further on the split. The couple relocated from Los Angeles back to the UK in 2023 following safety concerns, notably a gun scare, which influenced their family decisions. Despite the end of their marriage, Deeley and Kielty remain committed to being loving parents to their sons Milo and James.
