Helen and Richie family home claims

According to MailOnline, the home has eight bedrooms, six bathrooms, four reception rooms an annexe, and an outdoor heated swimming pool. The property is said to be comprised of two homes connected together.

Furthermore, it is set in two acres with landscaped south-facing gardens, and also comes with garage space for four cars.

A source claimed to the tabloid: “The properties are in both Helen and Richie’s names so they will obviously have to work out what to do with the money they make from the sale.

It’s another sign that Helen is moving on with her life.

“But it’s another sign that Helen is moving on with her life and the fact that she stands to make a substantial profit is a small bonus during what has been a difficult time. A lot of love and thought went into creating this home and I’m sure it will be difficult for her to sell it.”

ED! has contacted representatives for Helen Skelton for comment on MailOnline’s claims.
