Vanessa reveals split
The star was devastated as she revealed the news of her and Ben’s split in a video on Instagram last month.
She said: “Well I haven’t been on Instagram for three weeks. And that’s because my relationship with Ben is over after 16 years. And I honestly didn’t know what to say to you on Instagram.
“But now it’s clear that it’s over. And I really do feel that once the trust in a relationship is gone, you can’t really get it back.
“I just wanted to say that obviously I feel incredibly sad and pretty disappointed and shocked. But also full of resolve.”
