Martine McCutcheon Announces Separation from Husband Jack McManus After 18 Years Together

Martine McCutcheon, 48, has announced her separation from husband Jack McManus, 40, after 18 years together, including 12 years of marriage. The couple, who wed in a picturesque ceremony in Lake Como, Italy, in 2012, are parents to a nine-year-old son, Rafferty.

McCutcheon, known for her roles in “Love Actually” and “EastEnders,” shared the news on Instagram while on holiday in Marbella, Spain, with their son. In her heartfelt statement, she revealed that McManus made the decision to end their marriage, a choice she has accepted. She emphasized that their focus will remain on their son’s happiness and well-being, asking for privacy and support during this challenging time.

McManus, a musician, broke his silence shortly after, stating that he had nothing further to add beyond McCutcheon’s announcement. The couple’s £1.5 million Surrey home has been on the market since May, suggesting the decision to separate had been under consideration for some time.

The news of their split came as a shock to many, including family members and neighbors who were unaware of any issues in the relationship. Jack’s aunt described the separation as “very sudden” and difficult for the family, especially in light of the recent loss of Jack’s father.

Despite the heartbreak, McCutcheon expressed her unwavering support for McManus, wishing him love and happiness in his future. She also reassured fans that she and McManus will continue to co-parent Rafferty with love and care.

The announcement follows a series of social media posts by McCutcheon, including a poignant message about heartbreak just before the news broke. In recent months, she had also shared a touching birthday tribute to McManus, reflecting on the challenges they had faced together, including the passing of his father.

As McCutcheon and McManus transition into this new chapter, McCutcheon has requested privacy for their family, particularly for their son, as they adjust to life apart.
