The devestating news comes shortly after Kym’s marriage to husband Scott Ratcliff ended in March.
Kym and Scott married in October 2021 in a star-studded bash, but the pair called it quits after just 19 months of marriage, according to claims.
According to The Mirror, the couple reportedly split due to “work commitments” and tried to fight for their relationship despite seeing each other for only one or two days a week.
Kym seemingly addressed the split for the first time in an interview with The Guardian, as she touched on “resilience” she has learned following her failed marriages.
Scott was Kym’s third husband after she previously tied the knot with soap actor Jack Ryder in 2002 and Hollyoaks icon Jamie Lomas in 2012.
