GAVIN and Stacey star Ruth Jones has revealed she’s split from her husband of 26 years.
The actress and writer legally separated from producer David Peet 18 months ago.
He is now living in Canada where he has moved on with someone new.
In a statement, the couple said: “We amicably went our separate ways 18 months ago and are now legally separated. We remain good friends.
“Since our separation, Ruth is living in London and David is living in Canada, where he is in a new relationship.”
Ruth was a step-mum to David’s three children from a previous marriage.
They met while filming a BBC pilot comedy in the 1990s. David was married at the time.
Ruth later said: “Affairs cause a lot of pain; they’re not something one aspires to do.
“You don’t aspire to cause pain to people in their life.”
