Loose Women’s Andrea McLean separates from second husband

While Loose Women's Denise Welch has been busy flashing on Celebrity Big Brother, her co-presenter Andrea McLean has separated from her husband, she's revealed today.

The 42-year-old TV host told the Mirror she is full of guilt following the end of her marriage to Steve Toms, saying: "I tried for a year to save our marriage. I tried so hard."

She said: "Steve and I had grown apart and we both knew it. We'd tried so many times to make it work, but it was hopeless. We held it together over Christmas for the kids but then on Boxing Day I took them to stay with my parents — and that was the end."

Andrea has two children, Finlay, 10 from her first marriage, and Amy, five from her second marriage.

She added: "I've only ever slept with two men and I married them both. I've always been choosy and never played the field but now here I am… a single mum with two children by two different husbands and two failed marriages behind me. I feel I have let my children down. They don't deserve this."

Andrea's childhood sweetheart, Nick Green filed for divorce after Andrea had an affair with Steve in 2003. She met builder Steve while filming UKTV home makeover show Our House.

The presenter revealed: "On my first Loose Women show of the New Year the topic was, 'Why do marriages break down at Christmas.' I just wanted to burst out crying, but somehow I got through.

"I'd kept my marriage problems to myself and only Sherrie Hewson saw through my brave face. But I've explained everything now and I know the ladies will all be there for me."
