Former Strictly Come Dancing star Helen Skelton is reportedly feeling “guilty” after “dipping her toe into the dating scene” a year after splitting her her rugby star ex-husband Richie Myler
Strictly Come Dancing star Helen Skelton is said to be feeling “guilty” after “dipping her toe back into the dating scene” a year after her marriage ended.
Last year, in April, Helen announced that she and England and Leeds Rhinos rugby star Richie Myler, 33, had decided to go their separate ways. The couple, who tied the knot in December 2013, share three children together – sons Ernie and Louis and daughter Elsie.
In a brief statement confirming their split, Helen said that she and Richie were “no longer a couple” and that “he’d left the family home.” In an interview with the Northern Echo, she later opened up about her marriage and said: “Marriages and relationships are not all plain sailing, but we approach it like teamwork.” Five months later, Helen went on to appear on Strictly Come Dancing and eventually landed a coveted spot in the final alongside her partner Gorka Marquez.
Since then, the Countryfile presenter and mum-of-three has been busy presenting on Morning Live, filming a new show with former Strictly co-star and Channel 5’s Dan Walker, and enjoying trips abroad with her three kids as a single parent. After putting her dating life on hold, Helen has recently launched herself back into the dating scene. However, the decision has reportedly left the presenter “feeling guilty”, according to Closer Magazine.
