Privacy Notice Just a few weeks after Martine McCutcheon revealed her shock split from husband Jack McManus, the actress has posted a stream of cryptic posts referencing everything from boundaries to narcissists. The couple, who share a child together, ended their 18-year marriage last month – and in a statement shared on social media, the EastEnders star hinted that parting ways was for the best. The musician was recently spotted without his wedding ring. Taking to Instagram today (Saturday, September 7), the 48 year old reposted several cryptic posts and clips all relating to still living a fulfilled life regardless of what you have been through. One post read, “She looked at her old life, one last time, inhaled deeply, and whispered to herself, ‘It is time. I am ready for my new story to begin’,” Another said: “Your boundaries are not making you lose friends or family members. Your boundaries are making you lose gas lighters, emotional abusers, needy and greedy manipulators, self-centred narcissists and energy draining vampires. Keep standing up for yourself, You’re doing great, keep going.”

In her official statement about the split last month, Martine told fans that Jack decided to end their marriage and she had accepted his decision. She wrote: “After much thought and consideration, Jack has decided it’s best for us to separate after 18 years together and I accept his decision. We are both so very blessed and grateful for our beautiful, nine-year-old son Rafferty, whose happiness and welfare has always been, and will continue to be, our number one priority. We both of course still cherish and look forward to being parents together to our wonderful boy for the rest of our lives.” During a candid chat on Loose Women back in 2016, Martine discussed her relationship with Jack, admitting that marriages could be hard. “I think actually my friends have saved my relationship a couple of times!,” she shared. “There have been times without a doubt I’ve been with Jack ten years now and of course we’ve had our ups and downs a tough eight years out of ten bless him.”

They’ve been like ‘calm down, you really love him, you two are meant to be together, stick at it’. Nowadays more than ever people just chuck in the towel everything’s so disposable now.” Martine and Jack first met in 2007 and went on to tie the knot five years later in a stunning Lake Como wedding before welcoming Rafferty in 2015. The shock break-up came just weeks after the star, who found fame as barmaid Tiffany in EastEnders in the 1990s, paid tribute to him on his 40th birthday, gushing that she loved him “unconditionally”. She added of Jack, who recently lost his dad Mick, “Like your dad, have touched so many hearts with your love and kindness. You make life better for so many.” Story SavedYou can find this story in My Bookmarks.Or by navigating to the user icon in the top right.Follow OK!
