Vanessa Feltz ‘split from partner Ben Ofoedu’
The Sun reports presenter Vanessa discovered emails and social media messages that led her to uncover several infidelities.
Approached for comment from the tabloid, Vanessa reportedly said: “I had thought it might take a bit longer before this came out, because it’s a lot to deal with — a shock like this takes some adjusting to — but I am extremely sad and disappointed that my 16-year relationship with Ben is over.
“As an agony aunt I have said many times that once the trust in a relationship is gone, it can never be repaired or regained. So I have to take my own advice on this occasion.”

Ben previously said to OK! about their engagement a couple of years ago: “You know what, if it isn’t broken, why fix it?
“In the 14 years Vanessa and I have been together, we’ve seen so many friends get married and after a while we thought, this is working the way it is.
“If we do get married, who knows, but not at the moment.”
