Example, 42, also shares two children, Evander and Ennio, with his ex-wife Erin McNaught. The pair went their separate ways in 2022 after 11 years of marriage and continue to co-parent their sons.
Sharing the news, a statement at the time read: “At the start of the UK summer we decided to separate. We have had an amazing 11 years together, but just a few too many adventures.
“Obviously we spent a lot of time behind the scenes trying to figure things out, but we came to the realisation that perhaps our time as a couple had just come to a natural end.
“So we have decided to go our separate ways whilst there is still an abundance of love and respect for one another. We have been Co-parenting happily and effectively now for almost half a year and our boys are surrounded with love.”
The pair added: “If you see us out and about together it’s still the same old Elliot & Erin. Though we spend a lot of our time apart we still enjoy time together climbing, jogging, cinema, chasing kids around the park or getting coffee. Expect to see us out and about together with our children often. This is as amicable as it gets.
“Nobody is blaming anyone in all this. We are very happy that this is the right decision and hope that others can respect this too.”
