They said in a joint statement: “We have taken the decision to end our marriage and are now separated. There is no other party involved.

“We will continue to be united as loving parents to our children and would therefore kindly ask for our family privacy to be respected.

“There will be no further comment.”

Once considered one of the entertainment world’s most enduring couples, Cat and Patrick first met while filming Fame Academy in the early 2000s.

Although their friendship developed over the years, they only began dating later, eventually tying the knot in a private ceremony in Rome.

Cat, who spent more than a decade hosting So You Think You Can Dance in the U.S., continued to juggle work across both sides of the Atlantic.

Speculation about their relationship emerged earlier this year when Cat was absent from Patrick’s mother Mary’s funeral in February.

The This Morning presenter was notably missing from the occasion in Dundrum, Ireland, where Patrick – host of RTE’s Late Late Show – was pictured carrying his mother’s coffin.

A spokesman for Cat told the Mail at the time: “Cat remained at home to be there for her two young children before and after school on this very sad day.”

Cat and Patrick have two sons – Milo, eight, and James, five.

The presenter carried out school drop-offs and pick-ups either side of hosting This Morning alongside Ben Shephard.

Cat previously told how Patrick wooed her by flying all the way from Ireland to LA — just for a brunch.

She said the gesture “knocked my socks off” after the comedian decided to step up their long-term friendship and make a romantic move.

Cat recalled: “It was my birthday and he’d rung me, he was at a pub in Ireland and he’d rung me from the pub.

“Bear in mind it was probably about 2 o’clock in the morning because they’d had a lock-in.”

Cat told him she was having a birthday brunch at Beverly Hills Hotel, to which he said: “I’ll see you there!”

She continued: “He went home, set his alarm for five, got up, went to the airport, flew from Belfast to London, then jumped on the first plane from London to LA, got in a cab, told the cabbie on his way from the airport what he was doing, and the driver was literally like ‘do you want me to wait for you?!'”

The pair first went public with their romance when they walked the red carpet together for Glamour’s Women of the Year awards in 2011.

In an interview on This Morning, Patrick revealed he had “no regrets” about taking so long to romance Cat.

Speaking to Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford, he said things happened exactly as they should: “If we had got together at the start, we could have got on one another’s nerves. All things came at the right time.”

In 2020, Cat said that she moved back to the UK from California after a “terrifying” mall sht1ng left Patrick and their son “shaken”.

In an interview with You magazine, Cat said Patrick and Milo were shopping in the Century City Mall in Los Angeles when FBI agents announced there was a sht3r on the loose.

She said: “I got a call from Paddy, saying, ‘They’re taking us out through the fire exits but nobody can get to their car. If we walk to a junction, can you come and get us?’

“He wanted to keep Milo calm, so I didn’t understand the enormity of what was happening. As I was driving I began to see helicopters, news vans, firemen and SWAT [armed police response] squads.

“It makes me go funny now. It was terrifying… Paddy was shaken by it, more than Milo, who was hot and cranky but didn’t properly understand.”

Cat feels happy to be home after swapping her mansion in Los Angeles for a flat in north London back in 2020.

The Sun exclusively the family had put their 4-bed mansion with a desirable 91210 zip code on the market for a whopping $4,995,000.

A source close to Cat told us: “She still has multiple projects in the works in the US and will be here and there for work, but she will be based in Britain for now.”
