UNBELIEVABLE: Patrick Kielty makes surprise THREE-WORD STATEMENT after SPLIT from Cat Deeley that leaves viewers STUNNED

‌

The 54-year-old comedian and the 48-year-old TV host recently confirmed their split after a decade together, sharing a joint statement earlier this week.

Reflecting on his role in their partnership, Patrick revealed during The Mid-Point podcast in July 2023 that he initially believed they were equals in decision-making. He disclosed: “For a long time I genuinely thought I was in a 50/50 partnership. Then you realise you’re actually a junior shareholder in a 50/50 partnership.”

He humorously added, “You go, ‘I thought we were 50/50 – why do you seem to have more shares?’ I think with big decisions you kind of have to float stuff and see how that’s going to go.”

The couple, parents to two boys, Milo, seven, and James, five, had moved from Los Angeles back to London before announcing their separation.

On the topic of relocating to the U.K., Patrick reflected that it was primarily Cat’s preference, especially as she navigated new motherhood without her family nearby. He said: “What was weird about it was it was Cat who more wanted to do that. It was more her decision. I think being a new mom and not having the family around and not having the network of cousins and brothers.”

‌

Patrick also shared his own feelings of displacement, noting: “I think, for me, London is not home. It will never really be home for me. In my head, I still live in a little village in County Down, even though I haven’t lived there full-time for 30 years. These are the tricks you play on yourself.”

Patrick shared that relocating had a minimal effect on him since he was accustomed to traveling to visit his family.

‌

He remarked, “Living in London, my family was always a flight away anyway, so that idea of being a longer flight away from LA wasn’t as much of a problem for me as someone who had to get a flight to go to see them anyway.”

He also discussed Cat’s professional life in the States and noted that her decision to move back was ultimately hers.

Patrick commented: “I also think because Cat was the one with a successful career out there, she was the one who chose to leave that at the right time, and that’s a decision that she made and only she can make.”

‌

When questioned about their current state of happiness, Patrick acknowledged that marriage is an ongoing endeavor.

He continued: “Things were good, but marriage was always something to be worked at.

“The idea of how you work together whenever the rough and the smooth and all those things – that’s the most important part.”

Their joint statement regarding the separation read: “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.”
