Chloe Madeley and James Haskell's Separation Journey

Chloe Madeley has opened up about the difficult end to her marriage with James Haskell, describing the last year as 'awful', 'dark', and 'painful'. Despite the societal perception of divorce as negative, Madeley views the separation positively, emphasizing that the hardest part was being married rather than the divorce itself. She refrains from discussing specific reasons for the split to shield her daughter Bodhi from these experiences. Chloe's parents, Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan, have been supportive, encouraging her decision to prioritize personal happiness. Both Chloe and James, who married in 2018 and separated in 2023, have stressed the importance of co-parenting their daughter with love amidst the changes. Their separation statement was made public due to media speculation, even though they had not planned to disclose it at that time.
