Loose Women star Linda Robson has confirmed she has split from her husband Mark Dunford after 33 years together.

The 65-year-old ITV star shared the news that she is single with Woman magazine, admitting: “He’s a really good dad and we had some good years, but enough is enough.

“I’ve got my family and my kids around me. And I’m going on a cruise with Lesley Joseph in November.

“I’m keeping busy. I feel fine. I’m just going away on trips all the time,” she added.

“I’m not interested [in dating] honestly. I can’t be a***d with all that.” 

Linda previously hinted that her relationship may have hit a rocky patch this summer, telling the Sun at the time: “Every relationship goes through its ups and downs. It’s not bad, we’re doing alright.”

Linda and Mark share two children together: singer-songwriter son Louis, 31, and daughter Roberta, 27.

Before tying the knot with Mark in 1990, Linda was in a relationship with Tony Tyler for 11 years, welcoming their eldest child Lauren in 1983.

Linda shocked Loose Women viewers earlier this year after confessing to not having sex for the last two years. 

“Can I just say I’ve been celibate for two years?” she said, before revealing co-star Denise Welch had gifted her something special in light of this information. 

“You got me a lady friend,” she quipped cheekily, as Denise acknowledged that she had indeed.

Speaking about her relationship at the time, she said: “I can’t be a**** with all that [romance stuff].

“I’m just happy going out with my mates and my children and my grandchildren.

“If I’ve got three or four days off work, I’ll just go to Mallorca. I’ll get a flight out there. Stay in a hotel hopefully full of Germans so no-one will recognise me and just have a nice relaxing time.

“I just love sitting on the sun bed, round the pool, on the beach, reading a book. I would like to take a cruise round the world on my own.”
