“We are living separately,” Henderson told Confidential yesterday.
“I remain close to the family home and we made that decision to ensure our daughter’s routine stays the same.

“It was important to us this continues for Kitty, as we wanted to keep her routine as consistent as possible.
“We both get to enjoy time with her each day and our number one focus is ensuring there is as little disruption to her routine as possible.”

Henderson revealed the split this week.
