Jeff Brazier has reportedly separated from wife Kate Dwyer after seven years. The TV star, 46, has ditched his wedding ring, appearing without it on ITV’s Good Morning Britain on Monday.
PR guru Kate, 35, has also appeared without her rings. She spent the weekend at the US Grand Prix in Las Vegas, and posted a selfie in which her wedding and engagement ring appeared to have been replaced with another ring.
She is said to have moved out of their home three weeks ago and is now living in her apartment in Hackney. Sources told The Sun that the pair had “a stressful year” involving issues with Freddy Brazier – Jeff’s son with tragic ex-Big Brother star Jade Goody.

Jade died of cancer in 2009, and Jeff has raised their sons Bobby Jack and Freddy.
Freddy has hinted at a rift with Kate in social media posts. In one TikTok, he listed things he “hates”, including “Step parents”.
Back in March, Jeff was reported to have launched legal action to block Freddy from seeing his gran, Jade’s mum Jackiey Budden. Jeff is since believed to have backed out of the legal action.
Freddy recently announced he and girlfriend Holly Swinburn are expecting a baby.
A source said of Jeff and Kate to The Sun: ““It’s been an incredibly stressful year for all of them. It’s been one thing after another. The pressure they’re under has exposed the weaknesses in their marriage and it’s become too much.
“Kate has told friends she’s had enough. She left three weeks ago and is now living in an apartment in London.”
Jeff dropped hints that his marriage could be over in online posts over the weekend.
He shared a snap of the view from his new home and wrote: “After three years in the commuter belt to make things easy for everyone else, it was when I ultimately became a storage facility that I realised it was time to suit myself and open fields make me happy.”
He added: “I wanted to be in a home that felt like a calm retreat for my soon-extended family. I realised some time ago that success equals peace and I’ve found the perfect environment for what feels like a transitional time in all our lives.”
In another emotional post he wrote: “Things don’t just change on their own, we have to design the life we want.”
In her selfie from Las Vegas, Kate wrote: “Possibly one of the best days of my life.”
She then reposted a video entitled “recap of 2025” with a clip of Johnny Depp saying: “What the f*** was that.”
