Michael Le Vell marriage split, Coronation Street star Michael Le Vell has reportedly split from his wife of 25 years.


The 46-year-old soap actor, who is currently battling child sex abuse allegations, is claimed to have separated from Janette Beverley prior to his recent arrest.

A source last night told The Sun: "It's very sad, but they are estranged and have been for a while. This police investigation comes on top of everything else.

"It's been the worst time of Michael's life."

The paper reports that Le Vell parted company with childhood sweetheart Janette just months before the sex allegations surfaced.

A renowned family man, Michael is said to be in "complete shock" over the marriage breakdown.

The insider added: "Michael has always been brilliant as a husband and dad and has never courted the celebrity lifestyle.

"The fact that his marriage is on the rocks has come as a complete shock."

So far, there has been no official comment from Le Vell.
