Kym Lomas files for divorce from Jamie, citing 'unreasonable behaviour'

Kym Marsh has filed for divorce from her husband of one year, EastEnders actor Jamie Lomas.

The Coronation Street star has started divorce proceedings citing her husband's unreasonable behaviour, according to the Daily Mirror.

Kym, who plays Michelle Connor in Coronation Street, reportedly moved out of her family home and in with her parents in Runcorn, Cheshire, while Jamie is thought not to have been home since.

The couple have a two-year-old daughter, Polly, and Kym has son a David, 18, and a daughter Emily, 15, from a previous relationship.

Kym married to another EastEnders actor, Jack Ryder, in 2002, but divorced him in 2009 after admitting an affair with Jamie. Jack said he only discovered the affair four months after he split from Kym.
