The former couple had been married since 2012, and their split has left Amy heartbroken and 'crying everyday' since separating before Christmas. It's been reported the soap star learned of the infidelity after she discovered her husband had been staying in London hotels near to their home.
“He was away a lot, which wasn’t unusual because of the nature of his work, but at one point Amy realised he had been staying in hotels very near to home — and wondered why,” they told The Sun.
“As time moved on, there were some tell-tale signs that he had become close to Leila — just something in his mannerisms and in their social media posts together. But the final straw was the lingerie — that’s what clinched it.”
The star has reportedly struggling following the split as she navigates her broken heart. “It has broken Amy, it has been so dreadfully sad to see,” a friend told MailOnline.
“She got wind that something was going on and she knew she had to say something so she confronted Andrew about it. It must have been the most difficult thing Amy has ever had to do.”
Another added to the publication: "It's been very hard for Amy. She's been crying virtually every day since it happened and she's struggling to cope with things. She can't even bring herself to talk about it as she's still trying to make sense of it all."
