The couple's shocking split comes four months after the pair welcomed their third child. The pair also have another two children together.
We took a look into Helen and Richie's eight-year marriage from when they met to having children, as the pair have decided to call it quits.
Helen met Richie when he was just 21, and the couple quickly fell for one another and went on to date for two years before Richie popped the question to Helen, back in March 2012.
The loved-up pair wasted no time and tied the knot in December 2013 with a stunning ceremony at Kirkby Thore's St Michael's church, in the village where Helen originally hails from.
Many of the local residents gathered at the church alongside the couple's friends and family to wish them well.
In June 2015 the pair announced the birth of their first child together, Ernie, and shortly after the family relocated to France as Richie started playing for Catalan Dragons.
Two years later, the couple's second son, Louis, was born and later that year they moved to Leeds with their two sons after Richie signed a deal with Yorkshire club Leeds Rhinos.
They have a stunning home in Leeds - which Richie has now moved out from - with Helen regularly sharing snaps of their family home on Instagram.
The TV stars, who keep their followers updated on social media, announced that they were expecting their third child back in September 2021 and later gave birth to a baby girl in December who she and Richie named Elsie Kate.
The 38-year-old has continued to share snaps of their adorable baby daughter, with the family of five recently enjoying a sun-soaked holiday together during the Easter break.
Helen last posted a snap alongside her husband in February to mark Valentine's Day, and they appeared loved-up as they posed for a sweet selfie together.
But the TV presenter took to her Instagram Stories on today (April 26) to reveal that she and Richie had called it quits, but the dad-of-three is yet to address the split.
