Kevin McCloud has 'found love again'

The pair are yet to publicly discuss their marriage breakdown but a representative for Kevin told the Daily Mail at the time: "I can confirm that, sadly, Kevin and Suzanna separated. We won't be making any further comment."

The former couple met when Kevin was in his thirties and tied the knot in 1996, just a few years before he got his big break on Grand Designs. They share two children, Milo and Elsie. Kevin also has two children, Hugo and Grace, from previous relationships.

Kevin and Suzanna were an incredibly private couple, with Kevin previously explaining to the Daily Mail: "I don’t think I’m a celebrity. If I welcomed people into my lovely home every week in the pages of a magazine they’d soon see how incredibly dull it is.

"It’s important to maintain a bit of mystique. The more of your private life you put into the public domain, the smaller your private life becomes."
