Rochelle Humes has thanked her husband Marvin for his unwavering support while she is training for the London Marathon. The mum-of-two said Marvin was her "biggest cheerleader" in a post revealing that her gruelling training routine had driven her to tears on Tuesday.

Sharing a photo of herself wiping her eyes during a run while Marvin affectionately pats her shoulder and smiles, Rochelle told fans: "No one said training for the LDN Marathon would be easy!!! @pmacfitness caught the actual moment I had a little cry on today's run… I really wasn't feeling very positive today, to top it off it was chucking it down. Thanks to my Hubby for always being my biggest cheerleader. Although in this picture I'm sure he's laughing at me. I'm running for @teenage_cancer if you wanna sponsor me it would be much appreciated."

The 28-year-old posted a snap of herself and Peter smiling mid-run, and told her 1.1 million Instagram followers: "They say after every bad run comes a good one and, today was good. Thanks @pmacfitness for giving me that much needed push (don't watch the sweaty face and hair mask)."
