Rebecca Adlington, the former Olympic swimmer, has announced that she and her husband Harry Needs have split after just 18 months of marriage following a series of rows since the birth of their first child.
The 27-year-old double gold medallist said the separation from fellow ex-swimmer Needs, 24, was “on amicable terms” and insisted the pair “remain close friends”.
The couple tied the knot in August 2014 at a rural wedding venue in Staffordshire and Adlington gave birth to their daughter in June last year.
