Jeremy Kyle’s wife has been granted a divorce in just 20 seconds.
Carla Germaine, 40 – who split from the TV presenter last September – was granted a decree nisi – which will see their 13-year marriage legally dissolved in just six weeks and one day – on the grounds of unreasonable behaviour at London’s Central Family Court on Thursday morning (11.02.16).
The ‘Jeremy Kyle Show’ host, 50 – who is known for fixing guests’ twisted love lives on his daytime programme – married Carla in 2002 after they met three years prior on a radio show.
The former couple, who have children Alice, 12, Ava, nine, and Henry, six, together, announced their split in September last year.
Jeremy said at the time: "After 13 years of a generally happy marriage, my wife and I, Carla, have separated amicably."
However, shortly after the announcement, reports began to circulate suggesting the blonde beauty had met with hunky England polo player James Carr, 25, up to 20 times while Jeremy was away filming in the US.
James claimed he bedded Carla in the space of "six or seven meetings" and embarked on a sexual relationship from June last year, just a month before Jeremy’s 50th birthday.
However, sources close to the estranged couple later stated it wasn’t Carla’s alleged affair that had caused the marriage to breakdown but, instead, Jeremy’s misdemeanours.
Jeremy also has 24-year-old daughter Harriet from his first marriage with Kirsty Rowley.
