Cat Deeley addresses ’50-50′ parenting with ex Patrick Kielty one year after split — Cat Deeley has explained what co-parenting looks like in the wake of her split from husband Patrick Kielty last year.
The pair announced their separation in July 2025, after 12 years of marriage.
During that time, Patrick, 55, and the former CD:UK host, 49, had welcomed two sons together – Milo in 2016 and James in 2018.
In a joint statement, Cat and Patrick communicated that their focus would be on their two children.
‘We have taken the decision to end our marriage and are now separated. There is no other party involved. We will continue to be united as loving parents to our children and would therefore kindly ask for our family privacy to be respected. There will be no further comment,’ the statement read.
Now one year on, Cat has shared an insight into how post-breakup parenting works for them both.
Describing the situation as ’50-50,’ Cat told The Times that it was ‘about being as organised as you can possibly be.’
‘I have an amazing nanny too,’ she added, sharing that ‘everybody’s doing their best.’
Joined in the interview by This Morning co-host Ben Shephard, he interjected: ‘I look back now, and I realise I struggled with my dad, through my teenage years particularly. We’re very, very different people. But I just realised how hard they were working and trying to make it work for us. As Cat says, they were just doing their best.’
Cat currently lives in London, where she and Ben have co-hosted the popular ITV breakfast show since 2024. Meanwhile, Patrick divides his time between London and Dublin, where he presents the long-running talk show The Late Late Show.
Returning to the series last September, he briefly alluded to the end of his marriage when he thanked the audience for their ongoing support.
‘One of the greatest joys of hosting this show is that you’re never alone,’ he said in an emotional opening speech.
Cat and Patrick first met in 2002, while hosting the BBC reality show Fame Academy. The pair remained friends for a decade before announcing that they had become a couple in March 2012.
A year later, they married during an intimate ceremony at a 17th-century chapel in Rome.
The couple separated seven years after welcoming their second child together, confirming that ‘no other party was involved’ in their break-up.
