Patrick Kielty seen for first time since split from Cat Deeley after 13 years of marriage
Patrick Kielty has been seen for the first time since his sudden split from Cat Deeley after 13 years of marriage. The pair recently announced that they would be going their separate ways after more than a decade together, much to the shock of fans.
However, he has now been spotted out and about as he went to purchase some wine on Saturday. He broke his cover this weekend as he ventured out of his London home and went to a nearby shop.
The 54-year-old went for a casual look as he wore a grey T-shirt along with a pair of jeans and Crocs. He covered his face up with a pair of sunglasses as he carried a shopping bag filled with his purchases. It comes after Cat Deeley found moving back to the UK 'really hard' before split from Patrick Kielty.
Patrick Kielty 'to be in very dark place' if new Cat Deeley fear unravels
Patrick and the This Morning presenter announced last week that they would be ending their marriage. The couple share two sons, Milo, seven and James, five.
They both stressed that "no other party" was involved in the reason for their split. They released a joint statement as they told their fans that they were no longer together.
The pair wrote: "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."
Cat and Patrick first crossed paths when they were both hosting BBC 's Fame Academy together in 2002, but it wasn't until 2011 that they finally decided to take their friendship to a romantic level.
The two tied the knot a year later in September 2012 at a ceremony in Rome. Insiders have since claimed that it was their equally busy work schedules that got in the way and drove a wedge between their marriage.
Cat has hosted ITV 's This Morning alongside Ben Shephard since early last year, and previously lived in Los Angeles for more than 10 years. Meanwhile, Northern Irish presenter Patrick is the host of RTE talk show The Late Late Show, having taken over from Ryan Tubridy in 2023.
Despite living in the UK, Patrick would travel to Dublin every week to present the show from the RTE studios. Due to their clashing schedules, it was reported that it became difficult for Patrick and Cat to spend quality time together.
The source said: "It is such sad news. They were so happy after they moved back to London, and would talk about their grand plans to renovate the house for the family.
"But sadly, as so often happens with relationships, work got in the way and it put a huge strain on the marriage." Cat and Patrick hadn't been pictured together in public for over a year and Cat also missed Patrick's mother's funeral in March but this was put down to the mum-of-two looking after their sons.

Second MasterChef contestant cut from series after scandals
It has been announced that another contestant has been edited out of the latest MasterChef series. Following scandals attached to Gregg Wallace and John Torode, it was announced that major editing would be taking place to the final series. This means that many of the jokes from Torode and Wallace have been edited out of the series, and in some cases, entire contestants. In early August, it was announced that one contestant requested to be edited out as they preferred not to participate following the reports concernig the hosts. It has now been announced that yet another contestant has made the same decision to be cut from the show. A spokesperson for the show's production company, Banijay, said: 'One other contributor decided that given recent events they would like not to be included. 'We have of course, accepted their wishes and edited them out of the show.' In July, an independent report into MasterChef upheld 45 complaints against Wallace, including claims of inappropriate sexual language and one of unwelcome physical contact. A racial language allegation against Torode – which he doesn't recall – was also upheld. The pair were swiftly removed from the show, but after a series had already been filmed withe a new batch of contestants. The BBC chose to air the series, as to not ruin the hardwork put in by the contestants. The BBC's statement read in part: 'After careful consideration and consultation with the contestants, we have decided to broadcast the amateur series of MasterChef on BBC One and BBC iPlayer from 6 August. MasterChef is an amazing competition which is life-changing for the amateur chefs taking part. The focus of it has always been their skill and their journey.' The statement added: 'This has not been an easy decision in the circumstances and we appreciate not everyone will agree with it. In showing the series, which was filmed last year, it in no way diminishes our view of the seriousness of the upheld findings against both presenters. 'We have been very clear on the standards of behaviour that we expect of those who work at the BBC or on shows made for the BBC. 'However, we believe that broadcasting this series is the right thing to do for these cooks who have given so much to the process. We want them to be properly recognised and give the audience the choice to watch the series.' A few weeks ago, it was announced that Sarah Shafi, a former contestant in the show, had asked to be removed from the series. She explained why on ITV's Good Morning Britain: 'For me, it didn't feel as faithful to food as I thought it would be, and at the same time, I felt it was uncomfortable around presenters.' Garraway asked if she was referring to Wallace and his controversial comments last year about 'women of a certain age' making complaints against him. More Trending She replied: 'It wasn't a big deal for me. I'm an older woman and a woman of that certain age, and I can kind of spot that creep, and you just go, I'll just get on with it. 'After I left the show, I think the main thing I felt was relief.' The former contestant explained that it 'isn't about her', adding: 'This isn't about a particular experience, although that gave me insight into the taste of that masculine toxicity, and I thought, I don't want to really be part of that.' View More » In an interview with Newsnight, Shafi also claimed to have been 'eyed up and ogled' by Wallace while appearing on the TV show, adding he had made a 'throwaway comment' about his reputation with women.

Second MasterChef contestant edited out of series after BBC's decision to air despite John Torode & Gregg Wallace axings
CHEF OUT Second MasterChef contestant edited out of series after BBC's decision to air despite John Torode & Gregg Wallace axings Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A SECOND contestant has been edited out of the latest series of MasterChef following the scandal surrounding its former hosts. The aspiring chef, who asked not to be identified, didn't want to appear on the show given "recent events".

Sarah Shafi was the first contestant to pull out of the show after telling producers it shouldn't be aired. The episode which would have featured the unnamed contestant was broadcast on BBC One on Wednesday. But it only featured five chefs rather than the usual six, the BBC reported. Sarah, from Leeds, believed airing Masterchef would send the wrong message about what happens after women report misbehaviour by powerful men. The 57-year-old rejected an offer by MasterChef's producers Banijay to edit her out of her episode, wanting them to axe it entirely. She was "flabbergasted" by the suggestion, but agreed once it was announced the series would air. She told The Guardian: "I said: 'Axe the show, don't air the show. I'm asking you not to air the show.' "Prominent figures have been abusing their power. What message does that send out to women?" The former contestant said she didn't want to be part of a show with an "enabling environment". It was said to be "quite a heated conversation". A spokesperson for production company Banijay said: "One other contributor decided that given recent events they would like not to be included," the BBC reports. "We have of course accepted their wishes and edited them out of the show." The latest series of MasterChef was hit with controversy in the weeks leading up to its launch, with hosts Gregg Wallace and John Torode being axed from presenting future series. However, the BBC ultimately decided to air series 21, which had already been filmed. The latest episode - the fourth in its run - saw five amateur cooks enter the kitchen, rather than the usual six. But the long shot of the group outside walking towards the kitchen was missing, and instead, the edit featured close ups of their faces or in pairs. Once inside, John and Gregg explained how two cooks would automatically go through to the next round after cooking their first dish. In a bizarre moment, contestant Hazel gave a thankful nod before looking to the side, but as far as viewers could see, there was no one on Hazel's left that she would need to acknowledge. A spokesperson for Banijay previously said: "As we said when we announced the show would be aired, this was not an easy decision in the circumstances and we appreciate not everyone would agree with it. "Banijay consulted with all the contestants before that decision was made and there was widespread support for it going ahead. "The focus of the series is the contestants, as it always is. "The edit has been looked at in light of the upheld findings." More to follow...
