The former Blue Peter face previously announced her split from rugby league ace in April 2022 as she revealed he left the family home.
Just four months after Helen gave birth to her third child Elsie, he walked out of their nine-year marriage.
The duo turned two adjacent houses into a lavish eight bedroom dream home just months before their relationship came to an end.
However, the property was put on the market for £1.8million just weeks after the split.
The MailOnline reported that Helen hoped to make £500,000 from the sale.
Now, the publication reports that the former couple have divided up their properties once again, amid her new romance.
They sold the first home they bought in January 2020 for half a million pounds, despite the fact it was listed at nearly £900,000.
It is described as a 'link detached house' with four bedrooms that was given a modern makeover by the pair.
This was after the duo moved into the period house, which reported to have been sold, subject to contract.
Other features include a modern open-plan kitchen and living room that contain exposed beams and vaulted ceilings.
Gethin Jones and Helen Skelton's romance heats up as they're seen at spa
The spacious room - which comes with a log burner - has plentiful access to south facing gardens.
On the ground floor, other rooms include a snug, a dining room for guests and a bedroom with its own ensuite toilet.
The two bedrooms on the first floor provide ample space, as the master suite has its own ensuite bathroom and large dressing area.
Outdoors, the property boasts a heated swimming pool as well as an annexe with its own bathroom, which could serve as either a guest house or a 'summer entertainment space'
The outlet also reports that the couple still own a second property they bought in 2021 for £635,000.
This comes after we reported that the relationship of Helen, 41, relationship with co-star Gethin, 47, continued to heat up in recent weeks as they grew ever closer off screen.
The duo were spotted looking loved up as they headed to a country club and spa.
He reportedly took his alleged new partner to a wellness venue near his home as he surprised onlookers with their flirty antics.
An insider told The Sun: "Gethin and Helen were all over each other.
"They are clearly super comfortable with each other and it wasn't just like two friends hanging out."
Our mole added: "Helen was really laughing and smiling as they spent time together before heading off in the late afternoon."

Last batch of rare final Queen Elizabeth II £1 coins entering circulation

The final batch of Queen Elizabeth II £1 coins are entering circulation across the UK, the Royal Mint has announced. More than 23 million Queen coins are being released alongside 7.5 million new King Charles III £1 coins. The Royal Mint said the last of the Elizabeth II coins, dated 2022, are the rarest £1 coins in active circulation. The historic transition – with the dual release of almost 31 million coins – represents a significant moment for UK coinage, as the nation witnesses the changeover from Britain's longest-reigning monarch to her son and heir on the £1 denomination, the Royal Mint said. The Queen's £1 coins will be the final ones bearing Elizabeth II's portrait to enter circulation. Rebecca Morgan, director of commemorative coin at the Royal Mint, said: 'This release represents a pivotal moment in British coinage history. 'As we release more of the King Charles III £1 coins into circulation alongside the final coins of Queen Elizabeth II, we're witnessing the physical representation of our monarchy's transition. 'This dual release creates an exceptional opportunity for both seasoned numismatists and those new to coin collecting.' The Royal Mint is encouraging the public to check its change over the coming weeks, as the new coins begin to appear in pockets and tills across the nation. Ms Morgan added: 'Finding these new coins in your change could spark a rewarding hobby that connects you with the heritage, history and craftsmanship behind British currency.' Since the introduction of the King's effigy on UK coinage in 2023, the 50p and £1 are the only denominations with Charles's portrait to have entered circulation so far. The King's £1 coins feature an intricate bee design on the reverse and are part of the Definitive collection, inspired by the flora and fauna of the British Isles. Some 2.975 million £1s with the King's effigy were released in August last year. In total, there are around 24.7 billion coins in circulation across the UK, with the King's coins representing only around 0.004% of those, making his new coins highly desirable to collectors. All UK coins bearing the Queen's portrait will remain legal tender and in active circulation to allow a smooth transition and minimise the environmental impact and cost.
