She said they would remain under the same roof to keep a sense of normality for the kids.
But it is now believed that the close proximity has helped the couple to reignite the romance and they are now doing 'all it takes' to try to make it work.
A close source said: 'They went through a really rocky patch and decided to call it a day. It had been difficult for a long time and Alesha just couldn't see a way forward.
'AZ even moved out to a hotel for a while, despite the fact they were co-parenting.
'But there is still a huge amount of feeling between them. They've been together for 12 years and have two beautiful children.
'So they have decided to give it one last try. They both desperately want to be a family again and are going to do all it takes to make it work.
'But Alesha's friends aren't convinced it will last. Ultimately, none of their problems have been fixed, so it's going to be tough.'
Previously Alesha had been spotted on a girls' break in Jamaica as she tried to navigate the rough patch with Azuka.
Over the weekend, he posted a video on Instagram of their eldest daughter at a bowling alley.
Former Mis-Teeq singer Alesha and Azuka met following her short-lived marriage to So Solid Crew rapper MC Harvey in 2005 after he confessed to an affair with singer Javine Hylton.

Choreographer and creative director Azuka was hired as a dancer for her singing tour.
Talking about their relationship, Alesha had said she 'played hard to get' before suffering an injury that Azuka nursed her through.
She added: 'I had a foot operation and I couldn't walk. He was literally sleeping on the floor, looking after me every day. I was looking at him thinking, 'That is for better or for worse isn't it?''
Alesha is currently filming the live semi-finals of Britain's Got Talent.
Saturday's first semi was criticised by fans after unexpected winners and losers.

The presenter's iconic show, Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over, is returning to the UK very soon for series six. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Stacey Dooley has left fans totally divided after announcing Lily Phillips as the star of her new TV series Credit: U&Original 4 The first episode of the sixth series of Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over will follow the controversial OnlyFans creator Credit: Olivia West 4 Many were horrified by the news and expressed their "disappointment" Credit: BBC There will be three brand new episodes, whereby Stacey, 38, will meet three families, including controversial OnlyFans creator Lily Phillips, 23. Posting on social media, U&Original took to Instagram to share the news - but it's left people totally divided. Alongside a snap of the red-haired presenter and the sex worker, who is known for bedding 101 men in just one day and recently completed a horrifying sex challenge in a bid to one-up Bonnie Blue, the channel penned: 'She is BACK! '3 families, 3 fascinating episodes, you're gonna love it.' While some were 'interested' by the idea of seeing Lily on their screens, others were stunned to see the show giving Lily, who recently sparked outrage after posting with her 'oldest fan' in a 'vile' stunt, a platform. The post has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 3,646 likes and 67 comments. One person gasped: 'Pretty grim giving that deviant airtime, not a single positive thing can come from the trainwreck of her life, screams if the worst click bait, expected better tbh.' Whilst another sighed: 'Really disappointing, just don't think Stacey Dooley should be promoting or giving this girl a platform. 'Lowest derivative entertainment, a real regression in content from you Stacey.' Meanwhile, a third joked: 'If she is sleeping over at Lilly Phillips' gaff I strongly suggest she gets the sheets fumigated!" Woman claims her dad was in 'homewrecker' Lily Phillips' sex challenge But at the same time, one TV fan wrote: 'Omg wow this will be so interesting!!!!' And another chimed in: 'Can't wait to watch it!' Viewers will see the Brit sex worker, who was recently slammed as 'fake' after fans spotted an issue with one of her many sick stunts, in the first episode of the sixth series, which is produced by Firecracker Films. Pretty grim giving that deviant airtime, not a single positive thing can come from the trainwreck of her life Instagram user Overjoyed at the news of the news episodes, Stacey Dooley beamed: 'I'm thrilled to be back for another series of Sleeps Over! 'Truly, it's such a loved format and people always remind me of their fave moments when I'm out and about. Former porn star shares advice for Lily Phillips LILY Phillips is a name many of us now know, thanks to her controversial plan to bed 1,000 men in 24 hours. The OnlyFans star is hoping to break the world record with the endeavour - a record currently held by adult film star Lisa Sparks, with 919 men. But adult film star Jasmin St. Claire - who's most famous for having sex with 300 men in 24 hours for X-rated 1996 film The World's Biggest G**g Bang II - has issued a word of warning to the 23-year-old to ensure she's regularly tested for sexually transmitted diseases. "I get a lot of OnlyFans girls on my podcast ... and the one common story is all of the different STD outbreaks in the business," Jasmin explained. "Like, I've never heard of half this stuff in my life. I'm like, holy s**t. Can a doctor from India cure that? "Like, seriously, because these are some weird things." 'We've got another three episodes that you're gonna love! The themes we touch on feel incredibly timely. 'As always, a sincere thank you to those families who agree to open their doors. Strap in!' Meanwhile, Emile Nawagamuwa, one of the show's commissioners, explained: 'The sixth series of Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over demonstrates the remarkable strength of Stacey's appeal as a documentarian and this simple, compelling concept. 'It has been three years since Stacey last slept over in the homes of UK families, and more people than ever have proudly chosen to break the rules and live life according to their own unique values. This series is going to be a cracker Jes Wilkins, Firecracker Films 'This series promises to be more eye-opening and enlightening than ever.' At the same time, Jes Wilkins from Firecracker Films added: 'To be making a sixth series of Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over in the current commissioning climate is one of the proudest achievements of my career and it's a testament to a wonderful creative and commercial partnership with Stacey and everyone at UKTV. 'This series is going to be a cracker.' The sixth series of Stacey Dooley Sleeps Over will air on U and U&W later this year. All episodes of previous series are available to stream for free on U.
