Boyzone singer Shane Lynch has split from wife Sheena White, moving out of their family home.
The 43-year-old boyband star revealed the intense conditions of the coronavirus lockdown fuelled the split.
Speaking to The Sun, the Irish crooner explained the couple were “at each other’s throats” during self-isolation.
He said: “We have had difficult times and are going through difficult times right now in this isolation thing.
“I’m not even in my family home right now because me and her were at each other’s throats. It wasn’t a good time or a good space.”
Shane and Sheena had been married for 13 years, tying the knot at an intimate ceremony in Kent.
Months before the wedding, Shane appeared on the original series of Love Island, but left the show early after realising Irish beauty Sheena was his “true love”.

The former flames share two daughters together, aged 11 and seven.
While Shane normally spends most of his time on the road, touring with the band, the coronavirus lockdown had created a strain in his marriage.
He told the publication: “I’m usually on the road and for the first time I’ve spent three months in my house.

“All of a sudden I’m at home a lot. You find out things about relationships and it can be very difficult. It can be a struggle.”
Speaking on Paul Danan’s Morning After podcast, Shane admitted he was hoping to repair his marriage down the line.
He said: “I’m praying every day me and my wife sort out our things and I get back to my kids.

“I pray the longer me and my wife are apart at this moment, during these difficult times, it builds a strongness so when we get back together life will continue to be amazing in the next 15, 20, 30 years.
“But I don’t know God’s plan. Just because I love her and I love my children, does that mean there’s something new for me in life? I don’t know. I have to wait my time.”
