Preston and Chantelle split

Preston and Chantelle have announced they are divorcing ten months after their wedding, saying the pressure of their Celebrity Big Brother romance destroyed their marriage.

"Quelle surprise" as Preston's ex, Camille Aznar, who he dumped after meeting nobody Chantelle on Celeb Big Brother, might say. Preston and Chantelle have announced they are getting divorced just ten months after getting wed. The couple released a statement yesterday saying that they had decided to split "after much soul-searching and tearful discussions". They said: "We hope we can always remain friends and still love each other, but we both think we put so much pressure on one another to make our marriage work that it has ended up destroying our relationship. We know people will think we married too quickly on the back of 'Big Brother', but the truth is that, what anyone thinks, we did have a whirlwind romance but we were genuinely in love. We will never regret our time together. But we now both agree that we should go our separate ways. We are both young and we still have our lives in front of us". I'm guessing Chantelle didn't personally write the statement, but perhaps I'm being unfair. No, actually, I'm not.
