Loose Women star Linda Robson has said ‘enough is enough’ as she confirmed her marriage to husband Mark Dunford is over – after months of speculation the pair had split

Loose Women star Linda Robson has confirmed she and her husband Mark Dunford are no longer together.

The ITV daytime show’s panelist and Birds of a Feather star, 65, and her husband Mark had been married for 33 years – but now Linda has confirmed they have split as she said “enough is enough”.

Linda had sparked speculation of marriage woes for months as she spoke about her and Mark’s relationship on the show. Speaking in September, Linda said she was “not looking for anyone”, before swearing and saying she “can’t be f***ked”.

Now, the star has confirmed to Woman magazine she is single. She said of her ex-husband Mark: “He’s a really good dad and we had some good years, but enough is enough.

“I’ve got my family and my kids around me. And I’m going on a cruise with Lesley Joseph in November. I’m keeping busy. I feel fine. I’m just going away on trips all the time.

“I’m not interested [in dating] honestly. I can’t be a***d with all that.”

Linda sparked speculation of marriage woes with comments on Loose Women – one of which saw her discuss her sex life, as she revealed she and Mark had not had sex in two years. Linda said on the ITV show in June: “Can I just say I’ve been celibate for two years?”, before Denise Welch chimed in to add: “I know, but you’ve got to get with it.”

Linda then went on to say: “I know, you got me a lady friend,” before Denise confirmed she did make the purchase.

However, Linda had previously dismissed concerns over her marriage – insisting rumours she and Mark were no longer together as “rubbish”.

Discussing the speculation, Linda said: “That’s a load of rubbish. We’re still living together. We both love our kids more than anything else in the world, obviously you have a few hiccups in every marriage.

“We’ve been married 33 years so it’s not going to be all plain sailing, but we’re still together at the moment.” Then, in August, Linda made a cryptic comment about Mark and her marriage struggles as she made a dig at her husband when she discussed how she spent her weekend.

Linda and Mark first met when they were teens but didn’t begin dating until years later. She revealed in 2017: “I used to babysit for Mark – he was a couple of years younger than me… I was 16 and he was 13 and a half, and he was a bit of a pain, to be honest. And we lived in the street next to each other.”

The pair then became romantic after reuniting years later – when Linda was in the park with her eldest daughter Lauren, who she shares with her ex Tony Tyler. She once recalled how they bumped into Mark and a cheeky comment from Linda’s daughter later saw her future husband as her on a date. Linda recalled: “Lauren said, ‘Can you give us a lift home’, and then he asked me out on a date. So that was fate that day because I’d known him all my life and I’d never seen him in that way before.”

The chance encounter sealed their fate, as Linda said: “And I think if I hadn’t met him that day, I don’t know whether I’d be with him!” Linda and Mark then tied the knot in 1990. The couple went on to welcome two children together; Roberta, 27, and Louis, 31. Actress Linda also sadly suffered a miscarriage, which she first publicly spoke of in 2021.
